    Jehovah's Witnesses

    BURTCHVILLE TWP. -- Jim Shammus will be the speaker at 10 a.m. Sunday when the Jehovah's Witnesses meet at Lakeport State Park's north shelter. For details, call (810) 985-5546.

    I wonder what the rest of the story is about this?

    Gee, Blondie, that IS curious!

    Too bad nobody saw this sooner or I might have made a run to check out the circumstances yesterday ... the (810) area code is not too far from here. I wonder if the Kingdom Hall was out of commission for some reason? And isn't it odd for the JWs to have this announcement in the paper with all those other religions of "Christendom"?

    I know of meetings being relocated because of building work, ect, we had ourmeetings in school hall for two years. It was great having the meetings underneath a huge tree at christmas time! The change of location was always spread by word of mouth, and certainly not in a religious section. Is this a wind up?

    Jim Shammus will be the speaker

    The talk was all on "Creation". I think Brother Shammus was supposed to be giving a talk at the state hospital. Or was that "our" Shamus?

    The PO in my old congregation was a bethel elder; occasionally, when he would get sent out to other states as a speaker, they would have a special meeting out in a park.

    Aw, Crap!

    I knew that I would be found out one day.....

    Okay, it's me giving the talk, ok? I'm giving a talk on how to be more self-rightcheous and cause more division in the witness congregations by being more judgmental. In effect, it is about marking everyone in the congregation as "bad assosiation" and disbanding forever.....

    Shamus.
