Most annoying thing I ever heard done in prayer. Was when the "brother" actually quoted scriptures in the prayer. I was always thinking, "your quoting scriptures to Jehovah, didn't he write this book?" Seems like a very odd thing to do, and my stomach was normally yelling, "lunchtime brother, AMEN this thing already and let me hit the Taco Bell."

Witnesses Just Tried to Have Me Arrested!!!!
by Reborn2002 inwell, i just got home and im piping madd.. im laughing about it as well though because i outsmarted them at their own game and got a rant off my chest.. heres what happened.
an acquaintance i used to go to the hall with.. who is also 3 years younger than me asked me for money about 6 months ago.. at the time, i loaned him $50 to get the tires on his car fixed.
in that time period, not only did he move out of his parents house to an undisclosed location because he decided to stop going to the kh.. but i also da myself in that time frame.. due to the fact he moved out, i havent been able to reach him.. i tried calling his parents home to discover his current location or at least to tell them if he contacts them, to be sure to have him reach me because he owes me money.. no response.

So asking them where their son is, was going to stumble them from the religion? What a firm foundation they have in their beliefs. People just use that excuse as a crutch in life to avoid problems. I would bet their son's exit had to do with the religion and they are just confused that Jehovah has not smited you or him yet, in a glorious flame of anger.

Jehovah's Witness : Small Christian organization founded in the late 1800's by Charles Russell. Their early beliefs, and current beliefs differ greatly. Yet they still claim to be part of the same foundation. Their central doctrine is based on a strict understanding and literal following of Bible scripture. Although many of their points are easily proven wrong, and are oppressive to their people. Fear of being disfellowshiped or expelled from the congregation and their personal families keeps the greater number quite. Jehovah's Witnesses are the "Chicken Little" of religions, as they are constantly yelling, "the sky is falling" with repeated references to the end of the world that never come to pass. They are based out of Brooklyn, NY and headed up by the Governing Body. The Governing Body is a group of older men who vote on what beliefs should be accepted and what beliefs should not, and then pass the tally along to their organization as the divine guidance of their God Jehovah.

Satan is the poor guy in the Bible myth that gets everything blamed on him, even though he was just trying to get man out from the dictatorship rule of a God who wanted man to play "name the animals" all day and not do some heavy thinking. Frankly, had he been human and done the same in a government as oppressive as the Garden of Eden today. There would be a holiday named after him and we would all get the day off to go fishing.

I am a slight fan, I just wrote this out without looking it up. Guess it might have to do with listening to the wall about a million times, plus one.
So ya
Thought ya
Might like to
Go to the show.
To feel that warm thrill of confusion,
That space cadet glow.
I've got some bad news for you sunshine,
Pink isn't well, he stayed back at the hotel
And they sent us along as a surrogate band
We're gonna find out where you folks really stand.
Are there any queers in the theater tonight?
Get them up against the wall!
There's one in the spotlight, he don't look right to me,
Get him up against the wall!
That one looks Jewish!
And that one's a coon!
Who let all of this riff-raff into the room?
There's one smoking a joint,
And another with spots!
If I had my way,
I'd have all of you shot! -

Here is something to think about. If all things exist because God created them. Answer this, "who created evil?" If you say Satan, then you are saying that Satan is as powerful as God, in that he has the power to create. Thus equal to, and perhaps the same person as God.
