Wot confuses me is >>>

Megamanager Benny Medina’s 50th birthday party on Friday night.Prince, I’m told, showed up late in the night and was quickly escorted to the second floor of the house, where Carey retreated after the cake was served ?????Huh??

Wots with JW's not recognising their own day off birth each year but they do celebrate others birthdays ? lol
(Just a silly thought)

Because, once Donny Osmond and I had this discussion, and We both agreed, that JW's can attend parties and give gifts, but they cannot celebrate their own birthdate's or recieve gifts. And when they die, they take a short nap or something. Then I told him that I loved his "Soldier of Love" video, and His Joseph stuff.

Not at all!

I was directing you there so you could contribute to the discussion. Also, many of your questions are answered there.

It was meant as a helpful gesture not an angry one.

Donny Osmond is a member of the LSD Church also known as Mormons. They celebrate birthday and Christmas celebrations freely.

Active JW's may not celebrate their own birthday or the birthday of another with either gifts, cards or participation at parties.

I was personally involved with JW's for many years. Celebrating or participating in a birthday party would be a serious judicial matter for an active JW if Elders were to find out or if he were reported by another JW.

Such judicial proceedings can lead to Disfellowshipping from the organization. This means the persons name is read out to the Congregation and active JW's are not to communicate with him. I have been present in the Kingdom Hall when several such announcements have been made. It was one of the reasons I decided to stop going to meetings, but that is another story.

I hope this helps.
