Originally posted by FMF I was asking roigam whether he celebrated birthdays as an individual poster here in his own right.
If he has the same answer as you on account of being a member of the same non-stock corporation (with its HQ in New York) as you are, then it's no skin of his nose or off my nose if he simply says so.
In fact, I'm not sure what the skin on your nose has go ...[text shortened]... em to have jumped in for some reason.
Do you also send your birthday wishes to the web site?
No you were not, you knew that he was one of Jehovahs witnesses and framed the question directly at him in a cheap attempt to make something of the fact that children are involved. Have you asked anyone else whether they celebrate the birthdays of their children? no? making a mockery of your ludicrous claims.

Actually, I don't know what answer roigam was - or is - going to give. I found it interesting that he - a JW - participated in the sending of his anniversary wishes to a web site on the occasion of it's 15th birthday... so perhaps he will answer my question differently from you.

I asked him because his participation in this thread is somewhat of a surprise, seeing as he is a JW. If he explains that he feels permitted to wish inanimate objects or intangible things like a web site 'happy anniversary' or 'happy birthday', then I will have learnt something new. If you wish the web site a 'happy anniversary' I will be surprised and will perhaps ask you about.

Is the celebration of birthdays not considered in the same way blood transfusions are then; I.e. a matter of personal conscience?
I don't understand why you won't answer this question.

But who else's sending of a 'happy anniversary' message - as he has done on this thread - has been a surprise? Perhaps he's like Beauroberts - a JW - who had a blood transfusion, which - as far as I know - most JWs would not want to do.

you have been caught asking question that you already knew the answer to with the sole intent of using it to make something of the fact that children are involved.

But I did not and still don't know what roigam's answer will be.
And I don't know the answer to this question, either:
robbie, do you also send your anniversary wishes to the web site on the occasion of its 15th birthday?

tell us why you use the term cult to describe Jehovahs witnesses.
I wonder if roigam or robbie carrobie are going to return to this thread. Especially roigam, after getting feedback from Robbie carrobie. Perhaps carrobie thinks roigam has made an error...
