FDS, Holy Spirit, the Mole and Tinkerbell
by cameo-d inas an outsider, it appears to me that this fds is kind of like a tinkerbell fairie.
and i wonder if according to wt, the holy spirit is portrayed in a similar light.. a jw once told me that the fds "reports" to the "(gb) authorities" concerning the acts and behavior of the congregation.
so at first i wondered if this was some kind of "mole" in the group.

Why do christians "CELEBRATE" Gory Murders?
by cameo-d injohn the baptiser has his birth feast day six months prior to christmas eve, on june 24. this celebration is one of the oldest, if not the oldest commemorating a saint.
the celebration of the beheading of st. john the baptist, august 29, is nearly as old as his nativity.. liturgy.co.nz.
several florida churches said they are celebrating the jewish holiday passover with seders reorganized with a christian spin.. http://www.upi.com/odd_news/2010/03/29/fla-christians-celebrate-passover/upi-29491269891482/.

New System Property Rights and Animals
by cameo-d ina jw told me that in the new system when all the "good people" who have ever lived return to live on the earth again, that there will be enough land on the earth that everyone will get about 1 acre to live on.
is this a wt teaching?.
in the system we have now, the number of animals you are allowed to have depends (in some places) on the amount of acreage you have.
