  Witness 007

  Yearbook 67 P.105 "...a large crowd was following a man who had a talking serpent. The serpent gave greetings and and spoke in foreign tongues....a brother was passing by and attracted by the commotion, he went to the house ...as soon as he entered the room the serpent stopped talking. The man cried out: "A magican has entered the room...The brother asked the man: "Is that a serpent or a demon that has spoken to you?....I know that since God has created animals not one serpent has spoken, with the exception of the one in the begining in the Garden of Eden...seeing that the serpent remained silent the man left the building...Later...he was anxious to get some literature...."

  My question....HOW THE HELL did this silly experience make it into the Yearbook?

  Creation Scientists To Search for Talking Snake Bones in Africa

  At what point in history did snakes lose their vocal cords and legs? Creation Scientists turn to the Bible and the continent of Africa for an answer.

  Jehovahs Witnesses are a cooky, cooky religion. People are just as bizarre as 'holy rollers'. A typical dub accepts the bizarre as normal when they see bizarre every day.

  Demon stories and Jehovahs Witnesses are theyre favorite. Dubs LOVE the demons bothering them... Have you heard them talk? It's borderline psychotic.

  The only demon in this world lives in the human heart.

  When we were in a foreign assignment the branch was told to come up with stories for the 96-97 yearbook and a local 20 yr old uncritically wrote as he was told them by local JWs. They had no talking snakes but they greatly exagerated the facts (including man eating "tigers" in S.America) and skillfully ommitted the negative.

  What that so called "brother" did was to ruin a theatrical performance.

  Notice also that this "experience" mentions no names at all. No one can check the story.

  Probably the same way so many others do...hearsay on the part of influential elders at Bethel.
