i went to the meeting tonight to check out things in the local congregation. This spiritual paradise is showing a few cracks. When i arrived about ten minutes before the meeting started, i felt like a ghost. i move around but no one seems to know i am there. no one speaks or even looks at me anymore according to wt instructions. i have never in my life even sat before a judicial committee, yet it appears i have created a new qualification within the organization. the undf, you go to meetings yet you do not exist. a sidepoint-when i showed up for service about a month ago, i was assigned in my own car by myself with no territory. anyone ever heard of that one?
back to the meeting, during the instruction talk i decide to go to the bathroom, as usual i am escorted by an attendant who follows me when i leave my seat. i wonder what they think i am going to do? the attendant pretends to just have a need to be close by and busy with other things. it is starting to tick me off. i decide to stand at the back for the questions to the instruction talk. i raise my hand for the first question, no one else does. the speaker waits and waits, finally, another hand goes up which he pounces on for relief. did i mention that part of the undf? i am told i am not on restrictions and can comment freely, but everyone who has a part on the meeting is instructed not to call on me. I like to raise my hand about 20 to 30 times when i attend, just to make a statement.
everything goes pretty smooth till talk #4, the theme was "why we should always go to the elders when we sin" or words to that effect. it was given by a young lad of 22 who i sat on a judicial committee for, less than six months ago. he confessed to multiple acts of oral and regular sex with a local sister and not telling anyone for three years. we let him off with reproof, i was so jaded at that point i could not see much point to the judicial process. yet this guy gets up on the stage and proceeds to chastize the congregation for hiding sin? i could not stand to listen to it, so i went to the bathroom again, you guessed it, i had my escort. this time i decided to have some fun. after going to the bathroom i beat him out the door and just waited beside the door. he jumped out of his hide when he saw me standing there. he then pretended to go to inspect the bulletin board, so i escorted him. i just stood about one foot away and followed him around. he finally got the point and went back to his seat, i stood close by for a little while and then went back to my seat. next came the service meeting, a local needs parts that to this moment i cannot figure out what the local need was, something about the creation book. next came the magazine sales part. this part topped the entire night, why? when it came time for the demonstration the local child molester gave the sermon. this is the individual who lied about the multiple molestations of one child and may have molested as many as five children i personally know, this person was offering a "teaching" part on the service meeting. this was specifically stated as a no no in the letter we recieved from the society, yet there he was as big as life.
does the wt protect pedophiles?
Well locally our pedophile can comment at the meetings and currently has teaching parts on the service meeting. i on the other hand have none of these "priveledges" and for what? telling the truth and turning him in.
after the meeting was over, the only person who spoke to me was a move in elder who asked where my wife was. this is interesting, as she has not attended a meeting in four months and this elder has never met her. was he being a little saracastic?
let the reader use discernment. i did manage to talk him out of june km. i then went to the magazine counter to pick up mags and was told "we gave yours all away." this love is killing me....so then like a ghost i faded away, well almost, i have a pickup with loud pipes and could not resist leaving a little rubber in the parking lot.... if an undf person lays rubber in the parking lot will anyone really hear it??
if you sum all of this up, it is just how the wt punishes those who expose child molesters. think how much more horrific this would be if i was a victim. yet far worse things have happened to poor victims who are run off from all friends and family when they try to seek justice. i do this for a purpose, but what about the victims who are fighting for their sanity while watching the child molester have parts on the meeting, remain an elder or ms and have the blessing of the congregation at the direction of the wt?
outrage
need i say more?
