All the Ministry School nonsense about being a good speaker and so on as if it justifies and gives credibility to the lies and deceptive nature of the message.

long prayers, long songs, long answers, long talks and clapping all the clapping it woke me up.

There was one sister in the congregation that i used to attend, that always answered then mentioned something else to follow later in the study. like who gave a crap. she always did that and i found it to be very annoying.

in the hall i was in an elder once gave the cringe worthy talk about puberty. and then proceeded to name all the girls ( not the boys just the girls) in the hall who would or were shortly to start this stage of life.

Now that dosn't sound to bad when your an adult but when your 12 and just starting to grow up and an elder on the platform annouces to a cong of 80+ that YOU are about to start growing tits and getting periods .... let me tell you, you just want the ground to open up and swallow you whole!
