Other things on the list of the religious extremists who broke records: They complained about African Americans in Rock and Roll. They complained about blacks having hit records. They tried to censor their music. They tried to keep their white children from listening to music made by black artists. They complained about Little Richard. Then they took his music, changed what he wrote and gave it to that very white Christian named Pat Boone to sing. Did you do that too?

300 books! Is there one hell of a demon story behind that? I remember my mom burning things in an old barrel we used to burn trash in because of suspected demonic activity. I wish she would have just talked to a therapist or something. Her belief system reinforced some pretty disturbing behavior. JW lore is that if you call out "Jehovah" really loud the demons will retreat. Sometimes we would hear that screamed from the downstairs by my mom. My brother and I would look at each other and laugh.

One more you might be an evangelical

If you know the difference between rape and fornication is how loud you scream.....

Burning books is what fearful, superstitious, primitive people do to please their gods now that sacrificing sheep, goats etc. is out of style.

Except that I'm not fearful, superstitious, or primitive. I just obey. But I have been to a sheep feast over an open pit before. Yum. Peace

  • If upon hearing of a neighborhood tragedy you start planning a covered dish, you might be an evangelical.
  • If after each meeting your boss always seems to call on you to help stack chairs, you might be an evangelical.
  • If you return a hearty “Good Morning!†when someone hands you a flyer on the street, you might be an evangelical.
  • If while singing you wave your hand in the air like you just don’t care, you might be an evangelical.
  • If you catch yourself saying Amen after overhearing someone exclaim, “What in Jesus Name …â€!

You're a book-burner. A killer of thoughts.

A burner of words.

An anti-Creator.
