What I thought was a crazy comment from the book study last week.
by ?me? inlast week in the book study the paragraph stated that satan used "false religion" to lead people away from jehovah.
citing the teaching of false "truths" in the bible (trinity, hellfire, etc).
i almost had to comment because i do not believe this is so because i think we would all agree that just about all religions outside of jw's are way more vocal about hating the devil, satan.

What if caffeine was banned for JWs?
by undercover ina post about caffeine and coffee in the "what if the wts banned alcohol" thread jogged my memory.... back in the 70s sometime (i can't remember if it was pre-75 or post-75) a rumor started circulating around our area that at the next convention the wts was going to add caffeine and caffeine products (coffee, coke, etc) to the list of banned substances (tobacco, blood).
of course, it never happened, but for a couple of months the rumors were hot and heavy.
the rumors were easily believed by a lot of the dubs because of the "up" effects caffeine can give you and besides, the mormons banned it, there had to be a reason.

Noah's rectangular Ark
by vomit insomething from when i was younger; i always was forced to believe that noahs ark was rectangular, since it was in the bible stories and other publications that way.
but in any other religious books the ark always had at least a bit of a curved stern and a v or u shaped hull.
a v or u shaped hull with ribs is far stronger, timber efficient, hydrodynamic and can take a few hits.
