Vegetarian. But, sometimes I like mashed potatoes with a meat substitute,does that count? And I like tofu.

At what point did you realize JW's were a Cult?
by Think About It inmost of us x-jw's at one point no doubt defended the jw's when called a cult.
althought being out since 95', when i first came here it took awhile before i could use the cult word to describe the jw religion.
finding out about the pedophile scandal was disgusting, but it was probably finding out here about the wts history and terrible personal experiences of some on this board that made me finally admit that the jw's were a cult.

Well, the last few months, I can see now,where it would be a cult. The very fact that I have to plan my exit from the Witnesses. They want your whole life to be centered around the religion,everything else is bad,even hobbies,because they take away field service time. I'm afraid of sharing any negative thoughts I have with those still in,because of not wanting to be df-d.
I was raised in this and it seems more and more focus is put on the "faithful slave" than God and Jesus.
And they're teaching the Witnesses to hate outsiders and those that left the org. more and more.
And they call it the "truth". ugh. All their special words and how they abbreviate the special words. Like COBE, this pioneer sister I know calls it "KOBY', like someone's name. It makes them feel so special and different.

Blondie's Comments You Will Not Hear at the 10-17-10 WT Study (TONGUE)

Yes, thanks. I went to the Watchtower study today. And I heard a lot of crazy comments. I think my hall should hand out awards after the meeting for the most off-the-wall comments.
One concluding comment given in review,was given by an older sister. Who I'm starting to suspect is part of the conscious class.
She brought up about honesty. And when we ask each other how we came into the truth we could ask what really is the truth.
Okay,conductor starts to get uneasy,not sure where this is going. But, she just says how being a Christian is about being honest,and that is one way we show loving kindness. But, more was said,and in a round about way, I think she has some issues. I think her son and his family does too.
But,anyway,there were some other off-the-wall remarks,but this one got my attention. And a pioneer sister put up her hand afterwards and did the damage control comment.

..Are you Ready for a McWedding?...
by OUTLAW injust when you thought the world couldn`t get any tackier... .
the mcdonald's wedding packageby john farrier in business on oct 14, 2010 at 2:24 pmafter a couple met, dated, and then hosted their wedding party at a mcdonalds location in hong kong, the company began offering wedding packages in that city:.
the package has all the details to attract a wedding banquet cynic or a golden arches obsessive: a baked apple pie wedding cake, dress made out of party balloons, kiddie party favors for guests, and of course, catering by mcdonalds.. alcohol is banned to make sure there wont be drunk party guests acting inappropriately at the family venue, so newly weds will have to toast their union with soft drinks instead.. the cost will be a few thousand hong kong dollars, depending on what guests order on the spot.

It's seems the men I meet on-line, turn out to already be married or too young for me.
Billy the Ex-Bethelite, the only volunteering they let sisters do anymore at the conventions is clean the women's bathroom. If I met a brother in there, I don't think he's for me.

The Carol Burnette show was good. I was quite young,but still got it. I don't think they had any political humor or made fun of celebrities or any group. And it was still funny.

I agree "Taxi" was hilarious. Remember when Louie and the red head, (the character's name escapes me)went on a date. That was hilarious.
