How many times did he use the words ASS and Shit? I lost count. That's the only thing left when they have no answers. Good work Mary.

take a look at the uh, 'discussion' i've been having with an obvious jw on youtube about the paganism of christmas.
the idiot at one point actually compared celebrating the birth of jesus with the nazis partying with hitler:.

wow, i've just seen my wife's copy of the jan 09 new format kingdom ministry.
can they get any more controlling?.
how to handle every part is detailed giving absolutely no room for any personal input or freedom to express any ideas other than copyrighted watchtower thinking.. .
I remember a local needs talk that said we don't need to use so much toilet paper when we go to the bathroom - I kid you not.
LMFAO

this is a re-hash of a post i made a few years back when i had only just 'left'.
but as time has gone by i have become even more convinced that the witnesses are, how can i put this, a fairly miserable lot.
it seems to me that what separates humans from other animals is our culture and traditions.
I think you hit it right on when you said that they "observe" and not celebrate the Memorial. In fact I believe in the NWT the scripture uses the term "as often" as you eat and drink. To me the term "as often" would mean more than just once a year. Just my opinion. Happy Holidays.

Right back at ya. Yes it did start last night. I raised a few glasses of wine and watched a wonderful concert I just recieved in the mail.

have posted this on the other thread but just making this one as well:
i need to let you know that dad passed away this morning at 8am.
he fought so hard but in the end they could not get his blood pressure to rise and he died of heart failure.
I am so sorry for the sad news. Your dad was such an inspiration to me when I was just coming out a few years ago. I cannot say in words how much he meant to not just me but all of us here. He will be greatly missed.

i was just listening to a tape by jay hess ( former wt writer ) on sixscreensofthewatchtower.
in the beginning of the tape he talks about how he was disfellowshipped for worshiping jesus.
he goes on to talk about heb 1:6 from earlier translations and the footnote from the reference bible and the use of the word worship.
Thanks Atlantis, this will go a long way with my brother.
