    Wondering everyone's best hypocrisy stories.

    One of many for me is an elder who told me he doesn't think gambling is wrong and smoking the "odd" cigar is fine. Beauty!

    He's now a P.O. in a local cong.

    Any good stories?

    This must have been talked to death before with the lack of responses.

    How about an MS I knew who said how could he be upset at his wife for cheating on him because "it's not like I haven't cheated on her recently".

    I knew of a JW who ripped off his own wife's nephew in a business they were having together, he exploited family trust and the fact that certain things were not officially recorded and threw him out.

    I've never known anyone more tight and money loving than him. When I once visited his elderly parents and he got to hear of it he was upset and said "why did he go and bother my old folk". However they were pleased to see me and his father told us some interesting stories about his life.

    Witnesses who would benefit from worldly families lottery wins. Nope, no problem with it if it benefits them. Unrighteous riches or something.

    The elder who sat on juidicial committees and supposedly had God's holy spirit directing him...oh wait...that was the spirit of lust directing him in his years long affair with another elder's wife...

    The P.O. who liked to watch his R rated movies on his big screen TV

    The P.O.'s wife who liked to criticize everyone ruthlessly but who cheated on her husband while he was jailed over draft doging

    (There are some benefits to being the doormat of friends with the snarky P.O.'s daughter!)

    Its not ok to send a birthday card or present to your grand daughter but it is ok to sing happy birthday down the phone.

    • The presiding overseer (also a mechanic) sent his son to dispose of trade waste in a residential tip to avoid paying the trade waste costs!
    • The elder who covered up a long standing affair with another woman in the congregation but still found it within himself to disfellowship his own son for immorality too!
    • Dont start me!

    We had an elder who showed up at a casual business meeting that turned out to be at a strip club. He decided to go ahead because he didn't want to blow the deal.

    I better not tell my 5,000 stories because someone may recognize me!

    OK, one more... A brother told me to suck his %$#@ once during a hockey game when I inadvertently ran into him!

    Ahhh, agape love at it's finest!

    How about the elder who left his UBM for a sixteen year old girl (younger than his own daughters)?
