    Ummmmmmmm it really does make you worry for the sanity of these people.

    The Watchtower January 15, 2000 You Can Know The Future! (Divination?)

    P18 Para 17, the question is: How did certain brothers in El Salvodor use ingenuity to preach to a man who at first did not want to hear the Kingdom message?

    17 In El Salvodor, one man tied his vicious dog in front of the door whenever he saw Jehovah's Witnesses nearby. The man would wait for the Witnesses to move on, and then he would bring the dog back into the house. The brothers were never able to speak to the man. So one day they decided to try a different approach. Knowing that the man could hear what they were saying, they decided to preach to the dog. They came to the house, greeted the dog, (and get this), and said how glad they were for the opportunity to speak to it. They talked about the time when there would be a paradise on earth, when no one would be angry-yes, when even the animals would be peaceable. Then they said a polite good-bye to the dog, (oh my giddy aunt), and started down the path. Much to their surprise, the man came out of his house and apologised for never having given the Witnesses the opportunity to speak to him. He accepted the magazines, and a Bible study was started. This man is now our brother-one of the "desirable things"!

    Brackets my own.

    So the WT Society is so giddy that malcontents and weirdos like this vicious-dog owner join their ranks?? This is what they've been reduced to.

    Their message doesn't have the same appeal to well-adjusted people out there.

    Sometimes I wonder where the come up with some of these stories. I am sure some of them are a bunch BS or exaggerations.

    I already heard that story in connection with witnessing in Mexico, as well as from the platform at a district assembly in the U.S., well before 2000. Aren't JW's mind-bogglingly inventive?

    Original footnote edited out by writing committee:

    "Even more happily, the dog also became one of Jehovah's Witnesses. Sadly, after an identity crisis he turned apostate and now frequents discussion boards posting under the name Fredhall."

    Wow -
    I remember seeing that in the WT..
    what a joke!

    I wonder how many visits they had before they thought to bring the dog a treat??

    And did they count the visits as returns??

    HUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM?????

    Barking Mad Dog Is Converted!!

    What absolute twaddle, they must be making it up.

    What complete piffle will they dream up next?

    One moment the dog is vicious, the next it is placid and peaceable?

    Crazy, completely crazy bunch of loons.

    Peace and WhatKnot, WhatKnot indeed.
