cedar point
by J. Hofer ini've only ever heard of cedar point in watchtower publications and talks, don't know what it's like.
i reckon cedars stole his screen name from that.
what about a world shaking apostafest in cedar points, maybe jesus joins in with some new discriminating light.

staying a witness
by J. Hofer inthe other day i overheard a conversation about jws and somebody said jws don't celebrate birthdays.
the other one said he has a few friends who are jws and while they don't celebrate their own birthdays, they do celebrate his.... then a thought crossed my mind: what if those of us who did not switch to another religion and have a somewhat non-jw lifestyle (not that hard) just keep saying we are jws?
given that there should be more ex-jws than jws by now, how would that influence the public view of jws?.

Wikipedia sources
by J. Hofer ina few days ago i started editing a few articles on jehovah's witnesses in the german wikipedia, mostly to clarify some things about the disfellowshipping practise.
while my - carefully worded - changes were accepted so far i noticed the following problem:.
wikipedia needs secondary sources, preferrably scientific ones.

FSM: Austrian authorities accept colander as religious headgear
by J. Hofer inhttp://translate.google.at/translate?js=n&prev=_t&hl=de&ie=utf-8&layout=2&eotf=1&sl=de&tl=en&u=http%3a%2f%2fderstandard.at%2f1308681039222%2foesterreichs-behoerden-nudelsieb-als-religioese-kopfbedeckung-in-fuehrerschein-genehmigt.
this is google-translated from german.... a "pastafarian" insisted in having his license picture shot with a colander on his head.
it's allowed (for muslims for example) to have ones head covered for legal documents if it is a religious practise.
