  Holiday questions

  i have been thinking about some things, and realized i can't remember ever being given good reasons for not celebrating certain holidays... i was wondering if anyone here can help out with this.

  jw's like to complain about origins of certain holidays and have come up with a bunch of reasons why they are bad, (such as birthday's and christmas) but there are others that all i've ever heard is just not to take part, or that jehovah doesn't like it.

  even though i was "raised in the truth" i can't remember ever hearing why.....

  my little sister just called to inform me the she has completed her baptism questions and is scheduled to get dunked in a few months.

  there's not really anything i can do or say about it because she's a minor and in my oppinion not old enough to make any life long commitment.

  anyone have a similar situation?

  i got this in an e-mail from a childhood friend that is still an active jw.

  i found it to be very upsetting and was wondering if anyone else gets the kind of e-mail forwards from friends/family that are still in?

  and how you handle it.
