And to prove it, the purple tv belly carried a purse (tinky winky just calls it his bag) and the antenna on his head was supposedly a homosexual symbol of some kind.

I believe Jerry Falwell started the anti-Tinky-Winky campaign on the basis that he had a purple triangle (a symbol of homosexuality) and carried a handbag. Of course we all know that a pink triangle was the symbol used by the Nazis for homosexuality. The purple triangle was the symbol for Jehovah's Witnesses. So obviously, it's not a handbag he's carrying but a bookbag!

Scully,

The story you related about JW's not purchasing specific pet food products as they might be contaminated with animal blood provided me with a funny flashback.

I remember years ago my brother sneaking into the kitchen pantry and snagging a couple of packs of Tender Vittles. You guys remember this cat food, don't you? It came in little packets that supposedly kept the vittles tender, hence the name. LOL!

My brother crept outside with those packets and hid himself away in the shed and began to eat them until he had downed at least three packets. I remember my Mom finding him and screaming because she was worried that her poor baby had consumed some blood products! Sheesh! It was weeks before she stopped worrying about that. She even went to the elders, as we know all good Witnesses do. :-)

Thanks for the memory, Scully!

Pork Chop,

I'm from Australia, and all the things the others have mentioned were considered no-nos here as well.

Hi Celtic

No Yoga!!! even if you didnt do the meditation bit, cos its connected to false religion. However, if you wanted to you could stretch and touch your toes to excersize...which is actually yoga...?

No saying cheers, or happy new year. That was such a downer on new year when we had a party anyway but just didnt say those things.

No body piercing or tatoos. No windchimes. No pink icing on cakes cos of the concineal food colouring (crushed beetles which obviously contains their 'blood')

oh how happy I am to be free!
