Star of Bethlehem
by HAL9000 inlast night my wife came home from a book study at which the topic of the star of bethlehem was raised.
she asked me (ubm) whether i was taught that the star of bethlehem was from jehovah (god) or the demons.
the response from her was that it was from the demons as (i think that this was the response as my interest was evaporating faster than ether) "the light shone on herod first" plus 1 or 2 other reasons.. first time i've heard this line.

Letter to family - first draft
by sass_my_frass inafter a few weeks of being very angry with everybody, making an ass of myself, and being rotten company, a few people told me to start sorting this hurt and anger out, and an effective way is to direct it to the people who caused it - the people who shun me.
so i might send them this, or some version of this, in a while.
in october we're going to the other side of the country where they all live, to see my darling nan and maybe close things with the witnesses for good.

Is there a better way to convince family?
by happysunshine ini've been thinking about this a lot.
i think a lot of people are like me (especially after researching the witnesses via sources like this board), in that they attempt to convince their family, weather directly or indirectly, that the wts is wrong.
while there is a possibility of this working, the chances seem small, at least for dyed in the wool witness families.

Lots of Bethelites Not Happy With Downsizing
by Seeker4 ini had a long conversation last night with an old jw friend whose sister and brother-in-law are bethelites since the 1970s.
she is an artist, and he runs a small but important department there.. we were talking about the bethel downsizing (my friend was well aware of it), and i told him i figured his sister and b-i-l would be safe due to the fact that they are now in their 60s and have something close to 4 decades seniority.
but he said no, that they were worried that they would be asked to leave as well, sent into the circuit work or as special pioneers sent where the "need is great.".
