What a bunch of judgemental BS! I really hate how scrutinizing this group of people can be. You handled it well and I think it looks great!!

Heh...I bet I'd get the third degree if any JW I knew saw my Triple Goddess necklace

Chemical Emotions

Heck, I have a necklace of a little boombox and I was told by one person that it was too worldy. WTH?

Morbidzbaby

Oh CE, that goes for everything that they can pick on, though... Peace signs, a necklace with the sun and moon on it, etc... Those are "symbols of things in the heavens" and we shouldn't have them.

Makes me wonder what their justification is for drawing and painting pictures of angels in their literature... We couldn't have "images" of them in our homes (statues, figurines, pins, paintings, etc), so how is a picture in a magazine any different?

I had an album by The Cure on cassette tape when i was a kid and loaned it to one of my Dubbie Buddies. His mom found it and threw it away, claiming that "heavy metal" (her words) wasn't allowed in "their Christian household". Right. The Cure is about as heavy metal as Hootie & The Blowfish. I thought about having her listen to some real metal, just so she'd know the difference in the future.

Chemical Emotions

Morbidz, you're so right. I always wondered about that too.

(My "friend" once got annoyed at me for wearing a peace sign on a hairband)

Lol@ Low-Key lysmith.

LOL Low-Key Lysmith... My mom was the same way as that dubbie mom... Anything that remotely LOOKED "worldly" when it came to music was off limits. My brother had some AWESOME music...one day, she went through his room (he was 18), bagged up all of his tapes and CD's and dropped them off at a dumpster. When he and my (then worldly) dad went to go get them, they were gone. He's never forgiven her for that. He had so much awesome music. My brother is the one who introduced me to metal back in the days when it was new. Side note: As an adult, my mom almost shit herself when I walked into the house with my Disturbed Asylum t-shirt LOL... I mean, how evil do they make that character "the guy" look??

Morbidz,

When I was in High school, I found a giant box of tapes in a dumpster near my house, FILLED with awesome music. You didn't grow up in Sandy, Utah, did you?

Hee hee hee heee!!

My evil lil' mind just came up with a plan....

[I understand, this happened 20 years ago, but here's what ya coulda' done... ]

Get into her car without her realizing it - 5 A.M. on the Saturday when she's going to drive everyone out in service - extra credit if the CO or DO is visiting...

Tune her radio to the worst hard-rock/heavy-metal radio station you can find... Turn the volume up WAAAY high... And pull off the radio knobs, then put them back on - after greasing the interior of the knobs, or filing down the teeth that hold them in place... So it'll spin in place when she tries to change it, lower the volume, or change the station...

LOL @ zid...

It's the DEEEMUNZ!!!!!

Well, I don't call myself the "She-Devil" for nuttin'...
