So I made a couple of comments on my older brother's FB and I think I might have gone too far.
A little background. My Brother is a pretty popular guy... I am about a year younger than him and although we currently live on opposite coasts of the US., I know most of his JW friends. He has about 600 FB friends and is on his page daily making announcements on there as if he's Ashton Kutcher talking to his fans....or something. He also makes all these "encouraging" JW comments like " Great Assembly progam today guys...just what we needed !" and then all his friends "like" his comment or make simmilar comments of their own such as ."What a banquet Jehovah provided for us to feast on"
He has told me that he doesn't think JW's are the only truth and he doesn't believe the GB is correct on a lot of matters, yet he has no problem acting as if he's a full fledged believer. He is a fun guy and has a lot of friends and pretty much does and believes what he wants and finds a way to justify it all. He's been married 3 times and never was even so much as reproved. Each wife gets younger as he gets older. His current wife is another pretty young 27 year old and is 6 months younger than his only daughter. (Daughter not happy, Wife jealous of Daughter)
Anyway he had a milestone birthday this week as well as his wedding anniversary. He went on FB and talked to all his fans about how quickly time flies and how he manages to keep a youthful outlook and shared all this other corny wisdom with them. Many of his JW friends said "Happy Birthday....can't wait till we're a thousand years old and are still young etc." Then he'd reply with " That's right my brutha' we'll only be just beginning " yadda yadda. (since when is Happy Birthday an acceptable JW expression I wondered? )
All his friends are chiming in, one after another, about living forever and the new system being so near.
So I got on there and simply asked..." Hey....where's my Lion ???"
I checked back a few hour later he replied " Lion....what Lion Bro ?? "
I said. " Weren't we supposed to be perfect by now and have our own pet lion ...the Paradise Book said we'd all have our own pet lion....where's my Lion, we' ve been waiting our whole life for this Lion and we aint gettin' any younger? "
It's been days now and what was once a lively conversation has come to a screeching halt. There have been no further comments and I'm not sure if I should lay low or call him. Do you guys think I went too far and maybe embarrased my Brother? Maybe I was out of line butting into his conversation. I Hopefully he won't unfriend or unbrother me.
