    "the television is the Devil's eyeball"......Reborn, the first time I heard that was when a CO by the name of Shepherd kept repeating. When I heard it I said to myself,"What a dumbass this guy is!".

    "If any overzealous doctor condemns your tonsils go and commit suicide with a case-knife. It's cheaper and less painful." (Golden Age, April 7, 1926, p. 438)

    "Peter Gregerson once said on a television program in Vancouver, B.C. that being raised a Jehovah's Witness was like being raised in an insane asylum with retarded parents." (Jim Penton - May 14, 1996)

    like being raised in an insane asylum with retarded parents.."

    OMG, is this my life or what? The way they treat women is what gets me. I was not good because I did not have a head. My sister married a total stranger 12 years older than herself, but that was okay, he was a brother. She honestly thought she could not live by herself, she had to get married or live with her parents. She has the strangest marriage now, when ever they have a fight, his sister or my mother runs and tells the elders on them. Is it no wonder she sometimes wants to kill herself?

    That 'the gospel' is the good news that Jesus returned in 1914 and nobody knows it but JWs.

    That's ridiculous!!

    That the leader of the JWs (Rutherford) described a woman as a 'stack of bones and a hank of hair'.

    That's ridiculous!!
