Armistead, first, condolences on the loss.
The title you gave, I originally thought it was going to be some senseless rant against religion in general. Curiosity got the best of me and I read the post. I worked with many JW's and they are that way. Their belief system is so tight, that they honestly believe that their's is the only way. There is no room for discussion, nor admitting wrong. It's a shame that family members argued over how a funeral should be done. To me, the father should have had any all authority to make the decision. JW's church elders should not even have been there, then again, I have no respect for the JW church anyway. I'll add the family to my prayer list that they learn to get along better and all goes well for the services.
