A nice lady just came to our door and presented me with a lovely pamphlet entitled 'Electronic Games: Is There A Dark Side?'.
So, I would just like to say a big thankyou to the Jehovah's Witnesses for delivering free entertainment to my doorstep.
Apparently she will return in a week to discuss the pamphlet with me. I can hardly wait.

She'll have a lot of work to do on you, since you're a lost cause.

Jehovah's Witnesses - Just say NO!

Let's re-assemble the old cast of Grange Hill and they could do us a song and a video.

Aahh, the joys of door-to-door salvation salesmen... back when i was a stoodent i used to love the JW's and Mormons and extreme prostestant travelling tinkers of faith turning up on my doorstep, that "we'll be back in a week" was perfect for a bit of research up at the relgious studies departments' library and some prepatory note-taking.

Thing is the poor schmucks they send round really don't know much about thier own ecumenical standpoints let alone anyones elses. Sure, they're reasonably genned up on whatever scandalous shocker they've been sent out to warn the gentiles about and the basic tenants of thier sect, but ask them about anything deeper and they look confused, go away and then return with a 'senior' member of the church/cult/whatever.

The mormons foiled me once (and once only) when a pair of sisters turned up and one of them was a very attractive young american lass, Sister Bernadette if i remember correctly.. (and belive me, i do..) Really threw my politely pressing theological banter, that did.. :)

Must have been blackballed or something, as it's years since i've seen them around here. Perhaps Lancaster is too far gone..

Learn how to speak in tongues whilst playing Halo. If you have a severed goats head on the coffee table when they come back round, you get bonus points. Then again, if anyone was to pose the question 'Electronic Games: Is there a dark side?' to me, i'd say 'Yes, and bloody good fun it is, too....'

You cruel bastard - I'm sure she really believe that video games are the root to all evil! Personally I'd recommend challenging her to a game of Halo.

While you have them in captivity, be sure to question them closely on the precise contents of the Little Red Book.
