    i ONCE ATE 4 BIG MACS

    I was going to say 'lightweight, Chiddy'' - I once ate 9, yes NINE, Cadbury's Creme Eggs.

    So - surely, by THEIR rules, ONE OR two cigarettes is acceptable.

    They can't do that. Obese and Glutton isn't synonym

    I'll never forget the "Vomitorium" on Saturday Night Live. Another classic is the dining room seen in Monty Python's "Meaning of Life."

    Yes, a person can be disfellowshipped for gluttony.

    However, as in my congregation, there are many large sisters who have never been spoken to about their eating problems. I don't think anyone would dare, especially as most of them are married to appointed men.

    Interesting how a recent watchtower article accused "heavy petting courting couples" as being gready!

    The next time I eat my wifes face in a moment of passion, I think I may have to pull away in case I get fat on her loveliness. Ooh la la.

    For the reccord, there isn't really such a thing as a disfellowshipping act - if you are a persistant rebel - technically you can be disposed of. So if it's too much cake or you are swinging with the elders - beware.

    No matter how on point the remark was, I don't think one would see past the insult of being called fat to understand she's being a hypocrite. Of the hell hath no fury like a woman called fat class (even if she is as big as a VW bus). Shoshana

    Greetings smoky,

    Why aren't they disfellowshipping for that?......

    They wouldn't have any unpaid volunteers left in our hall if they did that. We had a host of cows & sows here. They need someone to fill those chairs, even if they need two.
