I was 12, my brother was 10, my sister was 8.
This article seems to be saying those ages are too young especially par 15 & 16. I still think it's something that only adults should do.

by Witness 007 ina self serving, self rightoues, judgemental fool who's favourite swear word is "fudge" did you know any "flanders" types at the kingdom hall.

Birthdays: Anniversaries of baby showers?
by alamb inwell, aren't they?
my jw father is arguing with me about holidays and birthdays so i asked him what baby showers were and how they differed from birthdays?
if mother's day and father's day are wrong, how is a baby's day (shower) not idolatry too?.

This thread has some really good points. JW's don't seem to understand that birthdays can't be idolatry. There's no worship involved. It's a day friends and family celebrate because they love someone and are happy they were born. Same with Mother's and Father's day. If it is idolatry than so is giving gifts at anytime.

It's the little things that start the exit. I remember a series of movies I loved being blasted from the platform. That was when I started...disengaging, guess I would call it.
Yep, not a bad thing at all.

How would they know who's on facebook? Unless they're on there themselves. Good for the goose, eh?

Jewish Rabbi: 'Gentile sperm leads to barbaric offspring'
by behemot inrabbi dov lior says jewish law prohibits sterile couples from conceiving using non-jew's sperm, as it causes adverse traits.
on subject of single mothers he says, 'child cannot be 100% normal'.
rabbi dov lior, a senior authority on jewish law in the religious zionism movement, asserted recently that a jewish woman should never get pregnant using sperm donated by a non-jewish man even if it is the last option available.

Deliver Us from Evil- Be warned though! It's about the Catholic sex abuse scandals and will break your heart.
Lord, Save Us from Your Followers- I love this one! Here's the blurb: In the spirit of wondering why we all can't just get along, filmmaker Dan Merchant takes to the streets to ask average folks about religious faith and why it seems to be such a divisive force in America's so-called "culture wars." In addition to man-on-the-street perspectives, the thought-provoking (and refreshingly civil) conversation includes input from activists on both sides of the ideological spectrum.
Waiting for Armageddon- I haven't seen this yet, but it's got good reviews.
