Hilarious!
I laughed with the power of 1000 hurricances
Confusedandalone, I guess this is in line with the criticism that some elder bodies had of a absent spouses admitting adultery in either writing or verbal communication that was relayed to the elders via a letter or other means to the spouse wanting a scriptural divorce. In years past they would study the handwriting signature as if they were handwriting specialists, lol, and make a decision if the remaining spouse was up to something ot free to marry.
And then they would say, "You must wear a red A on you garments". Oh, that story has already been told.
When I quit attending, I was ordered to attend a jc on the charge I was seen in a car smoking.
I still lived w/my parents so I had to go or get kicked out of the house. My jw mother had financially abused me so I had no cash to move.
I went and kept repeating, "I just don't want to attend the meetings anymore." I denied the charge which was untrue. They asked if I had sex with the guy I was seeing, and I honestly said no. They couldn't pin anything on me because I honestly didn't do anything. Then they went the apostate/deny the FDS route. I refused to take the bait and just kept saying I do not want to go to the meetings anymore, and I wouldn't be coming back.
Afterwards my mothers told me the other elders were really mad at the 2 elders who met with me because they did not get my kh key back. I gave it up and lol'd--"What reason would I have for wanting it?"
Then they asked for my pioneer ID card back. I couldn't find it and frankly I couldn't care less so I blew it off. They kept asking and said I MUST return it. Again I said, "Why on Earth would I even want it? Do they honestly think I am going to go around showing it to people and claiming I'm a pioneer? The only thing I can do with that card is get literature discounts at the assemblies. What am I going to do, sneak in to the convention and save $1 on some books I don't want to read?" lol
After all that, they kept assigning me talks. They said I had to call them personally to cancel the talk--they would not accept my mom's word for it. I said absolutely not. She said what is going to happen when they call your name then? I said I guess there will be an awkward silence.
Oh, and a while after that, a bro invited me to go out in field service with him!
I hate you, don't leave me. Silly people, small minds.
@ Clarity, it's Confused and Alone's acronym.
They got mixed up in a highly legalistic religious doomsday cult/publishing corporation. It's sad, really. At this point they are harrassing you, and any more time you spend dealing with their petty requirements is a big waste.
What is happening with the Bethelite gal with apostate leanings you hired?
These people are unreal, they really are the botchtower society. When I stepped down they told me that I needed to get approval from the branch. They messed up the paperwork and I had to have another round of procedings with the elders. I love your plan to just leave those fuck3rs hanging!
Our ex-bethelite friend has assured us that none of what is happening matters to her. She is a constant reader here - I have seen her looking during work.
We discuss alot of things in regards to religion. The biggest shock to me was a conversation we had on Paulinity and how she feels that everything after the Gospels is really just the ramblings of a failed Pharisee. This floored me actually.
Most importantly she likes to work saturday mornings LOL - I think that is all that needs to be said about that LOL
Love your laughter and attitude.
Enjoyed that story, rebel8.
Can you file your resignation in triplicate and sign all three in black ink?
