I haven't watched TV or read a newspaper in over a month, seems that since I've been at college I just haven't had the time, or desire to do so, however, I do get tid bits of news here and there, and the sniper thing really upsets me, I think it does more so than if i had been exposed to all the other violence and bad things happening in the news, its surprising how sensitive you can become to violence when you've been cut off of it for a while.

elders paranoid about baby shower
by jurs inperhaps someone out there knows if this is a common jw paranoia.
once a sister in my hall was going to have a baby.
because she wasn't in the "click" no one offered to give her a baby shower.

Anyone here a vegetarian?
by crownboy inhow many of you guys are vegetarians?
in my personal experience, i've only known of two jw vegetarians, and both were so for health reasons.
so i'd like to see how the x-jw community compares.

I TRIED being a vegetarian one, it didn't last long because everyday my family had meat as the main course for dinner. But now that I'm away at college and there is always a vegetarian option, I think I'll try it again. I want to see if not eating meat really does make you feel better. I gave up drinking soda about a year ago, I felt better after that. Everytime I'm tempted to eat meat I'll envision the meat as a dead animal carcass, that should help....

"the difference between 'involvement' and 'commitment' is like an eggs-and-ham breakfast: the chicken was 'involved' - the pig was 'committed'.
