  The usual power struggles, politics, divisions and enforcing ones own opinion on everything form dress standards to hair styles.

  Though one elder, (from Oz) who with his wife and kids was featured in a w/t experience and then featured on one of the calendars a few years back (yes that meant looking at him for two months on the wall), was very vocal that he enjoyed oral sex! At one jdub gathering he mentioned to a few of the brothers around him that his wifey gives him hj's at work, driving in the car, anywhere!

  A few sisters complained about him as their husbands were then asking for oral sex saying it was ok as bro _____ gets it and he is an elder! He was removed as an elder after a few months, not because he was gettin it, but because he was vocal in his support of it encouraging the practice in the congo!! It took 2 c/o's to delete him, though has still stayed in that congo as a larger than life figure....

  PS - I saw him & his wifey at the last district convention I went to and still lol when I see him walking down the aisle smiling. (mental pictures)

  I hate it when elders take it upon themselves to start making up rules. In one cong my mum was in years ago a CO told the sisters they shouldn't wear trousers at all, ever, even when not at meetings! What a twat! Apparently people complained and he did get reprimanded. I should think so too.

  We had an elder that said some forms of kissing were fornication. This same elder wanted everybody to pronounce "Isaiah" the same way the brother reading it on the bible tapes pronounced it. That guy is from England/Scottland/Ireland(sorry, not sure) and not Midwest United States. He would even correct people while he was on the stage if they mispronounced it. He was such an a**hole.

  We had a new guy appointed as congregation overseer who actually gave a prayer and thanked Jehovah for the special spirit upon the congregation since he had himself been appointed.
