The Dubs think they're so clever with their sayings, well regarding this one the little bit of poison in the water is when they love bomb you when you start studying, once they got you and you're baptized then the "whole water system is poisoned" going along with their stupid, cutesie poopsie analogies.

"would you drink a glass of water if it had just a tiny bit of poison in it?"
by stuckinarut2 inno doubt we have all heard that well used "illustration" in public talks etc over the years:.
"if you were handed a glass of water that looked pure, but were told it has just a tiny drop of poison in it, would you drink it?".
the society has used that illustration at length to say we should avoid all influences of every part of the world.. but, as we know, the society has had a track record of errors, false ideas and doctrines.

going back to the early 1980's we had a young brother in his early 20's curse out the elders at his meeting, but then he committed suicide. His mom was a friend of my mom and she just brushed it off like "well, if he didn't want to serve Jah then I guess he's better off" . . SMH,
I wonder if she put on that brave face at just at the KH, or did she go home and shed tears for her firstborn, being that she was nurse and they're all about saving lives and helping people live.

Why is the white race so different?
by Crazyguy inwhat i'm saying is the white race is the only one that has a verity of eye and hair colors , so what gives?
is it that this race was influenced genetically by a group of pre humans that didn't mix with other races?

this topic still going strong? . . . I predict 20 pages like all the other topics on race usually last that long. Hmm, wonder why race stirs everyone up?
Remember the good ol' days whenwe were attending the meetings and we all know JWs don't see color, they accept everybody as their brother and sister because one day we would all be in Paradise singing kingdom songs and playing with a baby lion?
Hmm, I guess everybody played along at the KH and then went home and carried on with their own beliefs about race and politics, etc. what a fine bunch of actors the JWs are !!

two folks above say to visit Hoover Dam, ONLY if the temp is in normal range while you're there, when we visited it was the month of August and the temp was 107, "but there's no humidity"! as they say, doesn't matter when it's that's high, have to say if I was the age I'm at now I wouldn't have even gone on that trip, I would've been carried out on a stretcher, or they could've just blotted me up with some tissues, I would have melted from the heat

What Was/Is The Dumbest JW Belief?
by minimus ini think the finished mystery book probably contains the stupidest beliefs ever recorded!
almost any prophecy publication but especially anything to do with revelation, is unbelievable!

James Mixon - We are God's chosen people...
Yeah, that's a good choice, since the JWs have been around about the same time as the lightbulb and other religions go back "just a tad" further than that, yet they are the chosen ones.
But I think just about all their beliefs are bat shit crazy, can't say God bless after someone sneezes? Really??

Crazyguy - Ok my questions were never intended to be racist,
Really?? Are you new to this board, have you noticed that the longest topics here are about race, going on for 20 some pages? You really thought you would just a page of two of comments and that was it?

that pic of above is what I grew up on as a kid, but there was no 5-minute grits in the 60's, regular grits takes about 15-20 minutes to cook, when the instant one did come out though, I will say I like it much better than the regular, the regular ones didn't have that much of a taste to me, the instant one I'm sure is loaded with salt I'm sure plus the fact it just takes a minute or two instead of 20 minutes, so not as mushy

I remember mush too ! Just yellow cornmeal meant to fill the stomach when there was not much else, now people think it's some gourmet thing, if they only knew.

I'll pray for you
by I quit! inone thing over the years social media has made me painfully aware of is how many times i see someone use the phrase "i'll pray for you" and the outcome is bad.
recently a friend of mine who at one time was my manager where i worked got cancer.
a lot of people were praying for him.

One of the main reasons I don't believe in prayer is it's just luck of the draw
I'm sure right this very minute people are praying for their relatives right next to the hospital bed, needless to say, some will make it and some won't, so what do these ultra religious folks say when the guy in the bed on the other side of the room makes but their relative doesn't and they both had folks praying for them? There's really no answer to that
