    I remember an ex-elders wife would have little bible studies at her house for the children and she would teach them that there were computers around before the dinosours. CRAZY!

    Now THAT is one for the books. LMAO

    One elder thought I should sell the Super Bowl tickets (50 yard line) I had won and donate the money to the Kingdom Hall.

    One elder thought that global warming meant the new system was closer than ever. He figured that globally we would be blessed with tropical weather, and global warming was just God's way of saying.."just a little while longer."

    I don't think he factored in that pesky increase in skin cancer.

    One elder thought that Barney Clark (one of the first artificial heart recipients) would end up an inhuman zombie because he didn't have a real heart, where all emotions come from.

    Another elder told us not to watch All In The Family because they were always making racist remarks on that program. (Duh! The whole point of the program was to show how ignorant those remarks are.)

    I remember an Elder learning Hebrew, as that would be the language we'd all be speaking

    Actually that is an official teaching of the WT - forget the book but but it stated that we use Hebrew embellished with the good bits of other languages
