  The Purpose of Christmas/Hannukah/Kwanzaa/Winter Solstice

  by cruzanheart in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  this is my very first time celebrating christmas, and i am enjoying the season just as much as my children.

  what i see is the joy of giving.

  i know there are over-crowded malls, harried parents, worried people with not enough money for what they want, or no money at all.

  More push over "bad assoc." online

  by Mysterious in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  it was at the meeting i ducked out of yesterday, mom told me all the highlights.

  apparently they are starting to crack down on online gaming because it lets you associate with "worldly" people.

  this was further extended to chat (which they have been after for years) and online communities.

  The new children's book.

  by l3gi0n in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  i was reading through the new kids book released at the assembly, and couldn't help but notice the chapter on birthdays.

  it went on to explain that people were beheaded at birthdays, and that god never said to celebrate them.

  it then quoted the catholic encyclopedia as stating "only sinners... make great rejoicings over the day on which they were born" .

  Ghosts and Hades: Another Watchtower Deception

  by metatron in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  what did the jews in jesus' day think about the soul and hades?.

  if you read the watchtower, you might think that they dutifully followed jw teaching.

  and had no idea about immortal souls or ghosts or punishment in hades.. .
