Most of us on here know that love bombing is a cult trait and many on here have said that they experienced it at the kingdom hall. This might be a stupid question but maybe because I'm a born in the behavior seems normal to me and I don't notice it. But how is it different than going to any other church where people introduce themselves to you? Or do people at other churches not welcome new visitors? I don't know. I haven't visited a church yet.

undercover, you're braver than I am. I can't bring myself to eat butter, let alone fried butter.

snowbird, yes, fried butter. I'm not creative enough to make this up. Here's a link for proof. The guy who made the fried butter also invented fried coke(as in coca-cola).

"Deep Fried Butter is the creation of Abel Gonzales Jr., who's received previous Big Tex honors for his Texas Fried Cookie Dough, Fried Coke and Fried Peanut Butter, Jelly and Banana Sandwich."

Sorry Rubadub, you're right.
Really anything fried. Every year at the state fair of Texas they fry something. Twinkies, snickers. I can't remember if it was last year or the year before they fried butter.

Wow, Leolaia. Thanks for the link. I wasn't sure how true that story was myself but it looks like there might be more truth to it than I realized.
