I'm here. I travel at lot for business (now I pay attention to the real important things like my family 1st, my business which is rapidly expanding and NOT the organization) and don't get on every day. It looks like a few more newbies have joined me in telling about their PAST "rank" in the organization. That's good to see as I'm sure many more did big things for the borg only to see through it in the end and that's great! The higher you go, the more you are used (or I mean recieve priviledges...sorry), and the more influential people you meet at those levels you really begin to see and hear things that turn the light bulb on that something is wrong. The publishers in the local congregation never sees these things.......and for the most part would never believe it if you told them. I have stories/conversations of DO's and other high rankers that I delt with that were aware of the key issues....UN, Pedo issue and other things and yet would virtually deny it if put on the spot. You can only take so much of the hypocrisy before you decide enough is enough which is exactly what I did and have never looked back.
And now.......ImFreeNow!!!

Regarding the higher ups that knew everything, these are the biggest two faced hypocrites. They KNOW what's wrong but due to their not wanting to lose prestige, they bury it and YOU if necessary!
