11 if a workmate asks, for example, why we do not celebrate birthdays, consider: could he be wondering whether we are allowed to have a good time?
or might he feel that our position will dampen the company’s team spirit?

i have a question about this article.. https://www.jw.org/en/jehovahs-witnesses/faq/jw-education-school/.
higher education can lead to moral and spiritual dangers.
a bible proverb says: "the shrewd one sees the danger and conceals himself.
The JWs condemn higher education all the time.
But then they always turn around & reap the benefits of those who have it.
Why is that?
They reap the benefits,,but deny such education of their members(victims).
If you tune into SixSreens on Saturdays,,,, the host Rick says covid19 was the "killer" for the Borg.

The birthday & holiday ban is an isolation tactic
Which the borg has adopted over the decades to enforce its members isolation techniques from "normal citizens".
Manipulating members and keeping them in the cult mentality.
To put the cult in place of family.
And,,,of notable mention to make more money $$$ flow in to the contribution boxes,,instead of family wholesome things like presents, Xmas gifts & good food.

The Borg has just picked and picked what they deem to be pagan,,this goes back to Rutherford era which has been passed down over generations.
Actually,,,everything you do, day to day has pagan origins.
The Borg assigns flimsy,unbiblical, biased arguments against holidays, birthdays and such.

By design?
Good observation. Make your life as cumbersome and as difficult as possible. Work,work, work, work,work make it horrible and put that paradise in the future,, a mirage.
It fits that carrot and stick mentality beautifully.
