  Annoying JW Vegan....

  by lalaa in

  my co-worker is a vegan and jw constantly talks about how healthy she is...blah, blah, blah....all day long and she's getting on my last nerve.

  she's always posting how meat is murder on facebook and how all meat eaters are sooo uneducated.

  funny since she dropped out of home schooling and never recieved her ged.

  I am not a vegan, however I do have a large number of friends that are either vegetarian or vegan. They are not annoying, in fact some of them try to keep it hidden because so many people are (as is evident from this thread) so outspoken against it. One friend rarely goes out to dinner because she does not want to draw attention to her way of eating. The friends I have that are vegan are well educated regarding food choices and every one of them is absolutely DROP DEAD GORGEOUS - which makes me rethink my love of meat.

  The person spoken of at the start of this thread should keep her mouth shut, because she makes the vegan community look like a bunch of loonies!

  i've lurked on this forum since about the end of '10.

  my first "apostate experience" began @ age 14. first a little backround.. i was baptised at 10, and did so mostly out of:.

  ) pressure from my mom to get baptised so that i would be safe from armaggedon(she was probably pressured from elders),.

  I love the way she is closing her eyes. I wish I could find fruit that sensual - I suppose that would make me a bit of a pervert though.

  What Did You Not Do Because You Were A Jehovah's Witness That You Wanted To Do?

  by minimus in

  i didn't go to college and of course, "higher education" was never recommended.

  still, i never felt terribly deprived because of not going further in my education.. yet, i did wish that i could've had "normal" aka "worldly friends".

  i wish that as witnesses, we could've been better integrated with other people.

  I walked out of an Elder's Meeting

  well here goes... i apologize in advance if this turns into a long and disjointed rant, but i just have to begin typing in order to keep from exploding.

  i realize that what im about to say could seriously jeopardize my anonymity, but i think ive reached the point that i just dont care.

  i want this to be over.. let me explain what caused me to rip up a letter and get up and walk out in the middle of an elders meeting two weekends ago.. our boe has been embroiled in a nasty fight for the past 2 years over a certain brothers business dealings.

  I am in agreement with Doubting Bro...You have a perfect excuse to be stumbled right out of the "Christian Congregation". Walk away while you have this opening.

  i briefly touched on the drama in another post, but i felt i needed to share in greater detail this latest masterpiece.. .

  this was the drama on sunday.

  the story alternates between the story of joseph, son of jacob, and a witness kid (forgot his name;billy?

  And remember, if you do things Jehovah's way, it ALWAYS, ALWAYS, ALWAYS works out right, but if you don't, it NEVER, NEVER, NEVER does (as many victims of child molestation in the Hall will vouch for!)

  You nailed it!

  So the drama portrays a approved teenage worshipper as having no friends at the hall or at school? What is this telling every JW high school student in the audience?...If you are liked by anyone, you must be sinning?

  The drama should appropriately end with Timmy receiving a Rhodes scholarship to Oxford, but turning it down to be a window washer.
