Hypocrisy on holidays, etc.
by Rebirth ini was just thinking about how hypocritical it is for jw's to declare things like birthdays, christmas, easter, thanksgiving, etc.
as defiled because of their roots.
their roots, their beginning, in the days of russell, are the things that they find disgusting today (the cross, birthdays, blood, etc.).

I should have taken the blue pill instead.
by ColdRedRain inever since i left the borg, a lot of bad things have been happening to me.
my family turned against me, i lost all of my friends, and i've gotten myself into one bad relationship into another because i really wasn't taught how to have a relationship outside of the jws.
i almost even ended my life because of this crap.

Knocking documentary email
by Rebirth inso it appears that many local pbs affiliates are refusing to air knocking according to an email i got this morning from the producers.
he beseeched jws to call their local station and ask for it to be aired because "other programming directors might get a skewed impression that the community does not want to see knocking, based on only receiving negative calls and letters about jehovahs witnesses.
they may have never heard from actual jehovahs witnesses.

Making you own traditions in the Holiday season.
by free2beme inmost of the time, a tradition is something that is passed on to you, from the way you were raised and the traditions your parents taught you.
some, can be as simple as reading, "the night before christmas" on christmas eve night or as complex as making sure to eat certain items in your christmas meal, following a recipe passed down from generation to generation.
where does one find tradition, from a family that spent the christmas holiday going to meetings, or sitting around watching television?
