  From the current beacon of knowledge, the FDS web site:

  http://www.watchtower.org/library/rq/index.htm?article=article_09.htm

  5. Physical Cleanness: Because they represent God, Christians should keep their bodies and clothing clean. We should wash our hands after using the toilet, and we should wash them before eating meals or handling food. If you do not have a proper sewage disposal system, toilet wastes should be buried. ( Deuteronomy 23:12, 13 ) Keeping physically clean contributes to good health. A Christian's home should be neat and clean both inside and outside. It should stand out in the community as a good example.

  So I could have gotten disfellowshipped when I was riding my mountain bike out in the hills and got diarhea? I wish I could go back in time and confess my sin.

  Aw shucks! Everyone knows I'm like a regular man in a skirt.

  I fart, burp and sure as hell forget to flush the toilet after a good ol fashioned dump... you know the kinds that make you feel like you just had your colon cleaned out and you didn't even have to leave the comfort of your home.

  Ahhhh... the simple pleasures in life.

  Of course, we realize that God's instructions for burying poop were given to the Israelites as they wandered in the wilderness. According to the Bible, the camp of Israel had a population of around 2 million people. That's about the same population as the greater Vancouver or Cincinatti area. Just imaging if you lived in Vancouver, and every time you had to go to the bathroom, you had to walk outside the city limits, dig a hole, crap in it, cover it up, and walk back.

  Why did they feel they had to write this?

  The article sounds like they are talking to a five year old!

  It's all part of the "if you read the Watchtower and Awake for a couple of years, it's the equivalent of a college education." I guess that about does it for my health class.
