Off topic alert.....Here's my personal favorite:
After putting my Mum into a logical corner (can't remember what it was) she said....
"I feel like I'm in a wrestling here"
For those of us that know and love loaded language this was a great example.
English Revised Version - Eph. 6:12
For our wrestling is not against flesh and blood, but against the principalities, against the powers, against the world-rulers of this darkness, against the spiritual hosts of wickedness in the heavenly places.
She was basically using a thought-stopping technique that was telling her there was no need to engage me further as I was evidently speaking for and on behalf of Beelzebub.
I found it insulting and hurtful as I knew exactly what she meant.
How would you respond to the elders?

I've actually been meaning to put something like this together on my web site as well. I'd love to hear a list of the comments everyone has heard during these circumstances even if you don't have a response to go with them. Maybe the rest of us will see it and come up with one for you.

I compiled another list a while back and I am keeping it here.

Feel free to incorporate it in to your site.
