    "True Christians shouldn't watch figure skating because some of the skaters are gay."

    I watched figure skating because the girls wore those short, tight little outfits. For a JW youth, that was almost as good as porn.

    my mom said a few weeks ago, "if the world was full of jehovah's witnesses there'd be no crime."

    Was told one time that we shouldn't go to garage sales.....that we might buy something that is demonized and bring demons home with us!!!

    My mother-in-law just told me this morning that JW children in schools have to put up with their unruly classmates. That is why they bring home bad behavior. That JW children don't act rebellious on their own.

    Hmm, as usual a complete lack of response from the JW apologists and semi JW apologists.

    Anyways,

    An elder once said to my mum after finding out I'd left home and got my own place.

    "Well that'll be the end of him then."

    Erm, gee, thanks for the support.

    I wasn't even doubting the religion at that point but his comment made me think.

    5) You can always tell people who masturbate because of their lack of seriousness, always quick with a joke. (That was in a public talk)
    My dad and mom - "Son masturbation will lead to homosexuality"

    Oh, I see! That's why they use the word gay! ROFLOL!

    HI. We're new. My husband and I are just dying laughing at some of this stuff!!! We were told all the same things. We both grew up in "the Lie." We've just left. Where do I begin???? There are too many to list.

    The one that stands out in my mind as being the all time stupidest was told to a study that was about to be baptized by the pioneer who studied with him. He had had a "problem" with drugs, etc.(the whole sex, drugs rock-n-roll scene) and she told him that he had opened himself to the demons so, when he was baptized, he should change his name, apply for a new social-security number and move to a new city so that the demons wouldn't find him!!!!!! You think that's stupid?? The dork-wad actually did it!!!!!!

    Keep em' coming!! This is better than cable !!!

    Welcome to the board, 2escaped lifers!!!

    It is amazing that the whole world wide borganization of JW's had so many similar experinces!! Great fun to make fun of it.

    When you get comfortable, please let us know more about you two. I find it is interesting to hear people's stories.

    OMG! I've heard most of the ridiculous things posted here but yours was a winner for all time stupid things!

    That is unfreakin' believable!! To think we were involved in a wacko cult that could spew out stuff like this and survive more or less intact.
