What would happen to a JW for celebrating Christmas?
by Vanderhoven7 inmark jones writes:.
if they were spied upon and it was reported to the elders they’d be “invited” to a judicial committee whereupon they’d be cross examined in a locked backroom by three men acting as judge and jury to decide if they are guilty.. .
if the elders decide that they are guilty, they’ll then decide if the person is sorry.

Would you be able to survive a three day Assembly?
by RULES & REGULATIONS inthe last assembly i attended was over 10 years ago.
the monotone speakers, boring talks, uncomfortable seats, long prayers and nodding off after the lunch break did me in.
i survived the morning sessions, but the afternoon sessions were brutal.

I was on the ball & bolted out of the venue just when the final dude finished his talk. Between then and the other guy coming on stage & giving his comments.

I remember in the 1980s they had 4 - day CONventions beginning with Thursday afternoon.
They even had field service arrangement in the afternoons on either the Thursday or Friday afternoon.
I remember a few perks like the Shasta cola or Sprite. Fruit bags,, potato chips & chocolate pudding which would help take the ""sting"',, out of the long afternoons.

You could celebrate Xmas in kind of a low key "not known" kind of way.
ie) not putting up a tree or decorations
But just roasting a turkey. Lots of fine baking,, small gifts & have a few non jw relatives or just friends over.

LHG;
You just hit the ball out of the park!!!
Because you know what,,,,most & I mean most JWs are NOT stupid people. Id say 99.999999% are NOT stupid people.
What you just said,,,the Borg dreads the fact if they dare figure this out.

Liam;
I know. Its just an illusion the JWs have
Its the same illusion they have with their ""perceived choice of worship" they have.
Its not a choice they have. Once they stop doing what they're ""told" to do,,,they're treated an entire different way.

The cult(Borg) puts itself in between members & their families.
By,,,shipping people off to far away lands instead of caring for elderly parents .
The shunning policy
& by scrubbing holidays & birthdays which forge family bonds
Because they cant have too much attention & focus on families instead of the Borg.

by BoogerMan innot just jw's, but countless others (evangelicals etc.
) are claiming that we're in the "last days.".
but........bible students/jw's have been spouting this fake message since the 19th century!!!!!!.

What Rutherford instituted in his tenure works for the Borg.
Celebrating any holiday takes away focus from the Borg.
It works to this day.
Same applies for birthdays,,mothers & fathers days.
Just think of the focus the Borg would lose by shifting focus away from ""them" to allll those birthdays. Also mothers & fathers days. Not to mention statutory holidays.
It works for the Borg. Why would they want to change it now? It takes focus away from them.
And,,,$$$$$,, money too.

Celebrating Xmas.
= nothing short of apostasy.
= subsequent disfellowshipping
& the ramifications that come with it.
