Well, this may not fit with this thread-but the WwwwWWWWS that witnessed to me had me comvinced not to buy a certain brand because a symbol on their products represented devil worship. There I was for a couple years scanning packages before I bought them to make sure that symbol wasn't there. How silly-I never found out for myself if it was true.

Biblically, it was alright to eat meat that had been sacrificed to idols, as long as it wasn't a stumbling block. My question to the genius that told you that is what difference would it make?

Was it that tired old saw about Proctor and Gamble?
That one was so easily disproven, I heard it debunked in junior high school.
So much bs grew wings in twi, but a good websearch can debunk so much of the bunk
There were different versions of the P&G story. The most amusing was that the CEO had supposedly said on some talk show that he had sold out to Satan for his (and P&G's) success. Of course, no one could find the actual tape. Equally looney (pun intended) was the idea that the "man in the moon" symbol was designed so that in the mirror the curls on his beard look like "666." (It actually did, but I doubt there was diabolical influence.)
When I went to work for Dow, one of my co-workers in graduate school went to P&G. I asked him how it was, working for Satan. "Great! We have naked women everywhere and drug breaks every hour!" :lol:
Hello, I'd like to weight in about something that I heard. A fellow AC grad told me once that 2 of the most powerful influences in American culture were # 1(what or whom) and # 2 The Moody Blues.
Anyone ever hear this? Can anyone elaborate on this. I think I might not have quoted this unsubstantiated claim right, but that's the gist of it!
~The Moody Blues~ They were seed of the serpent for sure!
Prince took PFAL, but left afterwards because he was possessed.
Here's what I know about the Prince thing. When I lived in Idaho, one of the believers--she was WC--played the guitar. She was really good and used to play with Prince, before the Prince and the Revolution days. Anyway, she was in his band, but is one of those talented musicians who hung it up for "the Word." I think that's about as close as Prince came to taking PFAL.
I wonder where she is now. I know she's not WC and is divorced. Hopefully she's playing guitar and touring again.
I guess if I'd have continued reading the thread, I'd have seen that you already knew this.

Oh yeah, I remember that too. Some people in my area had me looking for a symbol that was on several household products, Procter and Gamble, and others, if I remember correctly. It was supposed to support communism. I found the symbol on Tide laundry detergent and reported it to some girls in my fellowship. They "confirmed" it for me...yep, don't buy this product because it's made by a company that supports communism. Years later when I'm on staff at HQ, what laundry detergent are they using? Yep, Tide. Buncha double-talk.

I just wondered about this statement that I heard from an AC grad. Does anyone else here remember something along those lines? And what was the #1 influence in our culture? :blink:

Don't remember this, but if #2 is the Moody Blues, then #1 has to be the Dire Straits.
The biggest one I remember was one LCM seemed to complain about every other week and that was that the Pope was everything from the Antichrist to seed of the serpent, etc. Week after week the Pope was constantly under fire by LCM.

That's only because the Pope had a bigger following..

This is probably the first website you should check, if you're looking to see
if various tall tales of twi had some basis in fact.
