This is a very bad article for several reasons: Joe Jackson has never been a devout Jehovah’s Witness.
According to JW funeral practices nobody really cares if you are buried a month later, if ever. It’s a sanitary problem…not a theological one. THE MUSLIMS have the requirement that bodyies should be buried quickly.
Michael Jackson, if he ever was, had not been one of Jehovah’s Witnesses for many, many years … he abandoned it after being totally seduced by the “Dark Side of the FORCE”. IF (IF) his entire family were Jehovah’s Witnesses, and to the best of my knowledge PERHAPS his Mom is the only one … it would not matter.
They cannot have JWs officiate over a Muslim, or whatever MJ was at death. Whatever he was…he was not one of Jehovah’s Witnesses.
He cannot have a JW funeral unless he was a JW in good standing at the time of his death.
My best friend’s son, who at one time was a JW, but left, and abandoned it, and died in a motorcycle accident. He could not have a JW funeral BECAUSE …. (drumroll please..) he was not a JW.
Unless The Watchtower Bible and Tract Society also gets seduced by the DSOTF, and goes apostate, Michael Jackson will not have a JW funeral either.
