An 8-ball was used as a fortune-telling device in the 1940 Three Stooges short, You Nazty Spy!, and called a "magic ball"
The Magic 8-Ball is a hollow plastic sphere resembling an oversized, black-and-white 8-ball. Inside, a cylindrical reservoir contains a white, plastic icosahedron floating in alcohol dyed dark blue. Each of the die's 20 faces has an affirmative, negative, or non-committal statement printed in raised letters. These messages are read through a window on the ball's bottom.
To use the ball, it must be held with the window initially facing down. After "asking the ball" a yes–no question, the user then turns the ball so that the window faces up, setting in motion the liquid and die inside. When the die floats to the top and one face presses against the window, the raised letters displace the blue liquid to reveal the message as white letters on a blue background. Although many users shake the ball before turning it upright, the instructions warn against doing so to avoid white bubbles, which interfere with the performance of the ball itself.

We gotta get Ron, Bob, Dave and Gerald admitting to the Yellows and Reds and aware that their Greens are suspect or they might lose credibility as the chosen and all knowing shepherds of the sheep

As an alternative, In dealing with most of these COG prophets, you would do well to play "rock , scissors or paper" in a pinch, if an Eight Ball is not handy. !
Dave Pack must not be playing with the proper ball. His ball seems to reveal only five sayings: "If not this Feast then next feast" - "Has to be on a Holy Day" - "130 proofs it will happen" - "It is imminent" - "All the ministers agree with me".
If all of these men were playing with same 8-ball then maybe we could get them orientated to the proper color, but the problem is, all of these men are improperly playing with their own b___s.
And Bob Thiel has already considered this option: Trump Presidency: Magic 8 Ball or Bible Prophecy?
THE MAGIC 8 BALL IS INVITING DEEEEEEEEEMONS INTO YOUR HOME.
Thats the proper Armstrongist over-reaction, right?
An 8 Ball is appropriate for Thiel and Malm since it is controlled by Satan.
Do they even still make those magic 8 ball thingys? I haven't seen one since the 1970s.
Bob to banned: 'I'm sorry, I don't have eight balls.' 'How can I obtain them?'
Satan controls it...
Lol
Right!
Uh, unless you pray for it?
Seriously, can’t you just see Bob Thiel annointing it in preparation for his latest trip to Africa?
