    Has anyone heard actual evidence that they are or are not?

    (besides the absurdity of thier actions that the local elders would have to let slide)

    Do they even claim to be Witneses anymore?

    Yes they are baptized. Just this past summer one of the ladies thanked Jehovah for her win at the US open.

    "Yes they are baptized. Just this past summer one of the ladies thanked Jehovah for her win at the US open."

    How does this prove they are baptized.

    Whether they are or not baptized JW's, they will obviously march to the beat of their own drum. Any celebrity JW or not always is given different treatment and held to different standards

    See, this is what I have yet to see any real evidence for.

    Anyone can CLAIM to be a Witness, and thank Jehovah for a win, but that dosn't make them one in the eyes of the local elders.

    That's why I stated, how does this prove they are baptized?

    Last summer my uncle from Florida came up for an anniversary party. During his visit the serena sisters came up in conversation. He was joking about them and the way they act. He said that they are supposed to be going to his hall, but they are never there. I asked him if they were baptized and he said no.

    Thank you. This seems likely.

    Anyone know for sure one way or another?

    Breezy I've only ever heard people claim that no, they are not. But if Serena were baptised, she surely would have been disfellowshipped because A) She had her baby out of wedlock, and B) She subsequently married a non believer.

    Does it REALLY matter?

    Baptized or not they would be given special dispensation because they would "donate" $$$$$.
