  i am relaxing in my lay-z-boy recliner, online with a laptop.

  our dog , sparky, is lying right next to me.

  he is a 12lb silky terrier- he looks like an overgrown yorkie .

  Have you ever said " Happy Hanukkah" to a Jew?

  we went out to lunch today and when the server brought our check he wished us a merry christmas.

  my six year old daughter piped up " we celebrate hanukkah".

  when the server returned he couldn't get out a " happy hannukah" - he stumbled for words- finally said something about a happy holiday.

  JW dead at 83- duped for his entire life

  by moshe in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i saw an obituary last week- and elder i knew from the beginning had died- a faithful jw dub to the end.. he was baptised in 1939. his parents were part of the russell movement and died claiming to be annointed.

  i just wondered how anyone could spend his entire life being duped by the watchtower propaganda.

  i left so many tracts at his kh in 1989-90, that they posted a guard in the parking lot to keep me from hand billing the cars.

  Are JW's too paralyzed to leave?

  by moshe in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i was contemplating how bad the news will have to be to get the jw's to quit the organization.

  then i remembered hurricane katrina and all the people trapped in the superdome for days on end.

  one guy acted on his own and stole a school bus to rescue a group and take them to houston.

  Are Jehovah's Witnesses parasites?

  by moshe in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i sometimes felt guilty when i was a jw by taking advantage of the system and not putting anything back.

  like schools- jw's want good schools for their kids but would never serve on the pta or other school committee.

  doctors- oh how they want the best medical care, but they discourage their children from getting an advanced degree to become a doctor.

  Why is drinking , Kosher for pregnant women?

  by moshe in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i know of all the strict dietary laws that g-d imposed on the jews.

  the witnesses always preach about g-d's wisdom.

  like, not eating pork protected his people from parasites.

  Last Two anointed JW's on life support at Bethel !

  by moshe in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i posted this last week on the e-watchman website .

  they didn't laugh much.. i looked on the internet and found that in 1935 you had 52,000 partakers, last year you had 8570..according to the wt, 1935 was the cutoff date for new anointed, after 1935 all are replacements.

  lets assume that in 1935 the average age for an anointed was 35 yrs, probably older, but this is convenient.

  Did you do a "mea culpa" ?

  by moshe in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it was hard to admit i was wrong about the wt org- my friends and family appreciated my apologies-( back in 1988-89) i finally got the kick me sign off my butt.

  my ex-wife just faded away- never to admit she was fooled or tell me i was right after all.

  i can still hope for a mea culpa from her, but i don't expect it.. shalom,.
