Random Quote

Though there are a number of rather savage apocalyptic scenarios current among American Fundamentalists, I am aware of none quite so inhumane as the Jehovah's Witnesses' accounts of the End of our Time. There is something peculiarly childish in these Watchtower yearnings: the remind me of why very small children cannot be left alone with wounded and suffering household pets.

[Harold Bloom, The American Religion, pg. 169-170]
