After reading many of the comments here, it occurs to me that many Jehovah's Witness parents are not really 'footstep followers of Christ'.

Were you beaten as a child?
by purrpurr ini've been confronting my mother with her dubious parenting skills (abuse) of me as a child.
particularly the beatings i would get with the wooden spoon.
not a light smack but hitting me as hard as she could for as long as she could.

The Egyptian god Thoth smarter then Jehovah?
by Crazyguy inwe can tell by the old testament and other writings that the jews and israelites used a lunar calendar.
thier neighbor to the east eventually switched away from a lunar to a solar calendar.
experts don't know exactly when but the egyptians watching the star sirius were able to make the change as early as 2700 bc or possibly as late as about 1100 bc.

Jehovah was just waiting for his son Jesus to be enthroned as earths King in 1914 in order to introduce the 'real' time keeping calendar to his faithful followers. Unfortunately , Judge Rutherford was pissed off that an angel gave the calendar idea to C.J. Woodworth and not to him, so he put the kibosh to it. We may have to wait another generation until the new 'overlapping calendars' teaching can be introduced.

Letter # 1 to the Governing Body of Jehovah's witnesses
by WITNESS-FOR-WATCHTOWER-REFORM inhere is my first letter i posted to the governing body.
i also hope that brothers on the writing committee who may be lurking on this site (and have some clout) read my letter and bring in change to this very flawed policy around confession of sins.. enjoy.
the governing body of jehovah’s witnesses.

No UNSOLICITED information or opinions are ever presented to the entire Governing Body(tm)...........EVER. Your letter is naïve at best. Sorry to be so blunt but you are 'pissing up a rope' if you think anyone at Watchtower headquarters would even give this letter a first glance. -

Now that Sophia has been carefully indoctrinated about Jehovah's views on homosexuality, it is now time for her to learn about Jehovah's views on incest!

DOES A BEAR SHIT IN THE WOODS?
My mother was a pillar of our Circuit. One of the 'older women' that would always be pointed to as a model Christian and devout Jehovah's Witness. I watched her break a Melamine plate over my oldest sisters head and knock her out cold (She did this 2 times but I only saw it one time). On many occasions she would whip my two older sisters with an electrical extension cord on their bare legs. She was a very overweight woman and used this to her advantage. Once she caught one of my sisters skipping school. When my sister got home, my mother knocked her to the floor, sat on her chest and then proceed to pound my sisters head into the floor. Once when she was mad at my brother, she knocked him over on his motorcycle. Good thing he wasn't moving! I was lucky enough to have her beat me about the head and shoulders with an old fashioned stacked heeled shoe once on the way to the meeting. I still have a scar behind my ear where she drew blood and never took me to a Doctor. Let me review: My mother hit or beat all of us with wooden spoons, extension cords, broom handles, plates, large carving knives, belts, small pieces of furniture, the metal hose from a vacuum cleaner, shoes, the bristle part of a hairbrush and just about anything that she could pick up and use. My mother sounds just like OUTLAW'S parents. She was a SAINT in her own eyes and her children were evil for 'making up stories about punishment that never happened'.
(If it were possible, OUTLAW, I would give your comment 100,000,000 likes for telling it like it REALLY was for many of us raised by unbalanced religious fanatics)

Close........but not exactly the same. Lots of 'so-called' Christian religions have or have had their own version of 'the cross and crown' symbol.
