by WontLeave inam i the only one who notices a couple of problems with this?.
first of all, passover is on 15 nisan, not 14.. the sheep should prove to be sound, a male, a year old, for you.

what about the statement in one of last years study artcle that evidently Jesus did not partake that. to me since he also must celabrate the passover and that he is instituting something that he and his apostles would be part of he must have partook?
It would make sense that he didn't partake. Why he would need to "ymbolically" consume his own blood/body or take advantage of his own sacrafice the same as his apostles would ?

Thanks CL...do you know if they try to explain why they say that Judas left beforehand ? It seems so obvious that he was there....they must have a good explainaton or else they really messed up. I mean this is their one big celebation...if they missed this detail...what else did they get wrong?

WontLeave Can you tell us which publication it is you have shown in your original post? Are there other publications that also state that Judas left before the bread and wine were passed around ? Hopefully there are some recent publications that show this otherwise they'll excuse this and old light.
Thanks !

In the July 15th WT about Apostates did any one notice that they use the same illustration they used in the Movie Doubt
by life is to short indid anyone notice that in the july 15th wt right after the apostate article the next one is entitled "scattering feathers in the wind.
" it is the exact same illustration that philip seymour hoffman used in the movie doubt to meryl streep when she was accusing him of molesting the boys at the school.
the wt says it is an old jewish tale.

Good question Minimus...I have thought about this too.
Getting DF'd would put a period at the end of this run on sentence as to where I stand with them. It would also make it appear to my still "in" family members and friends who still talk to me, that they have the official green light go ahead to start the shunning process. It would be interesting to see if they would really do it.

walter breuning's earliest memories stretched back 111 years, before home entertainment came with a twist of the radio dial.
they were of his grandfather's tales of killing southerners in the civil war.. breuning was 3 and horrified: "i thought that was a hell of a thing to say.".

Interesting to note that his own parents died relatively young....goes to show ya, there doesn't seem to be any pattern to these things.
Can you imagine going from a life in the horse and buggy days to a time when traveling in cars, air planes and space shuttles is commonplace? Not to mention the invention of the telephone, Cell phone, television, computers and all the medical break throughs that have happened in the last 114 years.

The classic features of a JW wedding are:
by highdose infirstly a wedding/sales talk that mostly features heavily on how the woman should behave (hint, doormat) and lightly brushes over the fact of the husbands bevhaviour ( oh yeah he should treat her well).
the reception normaly at some crummy comunity hall with yellowed ceilings and chucks of damp plaster falling off the walls.
the seats normaly arranged facing eachother all around the edge, so that theres a huge unused space in the middle and everyone is climbing over everyone elses legs to get to their chair.. a big spread donated by everyone, normaly an ode to food poisoning.

Apparently the whole marriage was doomed from the start and ended up being annuled about 6 weeks later ...but that's another story.
You can't tell part of the story and leave us hanging like that!!! What happened???
I left it out because it's a pretty sad tale. It seemed inappropriate to include the sad part with the kind of slapstick things that happened at the wedding.
Anyway...the groom was in his late twenties or early 30's had only recently studied and had been baptized. He had no Witness family and had only met the bride when he started coming to the hall. The Bride had grown up as a Witness but was from a really weird family. I never knew them because they were the type you steered clear of...wouldn't even want to know them just based on their appearance and behavior. (red flags all over the place) She was the only seemingly normal one. I knew her from other kids that had grown up with her. Unlike her family she was slim, clean and kind of pretty but she always seemed sad and worried. Even though she was only about 20 at the time of the wedding, she seemed to be carrying the weight of the world. She walked down the asile as if she were going to the gallows.
It turns out she had been molested throughout her life and never could tell anyone about it. Because of all the burdens and grief carried as a result this, she couldn't bring herself to consumate the marriage so they just called the whole thing off. She is older now and still single and a pioneer last I heard.

Tell Us About Your JW Father If You Had One.
by new boy inwe are great friends now....but he wasn't much of a father growing up.. worked all the time...we went on few vacations....pretty much pussy whipped my my nazis jw mother.. he never did believe in the whole jw thing.
he just when along with it, for my mothers sake.. she never did respect him for not being a "spiritual head" and pretty much let us kids know about it.. i, like my mother became very self rightious and judgmental.. i wished now he had just came to me just once and said "keith maybe the jws are not the people you think they are.
" but he was to afraid of my mother to say that...even though he knew it to be true.i would have never believed him....back then....but it would have planted a seed.... .

They raised 5 kids in a decent style even though my father only had an eigth grade education. He was always soft spoken and gentle (and often emotional) - hugged and kissed us kids and always told us how much he loved us. He made my sister and I (and mother)feel like the most beautiful, refined women in the world
Magwitch: What an awesome thing to be able to say about your Dad. That single statement alone says just about all a father could hope to hear from his child. It would be cool if you could put that in a card and give it to him.
My Dad was a soft spoken gentle guy too and wasn't afraid to hug or snuggle with his kids or at bedtime quietly sing a little song in our ear that he made up himself. It was hard to terrible to think of him being killed a Armegeddon because he didn't get baptized.,but we did. I wish he was here so I could tell him something like what you said about your Dad, but I think he knew anyway.
