You know, the Bible is enough of a weapon on its own ;). Comedian, Anthony Jesselnik proved this with an amazing story about his uncle. He said, this man has always carried a copy of the Bible specifically in his breast pocket for as long his he could remember. And Anthony would always tease the uncle for it. One day, his uncle got caught in the crossfire of an armed robbery when a bullet struck the God-fearing man in the chest. "And MIRACULOUSLY, my uncle... had something to read while he bled to death."

"When persons are in great danger from a source that they do not suspect or are being misled by those they consider their friends is it an unkindness to warn them? They may prefer not to believe the warning. They may even resent it. But does that free one from the moral responsibility to give that warning?"
-Watchtower, January 15, 1974
While I do understand the need to forgo "revenge" in order to attain inner peace, I do have strong admiration, appreciation and a sense of indebtedness to the activists who wore their chains of former bondage openly and clanged them loudly enough for me to wake up.

@Slidin Fast, I was hot on your tail. At age ten, like all other children, you're operating under the quaint assumption that mommy and daddy will always love you, no matter what, and that you'll be a part of their family forever.
How dead wrong we were.

A seven year old. At the time, it was so "heart warming". Now that I'm awake, my blood runs cold at the implications of a minor being locked into this sickening, life-long contract.

Saying you don't believe the GB is God's
coloncanal is the ultimate, cardinal sin. No matter how much you protest that you love Jehovah, believe in the Ransom and cherish the scriptures... the second you speak against these Guyanese leaders, you're an "agent of Satan". -

Natures way of supporting the GB's claims that their literature flies off the shelves.

Folly of claiming “only we have the truth”
by venus inone’s mindset and its conditioning pursue what one believes to be the “truth” which it says ‘i can perceive with my senses.
this makes possible for the life to be perceived in many different ways.
imagine all were born blind.

@zeb While at first it does seem like a giant goof for Jackson to have said that, I feel like there may be something a little bit clever about his wording since he never actually answered the question... He just said the idea was presumptuous. Did anyone else pick up on that? Or am I giving this Muppet too much credit.
