WT says-
However, it is the custom in some countries to put up wind chimes with the thought that they will keep evil spirits from entering the home. Obviously, a Christian would not make use of wind chimes for such a purpose.
Of course not. Instead, a Christian would be advised by an elder to get RID of wind chimes with the thought that they might allow evil spirits to enter the home!
What a bunch of superstitious nuppitys....

My study conductor told me
Well there's the source of the problem. Stop 'studying' with those superstitious people. They do not have 'truth'. It's just another Adventist sect.
And why do you have a 'study conductor' when you said a month ago on this forum that you were about to write your "DA letter"??

The witlesses can make you throw away anything. Wind chimes and chess were once banned, at least regionally. Brother Hounder can still make you throw them away if that thing thinks Demons will be attracted to it. Ignore it and keep the wind chimes, or even put them away in lieu of throwing them away, and "brazen conduct".
They can do this with anything. The washtowel might mention specific items, but the hounders can mention anything. Try pulling out a Fenix LD22 flashlight the next time you are at an a$$embly and they get a blackout. Try getting LED lights for your home. All it takes is one idiot to think this is materialism, react with envy because you have something useful and they don't, or start a trend of getting those items (and yes, witlesses do start such trends because they cannot do more traditional trends), and you are stumbling others. Never mind you got out of the a$$embly safely while others, stumbling in pitch dark, wound up in the hospital and spent more than your light. Never mind the fire Brother Hounder gets when its squiggly thing dies with one. Never mind your lower electricity bill, and your LED lasts longer and meaning fewer trips up that ladder just when you are getting ready for field circus to replace a blown bulb.
Not to mention, gold and silver. While you probably won't be expected to throw those items away, you will be expected to donate them. Donate it while it is only 18 toilet papers an ounce, they get 18 toilet papers of benefit (while you get nothing), you are deprived of an asset that potentially has more than 900 billion toilet papers of value when hyperinflation becomes reality. You de-prepare, the silver loses its value because it is wasted, and everyone loses. Keep it, and you might be "stumbling" someone by making them think it's proper to invest in gold and silver. Or, they might decide it's "brazen conduct" to keep it after you were hounded to donate it.

I always liked wind chimes too. I didn't care what some fanatical,demon obsessed Witness thought.
I once bought my mother a wind chime that was the sun and moon,hahaha,that caused a lot of raucous when the car group stopped over. But,she still has it up after all these years.
