why should people not celebrate occations for those who is JEHOVAS WITNESSES?

Answer 1

Since they deny so much of scripture, why would someone care what they think? Most of it is wrong.

Answer 2

I asked a JW once what his favorite holiday was. He thought about and said ;"Halloween" I said;"Halloween!!!??" He said "Yes, because that's when we don't answer the door." My ex-wife tried to be a witness. She sucked at it too.So did most of the others I had met.They are only human and their kids usually eventually rebel. But so do most others. They have to live in the same world we do. They try to be different and they are. They are right sometimes too. Like the end of the "System" which is about the monetary system and the system of government.Holidays are conformist and commercially manipulated anyway. They only celebrate Christs death as far as I know. Only the Chosen can take of the offering and Communion. So they ritually pass around the bread and grape juice and usually none or one of them eats it.They believe they will be Gods chosen to teach us or control us than. What-ever.There are supposed to be 144,000 chosen. Jesus was the arch Angel Michael in heaven and so on.Does it really matter? In the religious world you are chosen for something whatever that may be.Everything happens for a reason and so on. There are changes coming there's no denying that. Exactly what will be seen eventually and the truth will be known as to why and whom.Have a nice life anyway.

Answer 3

Jehovah's Witnesses practice strict political and nationalistic neutrality, so they do not celebrate nationalistic holidays such as Independence Day and Memorial Day.

Other holidays derive from false religion, and so are incompatible with pure worship as adulterating interfaith. For example, Easter derives from the pagan god Oestre and celebrates "rebirth" and "fertility" instead of commemorating Christ's Last Supper and death as Jesus commanded:
(Luke 22:1-22) [Jesus] dispatched Peter and John, saying: “Go and get the passover ready for us to eat.” ...14 At length when the hour came, he reclined at the table, and the apostles with him. 15 And he said to them: “I have greatly desired to eat this passover with you before I suffer; 16 for I tell you, I will not eat it again until it becomes fulfilled in the kingdom of God.” ... Keep doing this in remembrance of me.”

Seemingly innocuous holidays may have only a tangential connection with false worship, such as Mother's Day and Father's Day (although arguably derived from ancestor worship). Understated observance of these is not generally considered interfaith by Jehovah's Witnesses, but it is too easily misunderstood in some cultures.

Since such celebrations are not required in true worship, and can easily become a distraction, so Jehovah's Witnesses focus their attention elsewhere. In particular, they are focussed on the preaching work which *IS* a requirement for Christians:

(Luke 10:1-17) [Jesus] the Lord designated seventy others and sent them forth by twos in advance of him into every city and place to which he himself was going to come. 2 Then he began to say to them: “The harvest, indeed, is great, but the workers are few. Therefore beg the Master of the harvest to send out workers into his harvest.

Answer 4

Jehova Witnesses believe that holidays, birthdays, etc.. detract from their worship of God. They believe that it should be forbidden to celebrate these events.
