It comes from the deep south (in the U.S)...means shut the door...in summer, you are letting cold air out and flies in..people who were brought up around farms say that..I heard it from my country mother all the time, unfortunately.

The phrase "were you born in a barn" meaning why have you left the door open was originally "were you born in Bardney".
Bardney in Lincolnshire was the site of an important monastery Tupholme Abbey and when the king Saint Oswald was killed they tried to bring his bones into the abbey but the monks kept the doors shut...

No would nicely be born returned and then die to the Spirit. that is calling God a liar. He purely concept he grew to become into born returned. He grew to become into deluded via emotion, the sensation of recognition, or some thing else. Church historic previous has not something to do with being born returned, neither does the translation used, different than for the NWT that's of devil.

Because barn doors are huge and mostly always open during the day.

I thought that was "we're not heating the neighborhood!"
Born in a barn means living in a pig-sty and not being civilized. Think about it: An animal born in a barn sleeps on hay. poops on the hay. eats the hay. did I mention poops on the hay?

"were you born in a barn" simply a way of saying "your a pig" . animals that live in a barn do not pickup after themselves, therefor need people to care for them. so if your born in a barn you dont clean up after yourself and need others to take care of you.
