This claim is just as offensive to the mentally ill as the claim that the offspring of Ham were cursed "and that's where blacks come from." I cannot believe, in 2011, this kind of uneducated, close-minded rhetoric would be used. It's inflammatory, it's disparaging and it's disgusting. Taking one innocent group and labeling them with another innocent group to make a CLAIM that one of them is BAD.

Apostates = Mentally ill

Mentally ill = BAD

Therefore, Apostates = BAD

I think the question should be, Who has the mental disease?
The bullying passive-aggressive organisation that has a socipathic attitude that results in stockholm syndrome and passive dissidence by it's members?

If we are mentally-diseased, well that's only because of the abuse we suffered at their hands, and we left to escape such mental illness !!!!

Fair point by Bella..... mental illness are not infectious; except rare cases such as BSE, etc., of which you have to eat the infected, and that paragraph made no reference to cannibalism !!!!!!!!!!!

Spectre

Good catch, Punk!

Cyruse - I can't see anything, don't know if it's my browser but it looks like 'the blank of England'

Bella - I agree totally. They're as twisted as the 'gordium knot'

Happy - Have a beer on me!

erbie - Yes, the 'ad hominem' is proof of their fear that they're going down. Pride before a fall.

Mummatron - You know me so well!

Sizemik - Rock on my man. ROCK ON!! Please keep us posted!

Discreteslave - Thanks sweetie. I'm sick of sitting on my botty, it's time to act. Power to the sheeple!!

Outlaw - Thanks my good man. See full size image

Stillthinking - I Thankee! I look forward to further developements too.

Dario - I agree and thanks for illustrating it by way of their use of logical fallicy. XLNT.

ekruks - You make a valid point. At least if I'm mentally diseased nothing I do is my fault.

Spectre- Thanks. One does ones best!

Let's see if anything comes back!

Sorry, I couldn't resist this..............................................

Blondie - Valid point you make. Again WBT$ put their own selfserving spin on things. Ooooh Denis, doo bee dooo!

Pams Girl - Hey, Paula....I'm singing all the hits now!! If I'm honest they'll probably look at the emails and say: 'Jehovah's Witnesses......nyah! Harmless cranks. My favourite aunt is one. Nutty as a fruitcake but harmless!'
