    Considering that is the JWs who make it a social practice to shun even family members, I have to think that probably this is the kind of story that would arises from that mindset.

    This dub I know told me that a CO gave a talk at a convention; he says that a man would make deals with Satan to get him whatever: money, girls, etc.

    One day he sees a girl and Satan says he can't get her for him. He asks why not, and Satan says "Because she serves a God that's more powerful than I am."

    He goes over and finds out she is a dub. He starts studying, blah blah blah, they get married.

    CO says, "How do I know this? I was that man."

    What a bunch of bs.

    Yeah great story, btw this guy needs to either lay off the LSD or he needs to start taking his prozac. he talks to satan......LMAO, what a freaking moron!

    The kicker in the story was that the last time this CO heard they where still married but he wasn't talking. How long had it been? Supposedly over 30 years

    All I can say is this -- well, let Rod Serling say it:

    You unlock this door with the key of imagination. Beyond it is another dimension. A dimension of sound. A dimension of sight. A dimension of mind. You're moving into a land of both shadow and substance, of things and ideas. You've just crossed over into...The NEW LIGHT ZONE.

    When the non-JW is not speaking to the JW, it is "persecution."

    When it's the JW not speaking to whomever it may be, it is "love."

    The latter is, of course, more likely to occur.

    He's still talking with satan 40 years later.

    After talking online with other ex-JWs from all over the place on this forum, I really began to understand how the organization is a large echo-chamber for urban legends, myths, and pseudo-experiences. I could relate several. And now with email, such legends only circulate more rapidly and extensively than before.

    I have often thought about how fun it might be to fabricate fake experiences and get a few active Witnesses to send them out to JW email address lists to see how rapidly they circulate. Someone should circulate one that says that Ted Jaracz cast a demon out of someone, or lifted a heavy car off of the foot of a old pioneer sister.

    Do any of you remember the "Dear Barbara" story? I remember they read it at an assembly one year . . .

    Supposedly some girl that a witness (Barbara) knew in high school wrote her a letter some years after HS. In the letter she apologizes to the witness for always teasing or picking on her for being wholesome. I forget the exact details now.

    But the non-witness (she was promiscuous in HS) as it turned out contracted HIV/AIDS and she wrote this letter to tell the girl how much she admired her and wished that she could have been more like her. Something like that.

    I just remember it being a very emotional experience for many J-dubs at that assembly. I wonder if that was a fake as well.

    This gives Satan a bad name...

    How stupid does he think Satan is?

    In a lot of these stories I've heard, the demons are more helpfull in recruiting witnoids than the angels and publishers combined!

    Caller: "Why can't I get wireless service out here?"

    AT&T: "Because we suck. Who do you think we are? Verizon?"

    *Click*

    AT&T: "Hello? Helloooo? Oh darn, not again."


    Buyer: "Why does this car get lower gas milliage than that one across the street?"

    Seller: "Because they're a better car dealer!"

    *VROOM*

    Seller: "Oops, I gotta stop doing that!"


    Guy: "Hey Satan! Why can't you possess that chick for me?"

    Satan: "Because she serves a more powerfull god than I am."

    *sure I'll take a free home Bible study.*

    Satan: "Godammitohell!!! What did I do wrong?!"
