Thanks for the info HappyDad. I didn't realize that the Johnny Carson portion of this rumour was so well known. Interesting.......

Was John Denver the Anti-Christ?
by sixsixsixtynine inwhen i was a kid in the seattle area in the late '70's, i heard this rumor told many times: before all his concerts, john denver would ask if there were any jehovah's witnesses present, and then ask them all to leave(of course whoever was telling the story knew of someone who had experienced this first hand).
also, johnny carson confronted him about it on the tonight show once(carson often figured into the jw/celebrity rumours i heard as a kid), and when denver admitted that it was true, johnny asked him to leave.
apparently, several witnesses worked on his show and this greatly offended him.

"....a demon's hand coming out of a television to turn "Bewitched" back on...."
Awesome! That's without a doubt, the best Dubs 'n' Demons story I've ever heard.

Even Witnesses in Australia told this story? Amazing.
It never seemed very believable to me back then, and I certainly don't believe it now. But, how did it start? Why was it so widespread? Why John Denver?!?!
Very strange, even for JW's.
Hi Rachel, thanks for the pre-emptive birthday wish!(someone left the cake out in the rain)

"I just know that many JWs were happy when he suddenly died, believing Jehovah smote him!" Are you serious!? I guess flying in the face of God with his "experimental" aircraft was the last straw.

So it was a widespread rumor. Any ideas why it started(other than Denver's popularity at the time, and the Witnesses persecution complex)?

They pioneered the hyper-fast construction of bland, institutional worship facilities.

When I was a kid in the Seattle area in the late '70's, I heard this rumor told many times: Before all his concerts, John Denver would ask if there were any Jehovah's Witnesses present, and then ask them all to leave(of course whoever was telling the story knew of someone who had experienced this first hand). Also, Johnny Carson confronted him about it on The Tonight Show once(Carson often figured into the JW/Celebrity rumours I heard as a kid), and when Denver admitted that it was true, Johnny asked him to leave. Apparently, several Witnesses worked on his show and this greatly offended him. As they were fine, upstanding people. Did anyone else ever hear this ridiculous story, or did it just circulate in my area?
