The whole judicial process is ridiculous! The Bible does not give Christians this formula (that JWs have) to try a case. The accused has NO RIGHTS!

That any critical analysis of their religion is an attack from Satan and his demons.

Yeah, the demonized clothing thing is right up there.
How about this: Because two people were beheaded thousands of years apart at birthday celebrations, Jehovah was trying to tell us that b'days are bad! Hey, he could have said that without so much drama, eh?? I was thinking that maybe he was really saying b'days are okay, just don't lop someone's head off during the party!!

Here's a good one for ya. .. . .how about the one in the 70's (believe it came out in 74 or 75) that oral sex was a disfellowshipping offense. There were tons of people who "confessed" to still doing the "dirty deed" and were disfellowshipped. Marriages broke up - tons of divorces where one spouse was a JW and the other wasn't. . .it was a mess. I believe this was all in Crisis of Conscience. Then a few years later (I was long since gone) they came out and said it was a "matter of conscience - that what two people did in the bedroom was their own business. GEEZ - who the hell sat around and thought up that one???????????? LOLOL

Here are a few to add to the list: You cannot celebrate Christmas because it's worshiping the sun. Birthdays are bad because two people murdered innocent people while celebrating theirs--and supposedly those are the only two birthdays in the Bible (compare Luke 2:10-14). That people are happiest just above the poverty level. Demons are ready to attack anyone and at any time. That you would be protected from all disease by not committing fornication or taking a blood transfusion (while leaving out the tuberculosis you can get at the door and the sicknesses from not enough sleep). Armageddon is so close--that they are attempting to set a date. The two-witness rule on pedophiles. Most people, even active members, will die at Armageddon.
