Oohhhhhhh, no no no no.
You're not gonna get away with that here.
I tell you what. You go to your next regularly scheduled service at your Kingdom Hall and you count for me the number of African-Americans there and report back to me with what percentage of your congregation they represent.
I'll frankly be shocked if it's more than 10%.

My original post,
if you post something with spiritual content, i will consider it, your insinuations of
hypocrisy are typical of the tabloid and empty nature of your posts, when you post
something with spiritual content, i will consider it, otherwise, you appear to me to
continue in the same tedious vain and hold no interest for me. Please dont be

hold no fascination, sorry.
