[Reply to a post about concerns over a talking cheerleader doll that says "whoopee"]
I would get rid of it immediately, OUT off the property. You can sense there is something wrong with it so destroy it!
Evil spirits can enter objects such as a doll and use it to terrorize a family. I recall dealing with a lady who vividly remembers a talking doll when she was a little girl one night jumping off the shelf and walking towards her while she was lying in bed. The doll was trying to communicate with her. These are evil spirits within these objects attempting to establish a stronghold within a family and a home with the purpose to torment.

Its just a doll. The manufacturers made it talk.
If an evil spirit actually possesses a doll and terrorises you and your family, thats way more of an interesting story than throwing a doll out on the misguided belief that such a thing can happen.
"The doll was trying to communicate with her. These are evil spirits within these objects attempting to establish a stronghold within a family and a home with the purpose to torment."
You're tech-savvy enough to use a computer connected to the Internet, so ask yourself this question:
Ever heard of soundchips? If you think they're evil spirits, you should get off that computer, sharpish! You wouldn't imagine the indescribable horrors contained therein (and that's just the mouse alone!).
These people are complete nutjobs. It should also be noted that this guy is a moderator on that forum, too. Here's another paranoid response from different user (also a moderator):
Jewels you were right in throwing away the doll. Feeling the presence of evil on a doll that says the word whoopi which is another word for sex is not good. My concerns are with the girl who owned this doll before whether she still be young or even grown up at this time she needs prayer.
Father God i come to you at this time and lift up both Jewels and this little girl. With Jewels we break all curses spoken and unspoken related to this doll and place them back onto the doll to be burried with it in a landfill never to be seen from again. With this girl we place her in your hands and pray that you minister to her through someone who can help. we pray right now father that you bring unto her the strength to seek help and the people you want to be there to be ready and willing to minister freedom unto her. In Jesus name we pray amen.
Thank you Jewels for bringing this here and God Bless
"I recall dealing with a lady who vividly remembers a talking doll when she was a little girl one night jumping off the shelf and walking towards her while she was lying in bed."
Oh for fucks sake, it fell off the sodding shelf in the night, it was not freaking possessed. The rest was her childish imagination going overtime because she was startled in the night and had probably been told to look out look out for monsters under the bed as a joke by her parents just before she went to bed.
Jeez...

Far too many horror movies. Curse you television! Damn you to seven hells Hollywood!
**bangs head on desk**
Dolls talk because of a chip in them, that's why they require a string or batteries. There is no demon.
These people must shit themselves over see 'n say.
Here is the orginal quote: I bought a doll at a garage sale. It looked innocent enough.... it was cheerleader with little pompoms and brown hair in pony tails. "We are number one, not number two and we are going to knock the 'whoppi" out of u,
I also dont understand why the word isent more discernable.
Epic. Any insight jewels...you are certifiable. If talking dolls bother you, why did you frickin' buy it in the first place?
There are certain words that bode ill for mankind, and you would be well advised to avoid people who use them. In fact do not read the following list unless you have an iron constitution or are totally confident in your strengths and abilities. WARNING. There now follows the list of words.
1). Jesus
There are many more, but I lack the courage to continue with this self-inflicted torture.
Why is shit like this only happening to the deranged fundies and never to me, a hardcore atheist?
Oh yeah, I almost forgot! It never happened because this douchebag is a liar!
But then again, nowadays if I'd like to play with dolls, it would have to be with a Real Doll!

Ohhhhhh.
Seriously is your reaction to things you don't understand always, "It's evil! EVIL I TELL YA!!"?
Jay Bartlett, please rescue yourself from fundiedom.
Nonsense. I had talking toys when I was a child, and I turned out just fine.
Now, let's all forget our troubles with a big bowl of strawberry ice-cream.
"Evil spirits can enter objects such as a doll..."
Evil spirits like the owner of the doll eh?
A cheerleader doll that says "whoopee"? Must be a hentai thing.
Orion: The toppings contain Potassium Benzoate.
Homer: *blank stare*
Shopkeeper:...that's bad.
@ the OP: Circuit boards, definitely. Demons, unlikely.
Again, what the hell is up with the most evil being in the known universe using freaking toys to get to children. Toys that say whoopee no less. Apparently god's greatest enemy is just a retard and if you throw his stuff away he is defeated...
Good grief man! I can think of more evil things to do than possess talking doll and scare kids.
So this is the crap he spouts in between stories about Tina, the frequently abducted, demon possessed wanna be Christian?
I had no idea that The Tina Saga would be his high water mark as an author.
Get a life, please!
That lady probably had a nightmare when she was a child. The simplest explanation is often the correct one.
We have a talking Jack Skellington head, and he has never talked or moved on his own. Only when we press the button does the reccording start. We also have non-talking heads; a Planet of the Ape, a Predator and an Alien. None of them move on their own accord. If there really were evil spirits, wouldn't they feel right at home in any of these heads?
Edit. Isn't Woopee just another "word" for Yippee?

I remember reading in one of the Little House on the Prairie books that the real Nellie Oleson had a wax doll that said "mama"--that would have probably been the 1870s.
THERE ARE NO EVIL SPIRITS.
Repeat that to yourself a million times a day and maybe you'll start to come into the realm of reality, where dolls are just dolls and homosexuality is not a choice.

Hey, how about getting a Real Doll and then having a spirit possess it and animate it.....
I daren't imagine Jay's reaction to the anime series "Rozen Maiden" (basically 'Barbie' meets "Highlander").
@solomongrundy
"Barbarella" is one of the films I never tire of watching. Your mentioning it (even with that scene with the killer dolls, which gave me nightmares when I first saw it) made a nostalgia bomb go off in my mind. Thank you. And Jane Fonda in that helped me through my puberty no end!
I think this is the third or fourth
Also, I agree with other commenters:
Take out the batteries, and it will be quiet.
If it still talks after that, then you might have a problem...
Some people really vandalize and burn other people's property, gifts or random necessities because of such irrational superstitions or psychosis-induced fears. "I had a nightmare, it must be due to x" hasty false attribution and confirmation bias fallacies. "This gives me a bad feeling, it's creepy, there must be an attached spirit", etc. And in this case it suggests that simple technology is perceived to be magic.
The Jehovah's Witnesses believe that demons can be associated to objects if someone "practiced spiritism" around an object, or anything that belonged to such "practitioner" (it can mean anything to them, including smoking marijuana, having played ouija, praying to another god or to a saint for intercession, reading a horoscope, taking the communion, watching pornography etc.). They also believe that "because they're God's people", they're more prone to demon harassment (ironically). This means that anything recently acquired may become the prime suspect for any recent trouble. Similarly, they guilt people into reporting their "sins" or to peer pressure into reporting others, saying that "the Holy Spirit's protection may be lifted from the congregation" because of a sinner. The literature and speeches demonizes fantasy games, so a parent finding such will also tend to get rid of it. Some even consider TV to be a window that can let Satan and his demons in the house.
What a toxic life. Self-tormented for bullshit.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
