  Tired of the Hypocrisy

  I got this from another JWD'r who had trouble loading the images.

  If you can somehow post this to JWD (or JWN) please do so. I tried but couldn't get the pics to show up. I think it's one of the funniest JW emails ever!
  

  >Subject: Result of Chernobyl [JW] -- LOOK AT THE PICTURES FIRST >It is IMPORTANT that you look at the pictures BEFORE you read the message below. >You will appreciate this MORE if you do so. Thus go ahead and look at the pictures first. (Open attachments) One of the pictures attached is with a little boy. Take a close look at him. He is actually 21 years old and attended pioneer school in Kiev . His name is Sasha and he is a great example. The way he learned the truth is very interesting. One of our sisters met Sasha's fleshly sister in the ministry. She started studying, and Sasha would sit in on the study. This all started about three years ago. When he would sit in, the sister conducting the studies thought how nice it was for this little child (since he looks like he is only four years old) to sit in on the study - and also noticed how much he was understanding. She was really amazed at his comments and his intelligence. Then one day while looking at photographs, she noticed that in the photographs the girl with whom she was conducting the study was very young, but Sasha looked exactly the same. She started asking questions and found out that Sasha was actually older than his sister - he was 18 years old! He was four years old when the Chernobyl disaster happened - he stopped growing that year. Many children received medicine that helped, but because his mom and dad were poor and both alcoholics, he never received the help he needed. He is an incredible person. On top of his small stature, he also has a stuttering problem. But it does not slow him down. He is very zealous in the ministry and loves Jehovah. He's been baptized two years and pioneering for one year."

  Thanks for getting that to post, TOTH. Simply hilarious. Like something from "The Onion" yet JW's somehow believe every word.

  "...He was four years old when the Chernobyl disaster happened - he stopped growing that year. Many children received medicine that helped, but because his mom and dad were poor and both alcoholics, he never received the help he needed..."

  Looking at that picture, I find this claim incredibly hard to believe. The kid in the picture looks like a healthy young boy of about 6 or 7 years of age. Even if he had stopped growing at the age of four due to exposure from Chernobyl, his facial features would still continue change and mature. If they didn't, and if he continued to look this good at 30, 40 or 50, then in essence, Chernobyl would have created a 'fountain of youth' for this guy.

  I'd say this is another crock of shit Urban Legend that will circulate amongst the JWs for the next 100 years.
