Conversation I overheard this morning...

2. friends
so this morning i decided to go see if i could find some interesting used books for my flight in a couple of weeks and i saw a jw from one of the local congregations...she didn't see me, even though she was directly behind me looking at the same section of books.

i'm not exactly easy to miss, but i digress.. she was on the phone and was talking about a few things that i found incredibly interesting.

firstly, i guess a woman that just got baptized last year is absolutely fed up with the org!

"Cemetery Witnessing" on Memorial Day

1. jw

i've been wondering if this is just something that's done in my area, or if people do it all over.. every year on memorial day, a lot of people meet for fs and then when they break into groups, they all discuss which cemeteries they are going to "work".

every major cemetery in the city is divvied up.

the idea is, they take a stack of small tracts (usually the what hope for dead loved ones) and they basically park the car in the cemetery and walk around handing them out to the mourners.

What Song Best Describes Where Your Life is Right Now?

self-explanatory title lol.

just curious what songs each of us identify with when it comes to where we are in life.

i think music is a great form of expression and sometimes someone else can sing it better than you can say it, know what i mean?

Could this set a precedent regarding the blood issue??

http://abcnews.go.com/health/autism/kristen-labrie-sentenced-10-years-prison-withholding-sons/story?id=13383251&cid=espnheadline.

this mother was sentenced to 8 to 10 years for attempted murder because she refused to give her 9 year old son his chemotherapy medication, and thus it resulted in his death.. my first thought was that perhaps this is a stepping stone to parents being held responsible for not permitting lifesaving blood transfusions for their minor children, no matter if it is on religious grounds.

this woman's excuse was that the side effects of the medication were "painful" for her son (yet his resulting slow agonizing death was much more painful).

OMG! My MOM is asking for info???

brief history...my mother (love her dearly) is the most devout (okay, brainwashed) jw i know.

wouldn't hear anything that would cause her to doubt.

my dad converted after 20-some-odd years, so i grew up with the "unbelieving father", my mom had the "unbelieving mate" and we were henceforth treated like dirt in the congregation...plus we were poor.
