"always" ...." fully responsible" . This is a bit vague, I get your point , but...who is going to judge who is responsible? surely it would have to be a bonafide Zen master to make such a judgement, no?

You think I'm out to appeasae the souls of the dead? your nuts, why taint this wonderful celebration of all that is good, positive and creative for our children?
Give it a break, You think the rest of the forum is not familiar with your agenda?
Say something funny instead, bring joy, break taboos and if you cant do that , dont respond unless you have a genuine objection.
Yeah, I'll have fun.
Yeah, I'm promoting ancient Celtic festivals 🙄 Gosh, man, why respond at all? I guess you cant handle the truth, and feel the need to put down others pleasure. What a jib!!
Why dont you check out my other thread (wanna larf), and tell me you think?
This is getting nowhere. And dont respond to this one-I wont respond to you. In fact, I'll start another anti-JW thread to give you another workout😛

I want to hear you say it, where and why. If you cannot , will not, are unable to, say nothing less you incriminate yourself I shall provide the details for you. I have no agenda, did i not say, you are free to enjoy it, well then, stop whining! indeed one wonders why you have brought it into spirituality forum, if it has nothing to do with a religious or spiritual context. Do tell.

For those that cant judge clearly , the guidance of a proper teacher is invalueable- until they can judge clearly for themselves , of course.

Lets just go back to slavery, oppression of women, etc. while we're at it.
This is the 21st century.
What the hell is wrong with you? "Pre christian" ?Good!! Christianity is ..oh forget it. You know , take away the fun for kids and..."idle hands are the devils plaything" . What do you recommend instead. JW indoctrination? assimilation? Spare me Rob! You are a troll and a hyprocrite.

Originally posted by karoly aczelis that it, nothingness? emptiness and shallowness, 'i dont care', well well, why did you post it in the spirituality forum Karoly if it has not a spiritual dimension, more spam, more trolling? please try to answer the question without recourse to the usual petty, irrelevant and quite frankly juvenile remarks, hard as it may be for you to realise, some persons do care, that you are not one of them is hardly significant, is it. So why did you post it in the spirituality forum? I suggest you take you remarks and put them where they belong, as for being a hypocrite, well well, at least i can tell my kid with honesty where a festival originated and why a festival is celebrated, nor do i need to dress it up in the usual emotive and quite frankly misleading guise of, 'its for the kids'.
