Interesting. But can be easily argued. All sects that evolved keep some of the customs of it's mother religion.

More Peculiarities of the English language.
by Clam inwe'll begin with a box, and the plural is boxes; .
but the plural of ox became oxen not oxes.
one fowl is a goose, but two are called geese, .

Now my wife would like to say something (she's not regestered yet)" Hi everyone... not too sure how this works... basically I just needed to talk to someone and feel that people can understand what an emotional day it's been for me! I'm the third JW generation in my family, everybody in my family is a JW, aside from me. I'm the black sheep of the family, always has been. My mom is very very serious about the JW, life without them there is no life at all... my oldest sister passed away a year ago, April 10th. I guess my mom thought it might make me change my mind about the JW since my sister was ''faithfull" till the end.... but it didn't change a thing, actually it just made me more angry about the whole thing! Anyways I'll talk about that some other time... what I am trying to say is that I announced to her today that I wasn't going to the memorial... and my goodness, she didn't take it well at all, especially since I am pregnant of our first child, I guess she figured, like my step-father said" we'd be responsible" and go back to the JW to raise our kid... yeah RIGHT! So I guess today was a real shock for her to find out we weren't going to the memorial. She really freaked out and asked me why, in her authoritive voice (created I guess by 64 years in the JW :) So anyways I told her I didn't see the interest in it and that basically every year they say the same thing over and over "if you only come to the memorial it's not enough" so why should I bother going, I don't see the point. She didn't like that at all and decided to end the conversation by saying "well I respect that and well have a nice day" and she hung up.
I felt really bad... I didn't feel bad cause I was missing it but because it feels like I am always dissapointing her and feels like I am making her cry wayyyyyyy too often! It's simply hard to acknowledge that she is the one causing herself all this pain, I guess she'll have all her friends tonight to hold her in her arms when she cries about it at the hall... I guess that is her "real family" since today for her, we sank really low!!!!
Anyways it was nice writting about it, hope I'm not boring your guys with this stuff, just had to get it all out! See you around."

I think I did a really bad thing.
by emilyblue ini do not attend the same hall as my boyfriend because he is currently reproved for being involved with me.
i'm not a witness.
he confessed to his elders that he had sex with someone outside of marriage after his second divorce was already final.

I think by now you realize this....and you also realize this guy is a loser. You deserve better than this....and HE does not deserve a wife #3 in his book until he grows up and stops blaming everyone around him for HIS stupidity.
You really need to cut the ties and move on as quickly as possible. He will cause you nothing but problems until then. I am being truthful about this for your own good. You can SEE what your future would be like if you let him stick around. Let us know how you are doing.....
Great words of wisdom. Do not be afraid to trust them.

Anyone else refuse(ing) to go to the memorial?
by Dune ini'm pretty sure that if i went today, it would give me yet another 6 months of peace at home.
but...i simply refuse to go to anymore witness events.
i talked to an ex-witness friend and she told me that even though she's df'ed and doesnt believe in the religion, the 'event' is only 45 minutes and doesnt see why i shouldnt go.

Emely, you did not screw him he screwed himself and if he realy thinks that his personal life is no body elses business, he's in the wrong religion.
