Crazy JW urban legend

by Simon in

a sure guarantee that this was bogus (really, any reasoning is required at all?

) was that it did the rounds applied to john denver, annie lennox and others.. basically, they relied on satan (oh yes) for their musical ability (i knew it) and any jws in the audience would be asked to leave because ... (drum roll) ... they blocked the signal to satan so couldn't perform with them present!.

anyone else remember that gem?.

I remember the Denver rumour too. But I heard that he hated the witnesses so much that at one of his performances, he asked any jehovah's witness in the audience to leave.

Growing up in a strict jw home, there wasn't much I could listen to--everything seemed to be coming from the devil. I remember a brother from the stage who said Paul Anka's "put your head on my shoulder" should never be sung or hummed because it encouraged immorality and if you were single it would encourage fornication.

Hi Rules: I am doing well thanks. Still plugging along and going to meetings with my hubby for the sake of my parents .

I am glad you started this thread- it made me sit back and and chuckle as I "watch the view" at the hall.

I also wonder what's in those suitcases. This particular elder is a promoter of electronics--so everything he needs for the "cult reunions" is in the confines of his apple device. But I guess if one is a high school dropout, having a large briefcase gives one a sense of importance. Its like having those letters in front of your name.
