One night when my wife was complaining to me about the child's insolence, out of nowhere I said, "Her problems are those stinking doll babies, it's witchcraft".
The next night while I was praying for someone's DELIVERANCE, she picked up an encyclopedia to check what it said about dolls! There it was: "origin in witchcraft and magic".

Yes because we must destroy any form of joy that your child may have. That will make them a good fundie.
As far as dolls go, they seem to go back to pre-history. Nobody seems to know where they started.

a fragment of an alabaster doll with movable arms from the Babylonian period was recovered.
Egyptian tombs of wealthy families have included pottery dolls.
Dolls were also buried in Greek and Roman children's graves.
Oh noes! The doll has roots in the black magicks! Runs for the Hills, runs!!!
Burn the doll! And the Encyclopedia! (The Encyclopedia does have the word "witchcraft" in it, after all...which clearly means that it is haunted by demonic Jew spirits from beyond Neptune).
What encyclopedia had this entry? Please cite and include page number and entry.
Otherwise, Demonbuster is busted for lying through his teeth.
Your problem is you have the doll's switch set to "evil". Just flip it to "good", and everything will be fine.
Man, I'm such a big Simpsons Fundie :P
Every time I see demonbuster I always hear
If there's something strange in your neighbourhood
Who you gonna call?
Or
If you're walking down the street
And you see a little ghost
What you going to do about GHOSTBUSTERS.
And witchcraft as a means for kids being insubordiante? Man you really need to come out of the 1600's here.
No, no, I've seen this definition in a 'christiopedia', not it's evil counterpart 'encyclopedia' which is used by heathen and infidel the world over.
You see, a story has to have at least two out of three. He clearly had no logos, if nothing else he has a warped kind of pathos (THE child?), and the encyclopedia bit was intended to lend him ethos. FAIL.
I hope these people never see that part of 'Barbarella' when the children attack her with those piranha-toothed mechanical dolls.
Actually, if they did they'd probably invent a reason why it was a suitable fate for such a communist liberal.
Do what your god orders you to. Stone the little brat to death.
EDIT: Papabear beat me to it, but I'm surprised he was the only one.
*facepalm*
Magick doesn't work that way, and neither does witchcraft.
Never mind the fact that poppets are commonly used for *healing* spells...
"The child's" problems may be cause by their insane father.
Also, what fucking encyclopedia are you reading?
Arne, yes it's scary that loonies like this are allowed to have babies. As Keanu Reeves' character in Parenthood puts it, "You need a license to drive a car, keep a dog or own a gun but they'll let any asshole be a parent." However, what's even more scary is the thought of the government being allowed to decide who was and was not allowed to breed, so we'll just have to accept parents like Demonbuster (assuming he isn't a Poe) as a consequence of unlicensed and unregulated human bonding. It's the lesser of two evils.

That's a bad thing, just so you know.
Do not get an encyclopedia, get a history book!
As quoted in wikipedia:"Dolls were used as representations of a deity, and played a central role in religious ceremonies and rituals." It did not say anything about witchcraft! Here is your proof: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doll
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
