    I literally laugh myself sill sometimes, when I hear dubs telling others what their health problem probably is and how to cure it. i.e. Sister sore arm, tells other sister sorearmtoo that he problem is a lack of eating certain kinds of vegetables and fruit, Sister sorearmtoo goes home tell hubby what she was told and for a week eats these vegetables and fruits, back at the meeting another sister, tell her no, its do to such and such and you have to do such and such to cure it. So goes another week of following their advice, in the mean time she is ignoring all the advice from her Medical Dr. and just following the advice she is getting at God's "house." Another weekend comes and another remedy arrives, finally she finds out that all those who experienced her particular symptoms are still experiencing them and they don't follow their Dr.s advice either. what a buch huh. Make me LMAO just thinking about them. I also feel very sorry for them, the halls are full of it, whether it be biblical bull, made up remedies, or kissing the ass of the elders and the society.

    funniest health related story i know of in the KH is..

    an elder in a neighboring kh is a reflexologist.. now at the time i didnt know what that was.. (they work on your feet )

    well, one sister was talking to another sister after a sunday meeting and said " OH i'm so much better, i went to brother dan and he manipulated my uterus!"

    i about fell out of my chair......then she told me it was workin on the part of the foot thats connected to her uterus.. (whatever part that is)

    " OH i'm so much better, i went to brother dan and he manipulated my uterus!"

    LMAO

    I'm speechless... What could I have possible said to that, had I heard it first hand?

    I think falling out of my chair would be the appropriate thing to do.

    On a side note:

    Is there a part of my foot that connects to my penis?

    Just wondering if I can get any stimulation from merely walking and running.

    candidly, you are too funny! I'm crying here. Reminds me of those Victorian ladies who'd go to the doctor to get orgasms like it was a medical procedure.

    Reflexology was BIG in the two congos where I grew up! SisterHypochondriac loaned out her book to Sister I hurt there, too! and of course to my Mother, who just ate it up!

    Next came colonics, and that was just the most wonderful cure for everything! It usually meant missing meetings for the week, due to "toilet time."

    Somewhere in there, the chelation craze spread, and Dubs were spending $125 a session to an unlicensed practioner to clean out their arteries with some mysterious solution. That was so marvelous, everyone felt as though they had a new body!

    Add to that, the revered Shaklee products, various vitamin cures, and healthy diet crazes, and it was almost like a hobby to the Witlesses. Guess they just desperately need a little excitement in their lives.

    Okay, what the hell is with reflexology and JWs? It was big in my hall too. It seems identical to the JW Trekkie movement!
