    SHOO-FLY Pie

    One pioneer meeting during the CO's visit, we were asked for some illustrations we could use in the Ministry Work. Although I knew it was a little obscure, I raised my hand and said "In the Ministry, I have used a SHOO-FLY Pie to illustrate Christendom's Satanic message. The main ingredients in a SHOO-FLY Pie are hot water and molasses. The pie's name is said to be due to the fact that pies were set to cool on windowsills and the cook would constantly have to shoo the flies away. So too, people are attracted to Christendom's message like flies, although it is made up of nothing but hot water and sweet words people want to hear...but void of anything nutritional and lifesaving." LOLOL ::: shoots herself now ::::

    I cannot help but see the same thing happening on this Discussion Board...except it is the JWs, Trolls or anti-apostates (LOL) this time who are using these "Satanic" pie tactics. People like Fred Hall, Yo Yo Mama, You Know, NYTelecom ...and screen names into infinity. Although, their words are far from sweet...we flock to them just like we would if someone told us there was a terrible accident outside and a headless body was laying on our sidewalk. We can't help it. We've become the flies. Attracted to threads that have nothing to offer but sick diversion. Secretly, like Satan (lol) they sit there, laughing sadistically behind their computer screens...because they are deflecting us with empty one liners, painful insults, personal attacks. Meanwhile, hundreds of visitors a day...perhaps JWs searching for real information or who are in need of comfort are lost. These pie wielding trolls have won.

    Luckily, I have some suggestions for what we could do with the pie!

    *sigh* once again...I did a JW.Com faux pas ...

    I should have named the thread:

    "Come in and See My Pie!"

    interesting thoughts...

    People are prone to ignore the obvious under social pressure.

    Hence the prevalence of the 'bleeding rhinocerous on the carpet' analogy. The dinner guests come in one by one and comment on the drapes, the tablecloth, the appetizers, but NOT the bleeding rhinocerous in the middle of the floor.

    Even though they have to step over it to cross the room!

    Ever had a conversation like this, when you wait and wonder who is going to first mention the fact most important and obvious?
