  Well, single sisters. This one was for you. The society is showing us how to bring in fresh men to marry you.

  Your patience is well awarded, because this one article is going to make a difference.

  Thanks, Blondie.

  This really is great research, friends. I got a chance to research this subject this week, with a discussion with my good friend, Mosche.

  I learnt quite a bit about the Jewish calendar.

  If it exists, I would really like to see the article where Franz or Rutherford changed the date of observing the Memorial to Nisan 14.

  i was traveling and used my credit card to buy a gift at the airport.. so the lady behind the counter flips my credit card over to look at the signature and it says "see i.d.

  " where my signature belonged.

  she asked for the i.d.. .

  Well, if they don't allow credit cards, with the exception of church contributions, they make up for it in allowing you to wish someone, a happy new years. That sounds fair, doesn't it?

  Forget it.

  It sounds like it would require too much work.

  Any other ideas?

  This brother served in a congregation with Elders that were not, "Yes men". I remember serving in congregations that had men that thought and acted. Now a days, the Elders are being conditioned to not question the Society. The appointments are based on hours in the ministry, and obedience to the GB. But, that is why many are deleted due to poor marriages, Burn out, immorality, and lack of Zeal etc....

  Good observation, Nugget.

  They probably think that the members are weakening, or giving up on their crazy hatred scheme towards people that wish to be different.

  I know that the laws uphold this useless practice, and for this reason this war will continue.

  In our cong many are touched by this problem, and I know that people will do what they feel like doing in their hearts. Yes, Yes,....The scripture says, "the heart is treacherous"...but, the scripture also says ..."man(GB) has dominated man to his injury".

  Good job, Blondie....You had me at your opening comments. Kind of reminded me of how I was treated as child. I too, had an unbeliever for a father, and a beleving mother. I do remember the isolation among the kids who had both parents in the faith. I also remember how they turned out.

  Thanks
