Now they just have to outlaw extremist Putin and his cronies.

But banning the JoHos and their cult is actually a good thing.

Pity it's likely an act to give the Russian Orthodox church more influence than it is to save people from a mind numbing cult.

Damn, it would take some brass ones to shill for the JWs in Russia.

Jesus Fucking Christ . . . .
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

Uh, no it isn't...

A cult is a word for religion when it's used in the 2nd or 3rd person.
"You don't need facts when you got Jesus." -Pastor Deacon Fred, Landover Baptist Church

™: True Christian is a Trademark of the Landover Baptist Church. I have no affiliation with this fine group of True Christians ™ because I can't afford their tithing requirements but would like to be. Maybe someday the Lord will bless me with enough riches that I am able to.

JWism is ESPECIALLY false.
