Yes orangefatcat my mom is the same way it would break her heart to know that I wear a cross but like you said it just shows our love for jesus it is a shame that the wts has so many laws for how to worship God.

Yes I had some fun growing up with the witnesess at social gatherings roller skating partys and sports I did enjoy their association it was just that they looked at you differently if you were not baptized and also that they love to gossip,but I have to say we had some nice get togethers.The rank and file are nice people it is just those that are higher up sometimes can be a little holy roly.

Yes I can say that when I was younger the brothers and sisters did all they could to help us the elderly also were very nice,my mom was a single mom so we were the fatherless children and I think everyone did the best they could to help us with rides to the meetings and association.

The elderly
by moses ini feel for the elderly who have put all thier hopes in the society and now really have no one to turn to.my mom is reaching 70 and was converted in the late 60s she still believes it is the truth but i think because she has nowhere else to go i think it is true also for all the elderly in the hall i bet some still believe some of the old doctines and have no idea about the new ones but are still hanging on because they feel thier is nowhere else to go, they basically sacrifsied thier lifes for the organazation.
