You are actually the one being discourteous. Discourteous to all those who are victims of abuse which includes sexual abuse inside the WT religion. To all those who have been hit on by elders and MS's, witnessed wife swapping, sex parties and scores of young couples forced into loveless marriages because of doing what is natural. Their stories are here and all over the Internet. Many have never even told their story. Like my wife's cousin who was molested by their PO from age 4 to 14. He also molested her sister and two brothers. Then there is the discouraged elder i met in the DR who had been sent a bad letter of introduction. His only lament was "how could those other elders do that to him when he had helped two of them hide their affairs from the congregations"
The dubs are no better than anyone else in the area of morals, and arguably worse because they are repressed. When it comes to financial matters the WT "no sue" policy makes the congregations a den of thieves!
JW's propagate the appearance of piety and moral uprightness, however beneath the surface there is just like the Jews of Jesus day, a pile of dead man's bones. You are obviously not an elder and even then not all elders involve themselves in the JC process.
When you have the chance to rifle through just one congregations JC files then come back here and tell us we are wrong!
