In the 60s and 70s we were instructed to remain seated during the national anthem, raising of the flag, the Lords prayer and the singing of God save the Queen.

Cracking down on neutrality rules
by Addison0998 inmaybe i’m wrong, but when i was younger, when it came to the flag salute and the national anthem, we were allowed to stand with everyone else, as long as we didn’t put our hand on our heart and sing or speak along.
now in the march broadcast apparently witnesses are supposed to make an even bigger show of themselves by staying seated?
aren’t we supposed to be discreet?

Not sure about you folks, but when I have a 'party' we buy more than 1 kind of booze (vodka, gin, beer etc) - buying only 1 kind of booze does indeed signal personal use here folks.

Funeral Fashion
by ThinkerBelle ini have a funeral to attend for a non jw family member and the jdub family member reminded me that i should not wear black.
for the life of me, i can't recall where this belief came from in jw teachings and i'm born in.
is there something in print or is that just a personal opinion belief?

Our Italian congregation will be in trouble then - all the older sisters wear black to all the meetings, out shopping, in service = all the time.

Marijuana and JWs
by Thomasdam inso where does the cult stand on marijuana.
my wife just visited her parents who are jws and her dad who knows nothing about it said it was a gateway drug.

Super Uber mom was ready and willing to look at cannabis drops for her chronic pain. She certainly did not think or know of any restriction in medical use.

Last act as an elder
by silas hobbs ini was just reminiscing about the last thing i did as an elder.
after a painful awakening due to family matters,,deleted as an elder due to what i now have come to realize is normal children trying to be more than just zombie tag alongs who don't make problems for their parents and want to explore their talents and intellect.
mistakes and difficulties arise in families but real families do not resort to draconian measures when hormonally influenced children want to take a different path.

Is it OK to teach your children that Homosexuality is wrong?
by Thomasdam ini know a few family's who have left the cult but send their kids to a religious school because of the public schools teaching many times that homosexuality is ok. the bible is clear that its a sin.
there is no just love each other and its all ok. i don't believe in the bible or any religion.
i have a niece who came out as gay and i told her i don't care.

Vanderhoven - I assume your thoughts about sex within the marriage bonds extend to the gay marriage as well, in so much as having sex only with your committed/married partner?
Nathan - "I am no more hostile toward homosexuals than I am toward any other disabled person". Equating homosexuality to a disability is the most homophobic, ridiculous, backwards comment I have read on the subject in a very long time, and your comments to Littlerockguy are equally ridiculous.
Redvip2000 - thank you for your common sense response
