While their behavior is certainly despicable, it is their right to shun you. In this situation, you already knew that they desired to avoid any social interaction with you, yet you disregarded their wishes and imposed the interaction they sought to avoid upon them. What did you accomplish? Your words, although they are likely true, caused offense. Ian will never respect anything you say, and, notwithstanding his religious views/affiliations, he may indeed respond to future provocations with physical violence. Legal action could follow; either criminal charges or civil lawsuits. Is it worth it? Good luck to you.

Legal action is expensive. Think of it this way; new car plus trip to Tahiti, or revenge on these dirtbags; your choice! -

Jehovah's Witnesses . . . the religion that comes with a time punch clock, but unlike the other place where you punch a time clock, it does not include a paycheck. -

Are There Good People Out There?
by LaurenM ineven though i'm no longer mentally a jw (i still technically am) i do recognize that there are some benefits to being raised one.
for example, the first (and only so far) wordly guy i was involved with had to smoke weed every day and got drunk all the time and that was his idea of fun.
i couldn't help but feel bad for him.

What da hell is wrong with partying? As long as you can keep your life in balance, there's nothing to be ashamed of, notwithstanding the expressions of condemnation communicated by those who lack experience. I was raised a JW as well. If you think there is an "up side" to being raised a JW, you're delusional. -

BORING!!!!! This religion is the antidote to the adverse side effect associated with Viagra use known as a "priapism." One dose and you're softer than a McDonald's local! In any event, the sights and smells of the kingdom hall are sufficient to cause psychological castration, if castration is one's objective. -

JW sighting while shopping
by Scully ini was out today at the grocery store, picking up a few things for the weekend, when just beyond the pineapples, i spotted a jw lady i was once friends with.. i wasn't interested in engaging in conversation, so i just continued picking out fruit, when out of the corner of my eye, i see her look at me and recognize me.
she looked like she was panicking, and then darted behind a pillar in the store, trying to hide from me!.
my dd was with me and noticed what happened.

Martha Stewart Indicted ! What do you think of her now ?
by xjw_b12 in.
.
it seems martha's stock value has gone down, as well as her status in the eyes of her fans.. any opinions ?.

I think she's innocent until proven guilty. Assuming she is guilty, the crime she's charged with is insignificant when contrasted with the Enron scandal and other recent corporate scandals. But Martha makes a good scapegoat and distraction from Enron and other scandals that are too close to Dubya for comfort.

If the recent posts attributed to Mr. Bowen are indeed his words, then in my opinion, Mr. Bowen ought to change his name to Gilligan.

My username is meant to parody the concept of the 144,000. Who is keeping count of these folks? Arthur Andersen? Given the likelihood of error, I figured I should be entitled to an arithmetic immateriality variance to mitigate any inaccuracy in Witness counts of these "special" people.
