This actually touches on 2 treads. Abuse of JW children and stupid comments.
Angry mom gets up in the middle of the Watchtower study to spank "bad" son.
The little boy sreams: Please Jehovah Help Me!
The Watchtower conductor says: Even a small child realizes that Jehovah is his only salvation.
Pretty sick, huh!
anything to do with dates----1914, 1918, 1919, 1975,etc.
We are going to live forever
Chloe---Yikes. The birthday cake is said to be from Greek times---has something to do with Artemis, the goddess of the moon.
I think some of the explanations for the reasons that other holidays and special occasions are not celebrated are pretty freakin' ridiculous. Why wedding anniversaries and not b-days?

A couple of time the kid would get it wrong, and parrot the wrong stock answer:
Bro. WT conductor: "... and who is the king ruler of this present system of things?"
Young Brother Parrot: "JEHOVAH??????????"
Bro. WT conductor: "...uh, lets try that again, this present, wicked system of things, filled with crime, violence, pollution...."
Young Brother Parrot: (looks at parents) ??????????
(Parrot's parents whisper somthing to Young Brother Parrot)
Young Brother Parrot: JESUS???????????
(Parrot's parents are now quite agitated, and starting to sweat, feeling the embarrassment of the entire hall; getting those "your 3 year old child doesn't even know...." stares; they say to child loud enough for everyone to hear "Satan the Devil")
Young Brother Parrot: SATAVEL!!!!!
Bro. WT conductor: "Yes, that's right, Satan the Devil"!
~Quotes of the "hate to see children brainwashed so young" class
One pioneer in his 80's called on by the conductor remarked that the times are changing because the Jews took over a certain town and the place used to be known for the "nigger pool".
"Everything in the Christian Greek scriptures technically relates exclusively to the anointed----but that doesn't mean it doesn't apply to us."
