This morning - a wonderful sunny spring day - Grandmunchkin #3, Wifey and I went 'garage sailing'. We encountered a nice little sale, that happened to be at the house of someone we have come to know from an uptown art business in our little town.
As we snooped, and shared a little polite conversation with the owner, lo and behold - up walk two of my former good friends - Marsha and Sally, both dyed-in-the-wool Witnesses. Marsha is partly my fault - I started the Bible study with her husband that ended them up as the religious fanatics they have become. Sally was Jw when I was practicing for my baptism questions in 1972. So, altogether, I have known both 'ladies' around 70 years total.
They spotted us and turned like they were avoiding a jackboot Nazi agent, trying to look nonchalant as they made a bee-line out of there without ever looking at anything.
The householder looked at me as if that was odd. I took the opportunity to anti-witness to Peggy. She said 'Oh well - I don't want customers like that. God is not like that!'
So much for letting your light shine. They showed just what hypocrites they are. There's one more person who will never listen to Jw's.
A good day!
