Why do people make up things that aren't really in the Bible?

    Rhetorical question, I guess.

    This is making the rounds:

    When you carry a Bible, the devil gets a headache.

    When you open it, he collapses.

    When he sees you reading it, he faints.

    When he sees you living it, he flees.

    And just when your [sic] about to re-post this, he will try & discourage u

    My response: {{Cite quote}} [this quote needs a citation] : Where the hell is this in the real Bible?

    Just like the angels being out in field service protecting the jahs.

    Satan and his followers do not and can not understand

    spiritual matters. He can open that Bible and not understand

    one word in it. So now Satan can,t read. That,s peculiar, I,am

    not a Christian but I certainly know the Bible, so much for

    the elders telling me I will be in spiritual darkness after leaving

    the borg.

    Rebel, was there something accompanying that saying it was in the Bible? What you quote strikes me as just as saying without attribution, which people do all the time about all kinds of things.

    Doesn't reduce the BS factor, but that's how I see it.

    Perhaps the biggest lies, is that Jesus or Jehovah is good and the bible is the GOOD BOOK.
