Even the Jehovah’s Witnesses Don’t Want to be Mormon
Some things you just can’t make up…
The Jehovah’s Witnesses came to my door this morning and when my wife saw them through the screen door she started to head them off with a simple “we’re not interested, thank you,” but before she could get the whole sentence out the lady interrupted my wife to say, “we’re Jehovah’s Witnesses. We have something we’d like to share with you.”
Not to be deterred my wife added, “I know who you are, we’re not interested.”
Without missing a beat the lady outside said, “oh, I didn’t want you to think we’re Mormons.” And then she went on her way.
My wife was quick to respond that they’re all the same to us, before she and I realized what she had said. How appalling it is that one religion would try to justify their own organization by degrading another? My readers already know that I’m unhappy that the Mormons are supporting Proposition 8 but I’m even more appalled that a Jehovah’s Witness, generally a non-voter, would take advantage of someon while they’re getting bashed in the news. Aren’t religious folks supposed to stand up for each other?
