Spanking is different from beating the shit out of a child. I was spanked, not beaten, the spankings were deserved.

If THIS MAN were a Jehovah's Witness 2 million babies would be dead
by Terry injames harrison has magical blood.. specifically, his blood contains an extremely rare enzyme that can be used to treat babies dying of rhesus disease.
if you've never heard of that disease and figure it's not a big deal, well, wait for the numbers.. harrison, being a generous type, has donated his rare, life-saving blood roughly 1,000 times over 56 years.
this has saved the lives of--seriously, you're not going to believe this--over two million babies around the world.. .

blondie! Excellent, as usual. I will definitely have to work some of your points in conversation with my hubby. He mentioned what paragraph 11 said about Solomon being married before he was king, but he failed to use your reasoning about why weren't his parents concerned with him marrying an unbeliever. You are so smart! Also, the points about Solomon having suffered no bad consequences for his actions, were very interesting.
Thank you for your insights.

by PaintedToeNail inmy spouse and i had supper with some long time friends this evening.
we got onto the subject of baptisim, and out of the four of us, we all got baptized for some other reason than love of jehovah.
i find this to be really sad.

mouthy-so many of us got baptized because of guilt. I felt guilty that my dad wouldn't go to my wedding.
Tater-T-good for you!

My spouse and I had supper with some long time friends this evening. We got onto the subject of baptisim, and out of the four of us, we all got baptized for some other reason than love of Jehovah. I find this to be really sad. I was baptized because my father said he wouldn't go to my wedding if I wasn't baptized (1st marriage, lasted 4 horrid years). My hubby got baptized because his parents told him it was time for him to get baptized. My girlfriend got baptized because everyone else was, and her hubby got baptized because his friend did the year earlier and he was starting to get some heat from people in the KH.
Not one of us got baptized because we had love for Jehovah and wanted to serve him forever. This is sad. The WTBTS claims that its people get baptized because of wanting to serve God forever, and because of love for him. I have met more people who were pressured into baptisim, or that they were expected to get dunked, so they did, than I have of people who wanted to serve god.
How about you? What were your reasons for getting baptized?

Thank you fade_away-makes sense now. Very gracious of you both, it was rather rude of them to try to make you feel guilty.

I'd like to know why you were standing too. Do you normally stand while eating? Why didn't you join them at the table? It would make me uncomfortable to have people standing while I was sitting down to my food.
