  hi everyone, the reason why i ask this question is (aka i've been defellowshiped for 16 years now) because within the past month my mom and brother and sister which are witnesses (after going to the famous assembly )have been bugging me, i've tried to do it in a nice way and tell my dear mother to leave me alone stop calling me and dont come around my house.

  she won't listen, i have never been close to my family or have had a relationship with them.. so it' doesnt bother me that they dont talk to me.

  but my point is that they need to follow their own rules.

  Sounds to me like your family misses you and are worried. I understand not wanting your kids exposed to that mess but maybe there is a happy medium somewhere for you.

  so it was time for the 25 year reunion of tawas area high school's class of '84.

  because i was class president, i've been responsible for throwing all the reunions we've held.

  while i come to michigan on business a few times per year, i don't usually make it all the way up to the little, northeast, lake huron tourist town where they live.

  Thank you very much, that is exactly the quote I was looking for. It's unbelievable that they would say such a stupid thing. And to say that masturbation could lead to being homosexual?!*% What in the world?

  "Happy day" as a Christmass substitute???

  by Albert Einstein in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  some years ago me and my wife we were visited by a relative and his wife (all jws...) ... it was few days after christmass...... upon arival they gave us nicely wraped gifts ..... we joked "wow how nice of you to get us christmass gifts...!".

  they replied: well it is not for christmass, but we were with our inlaws recently, and they have this nice tradition of celebrating "happy day".

  they held between christmass and new years eve ... you know, its good for kids, so when kids get back to school, they are not embarassed by not having any new presents... so we thought, its neat and decided to celebrate it as well ... how do you like the idea, it is not christmass, its just a substitute...????".
