    I'm with you SafeAtHome: "Be careful what records you buy at Record Stores because they may have demons attatched to them, oh & don't play them backwards either". Complete B$!!

    Millie, perhaps that was their old understanding? Cos their current understanding is "It is not for us to judge who is saved & who is not"

    That the Great Pyramid of Giza is a stone witness to the Creator.

    Oh I don't know let me think...

    How about that a set of rotating 7-9 body of men in their 60's plus have the exclusive rights to interpretation of scripture which you must adhere to for the sake of unity and your own salvation, while also reserving the right to be completely wrong about any particular interpretation at any time under the guise of being humbly corrected by the holy spirit.....all the while threatening shunning for those percieved as being against the congregation.

    Just off the top of my head.
