Jackson family matriarch Katherine Jackson, 82, raised all 8 of her children to be Jehovah’s Witnesses. Even at the peak of his fame, superstar Michael Jackson continued going door-to-door spreading the scripture and handing out copies of The Watchtower. But Michael, who did not observe holidays or birthdays as a child, broke with religious tradition by treating his own children to lavish birthday parties at his Neverland ranch.
When Katherine Jackson took custody of Michael’s kids, Paris, 15, Prince Michael, 16, and Blanket, 11, after Michael’s untimely death in 2009, the children attended meetings in Kingdom Hall with Mrs. Jackson, went door-to-door as their father did, and encouraged their friends to convert to Jehovah’s Witnesses.
But, according to Radaronline.com, Paris and Prince have decided to stop going door to door.
From Radar Online:
Every Sunday, Paris, 15, and her brother Prince Michael, 16, would venture door-to-door in Calabasas, Calif., collecting donations for Jehovah’s Witness. However, in recent months, the pair has neglected their duties, and RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned that it was Paris who put an end to the good deed because she absolutely hated it!
“Paris resented going door-to-door to raise money for Jehovah’s Witness, even though it was what her grandmother wanted,” a source close to the situation said. “So, she dug her heels in a few months back and told Katherine she just doesn’t want to do it anymore – and Paris and Michael haven’t done it since.”

I KNOW kid’s are OFF LIMITS but this lil heifer gets on my nerves … that is all
why does something tell me she’s going to end up in porn?
She wants to be too grown for me
are Jehovah Witnesses like the Amish with their kids? do they get a chance to abandon it?

She wants to be too grown for me
===================
wants to be? chile she’s already there and it’s gonna bite her in the ass real bad…I see a Nicole Ritchie path with her, if she doesn’t die before finally maturing
kingstonn
you ready for graduation
I really wish that it were true that Janet smacked the taste out of Paris’s entitled mouth or that Joe used the belt on her. As a CHILD, you do as the adult who is taking care of you says. If you ever get too grown to tell an ADULT what you won’t do as a CHILD, then you need to move out and take care of yourself. At any age we are not above our parent’s or grandparent’s advice.
Wait what happened to my comment? I said there was 9 Jackson kids that mama Katie raised..right? Not 8?
I remember living in the projects and the Jehovah Witnesses would come and I would tell em “My momma said we ain’t here” thru the screen door.
so they get donations to print them Awake pamphlets, just for folk to get em being nice, and throw em away. that sounds kinda wasteful. chrisian churches dont do that, heck they barely got the hand fans and somma dem so beat up they dont push the air right
6 boys and 3 girls does equal 9 though
One of my neighbors got so tired of them coming to his door….he told me he answered the door bucket naked….folks aint been back since!
one of the 3-T’s has custody of Paris n’em now though

I was like gone head Aunt Janet when that rumor came out that she slapped herself a sassy niece. I aint never had to lay paws on my OWN niece but I CAN. And WILL. And she KNOW it. My kids scared as HAIL of my older sister.
I wouldn’t want to go door to door either. People are crazy. Just saying.

Growing up I never wanted to go to church.. Nothing against the lord just found it boring cuz I was a kid and kids don’t really like to sit…I NEVER had a choice I went to church on Sunday and I went to catholic school so I had church throughout the week too… 4 sacraments later, I finally mustered the courage to tell my momma I aint going to church no more but, by then I actually liked church

In an exciting move in Washington, Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA) and Congressman Peter DeFazio (D-OR) together have sponsored new federal legislation that requires the labeling of all genetically engineered food in the U.S. The Genetically Engineered Food Right-to-Know Act is the first national labeling bill to be introduced in Congress since 2010. U.S. citizens have demonstrated overwhelming support to label GMO foods in this country. Jeffrey Smith, founder of the Institute for Responsible Technology, has argued that GMO labeling could bring an end to the dangerous growth of GMOs. Genetically modified foods have consistently been shown to be dangerous to health in studies conducted by independently funded researchers. It is time for the U.S. to join other industrialized nations in their mandatory labeling policies.

In this day and age- 2013, it is not SAFE going door-to-door. I don’t care what your religious affiliations are. Seriously.
I don’t know anything about Jehovahs Witness other than the fact they seem like a cult more so & I could never understand why they all seem to want to sell that Watchtower, which gets trashed upon their departure.
Looking at the lifestyles of them JacksUn’s – it seems they really never followed the principles of the Kingdom either.
Don’t Jehovah’s believe only a certain number of people are going to heaven and those people are predetermined? What the hell you still going door to door to convert people when y’all already know who’s going to heaven? Waste of time to me

>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Hi All,
Usually I stay quiet when it comes to the my religion. But, reading some of these ignorant comments left behind just got me thinking. The majority of people whining are just talking about Jehovah Witnesses knocking on doors. Let me clear some things up:
Number of Jehovah’s Witnesses around the world 7,538,994, 239 lands that we preach and 595 languages in which we publish Bibles and Bible-based literature. 19,000,000 people who attend our meetings or conventions and 20,000,000,000 pieces of Bible-based literature published by Jehovah’s Witnesses over the past ten years. What other religion does that? Donations are voluntary and we aren’t selling anything. We have our own publishing house for our bibles and literature, don’t need to go out and hire anyone.
As for MJ going door to door as an adult, I’m pretty sure he wasn’t while celebrating birthdays, etc. Paris, has a choice no one in our organization is made to do anything we are born with free will.
Why do people tend to attack a religion who main goal is to help individuals learn the truth about why humans are suffering and what will put an end to everything.
On a personal note, I’m 34 years old, been with the organization since birth, left the organization because I felt I could do things my way. But, came back because I knew this was the place to be.
And to respond to:
Chupilives says:

Answer: The Bible states that only a limited number of faithful Christians—namely, 144,000 of them—are raised as spirit creatures to live in heaven. Why are they given this wonderful reward? Because they make up the group that John saw in a vision who “came to life and ruled as kings with the Christ for a thousand years.(Revelation 14:1, 3; 20:4-6)
By providing the ransom sacrifice of Jesus Christ, God began gathering the 144,000 almost 2,000 years ago, and indications are that this group is now complete. (Acts 2:1-4; Galatians 4:4-7) However, Jesus’ sacrifice was not for the sins of the 144,000 only, “but also for the whole world’s.” (1 John 2:2) Hence, all who exercise faith in Jesus have the prospect of eternal life. (John 3:16) Those asleep in the grave but who are in God’s memory will be resurrected, not to heaven, but to life on a cleansed earth. (Ecclesiastes 9:5; John 11:11-13, 25; Acts 24:15)
@ comment #53: Jehovah’s Witnesses don’t have windows in (most of) their Kingdom Halls because everything (Magazines, booklets, bibles, heating, air conditioning, building new Kingdom Halls) is financed by voluntary donations. There is absolutely no tithing or passing of a collection plate. That being said, it’s immensely cheaper to build without windows to save on heating and air conditioning costs. Also, we don’t collect money for the Awake/Watchtower magazine. If an individual wants to give a voluntary donation, we will accept that. Back to lurking…..
Burgess love:
My question was not meant to offend it was an honest question. I’ve obviously sat and listened at some point to even know this information and it makes no sense to me. Your response didn’t help clear anything up. I don’t understand how people quote different books of the bible written by different people in different time periods that totally contradict each other to prove their point. The bible says an eye for an eye as well as turn the other cheek…contradictory statements and that is why it makes no sense to me. Asking a question does not make one ignorant…not seeking answers is what makes people ignorant.
Correct, you are entitled to your opinion, i didn’t say that you weren’t.
Just like you are making your statements about the religion, I am stating facts about my religion (clearing misconceptions). I don’t speak upon other religions only because I don’t know what they entail, and that is out of respect.
The Bible is inspired by God, all parts of the Bible. Not just the scriptures you feel like reading.
“Draw close to God, and he will draw close to you.”—JAMES 4:8.The Bible shows that it is possible to have a relationship with God. Effort is required though. You have to seek to take in some of the Bible’s deeper teachings.Most are intimidated, I was one at one point.
@Chupilives – Hope this helps: Our purpose isn’t to make converts – it’s to inform you of things in the bible you may not even have known existed. With that being said, God put Adam and Eve on the earth. This is mankind’s home (Psalms 115:16). Although there are a predetermined number of individuals that are going to heaven, the majority of mankind can hope to live here on the earth in a paradise, again as he did for Adam and Eve. That is the hope of Jehovah’s Witnesses (2 Peter 3:13) and that’s the message we’re trying to convey. This system of things under Satan’s control (1 John 5:19) has just about run its course and we try (by going door to door) to inform as many people as possible.
@burgesslove and ttoles
Thanks for that. Sounds like you guys have really read and have a good understanding of bible scriptures. Makes me want to go read my bible so more. With all the things going on right now, all the craziness, everything getting worse and worse and even worse, you can tell something is about to happen. So I listen to people with a open heart when they talk about God. I read my bible a few times over the course of a few years, and I know the story of Noah very well. I do not want to get caught “sleeping” like they were. Thanks
@mimi08 – You’re very welcome! Next time some Witnesses come to your door (and we all know they will…. LOL!) talk with them. You’re right… things are getting worse and worse but it’s a time to lift our heads up. You know if WE’RE sick of it, God is too!
Religion shouldn’t need to be pushed. It should naturally appeal to people, like eating and sleeping,

I am 24 and became a jehovahs witnesses on my own in high school after I was in gangs and did my own thing. No one in my family is a Jehovah witness but i am one willingly on my own. I love going door to door Jesus did it..and no one is ever forced to be a Jehovahs witnesses its ur own personal choice . We treat all equally and imitate Jesus if some one listens or not.people tend to not tell there kids the truth about the world we live in but I am so glad someone knocked on my door I would probably be dead the route I was going in life.I have a big tattoo with my name on my neck and have never been criticized for my past.before I was a witness I was criticized people said I wouldn’t amount to nothing.I would never get a tattoo agian but i can relate to others. And encourage all to listen if some one knocks on ur door. This world is messed up and Jehovahs witnesses just stop by to share encouragement because of the times were living in not to convert?.
You are an amazing person.
Good for you, Kanisha
The article in Radar Online is wrong anyway: distribution of the Watchtower and all other literature is done without charge. Only if the householder raises the question do we mention how donations might be made. In Paris’s grandmother’s day it was different, but not for about 20 years now.
But she’s still a christain. What’s the big deal?
