Since public nudity isn't a mainstream part of modern culture, maybe JW brothers can start identifying themselves as a part of God's nation by snipping the ends off their ties.

"Circumcision is a sign to set you apart from the people of the nations"
by stuckinarut2 inwe know that the hebrew scriptures, or old testament states that the practice of circumcision (of males) was supposed to be yet another sign that set the jews apart from the "people of the nations".
but apart from so many odd things, how dumb is this?.
i mean, how did someone know if a male was circumcised or not??

Boom. Got the original hard copy of the Learn From the Great Teacher book. There it is, folks: the pedophile with the that trademark pinky ring. Can you see it catching the light?

Debating a Christian at work.
by pseudoxristos ina christian at work has been after me for more than a year to go to his church and be saved.
i like the guy and consider him a friend and have been politely trying to avoid the subject.

@Diogenesister Interesting vid! At around 11:00 she says that Richard Dawkins "is quite rude to people" and calls people "stupid". I don't know if I'd call being direct "rude" per se. And as for calling people "stupid"... I mean, if someone is willfully ignorant, not open to any reason, dogmatic and denying history IN SPITE of the surmounting evidence and irrationally rejects ideas they haven't even heard or examined yet...
Then sometimes you just have to call a spade a spade.

"We don't venerate idols or images!"
by stuckinarut2 inhow often did we as witnesses say something like this : "unlike members of false religion, who venerate or worship through statues or idols, we give our focus to jehovah!".
members of religious groups focus their religious adoration via an image or statue.
they do this in order to provide some sort of focus to their need to worship.. witnesses give extreme focus on the name "jehovah" .

Well, that's no good because a name is not tangible. Quick - give me all your jewelry! We'll melt it down and mass produce some blue and GOLD CALF rings.
There. That's better. We need a name we can SEE.

Halloween/holidays
by Jules Saturn indidn't know exactly which subject area to put this under, but i was curious about what you guys do around this time for holidays, particularly halloween.
my view on halloween in particular has always been as this pagan, demonic celebration.
even now that i discovered ttatt i still feel the same way i do about halloween, i don't ever think it's something i'd celebrate.

I can understand your aversion to the holiday. What former Witness wants to go out knocking on strangers' doors after a lifetime of doing that?

KH dedication
by stan livedeath incorrect me if i'm wrong--.
when a new-build or existing property is acquired for use as a kingdom hall----is it still the custom to have a sort of "dedication to jehovah" type of service ?.
if it is--what happens when the property is sold ?

@stuckinarut2 That giant stone statue of Buddha probably didn't look unlike the stone statue they have of Mark up at Warwick:

We missed you at the meetings...
by punkofnice inhow many times have you heard that trope?.
i found it more irritating than a dose of farmers on the bum.
i've even said it when i was a brainwashed jobo drone.

@ToesUp Identical situation for me. My mother plays that card a lot just so she can prove how "loving" and caring everyone is, even though I've become inactive. Yet, not one text message or phone call. Don't get me wrong - I'm relieved I haven't been harassed by such ones. I just can't help but notice how much it reeks of insincerity when my mother tells me that "so-and-so really cares about you. They always ask where you are," etc.
