Guest Biblicist Posted October 17, 2007 Share Posted October 17, 2007 You are quite right Patrica... I don't think it is so much that people like to gossip. I think it's that people have a difficult time discerning between what is gossip and what is not. What is truth and what is fallacy. I heard on a commercial the other day...."If it wasn't true, we couldn't say it on television." REALLY!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard on a commercial the other day...."If it wasn't true, we couldn't say it on television." REALLY!! hi bibs..missed everyone...my keyboard died on me!!! Can you believe it!! I know ..you just gave me a hearty laugh. I love that commercial for tylenol. It says tylenol is the #1 painreliever hospitals use. This is true. but they do not tell you they do not use aspirin because it thins out the blood and since most go for surgery aspirin would not be used. If it was not for the blood thinning qualities, which at times the hospitals do use, aspirin would be used and the in the last thirty years demerol and hydromorphine were the top pain relievers. If I used plain tylenol for post surgical pain not many would make it through..... My daughter who is seven I find yelling at the t.v. during commercials saying " YEAH.....RIGHT!!!" in that tell me another one attitude. I guess she got tired of waiting for Lucky to jump out of the Lucky charms box..hehehe Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 This isn't from the Bible but is still true. I don't know who said it, but I borrowed it from an old friend. "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Better to remain silent and be thought a fool, than to open your mouth and remove all doubt." I think that is from the Bible, just maybe not in those exact words.

Guest Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 Even God was not continually austere and without humour. Who cannot look at some of His creatures and their communications and but laugh? And is it always wrong to say so outside their presence? Oh How I Love Jesus! Thou art worthy, O Lord, to receive glory and honour and power: for thou hast created all things, and for thy pleasure they are and were created.Revelation 4:11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
