Elders: Pay Attention to Your Asses! RUN!!

  Can't you see how the WT is getting ready to screw you? Just one month ago we saw Bowen call HQ (posing as an elder) and the legal dept. tells him:
  

  "leave it to Jehovah. Do not report this."

  ...and now we hear the BIG LIE tonight:
  

  "We would never tell an elder not to go to the police"

  Fellas, they're settin' each one of you up to be personally liable for every committee meeting, sheparding call and back-room conversation you ever had. You have no proof of their orders because it's all verbal (why did you think the Pay Attention book was so vague?). Think about it: All high-level orders from HQ are _verbal_ and anything that's written down is only accessible by the secretary.

  At this very moment, 8/14 2002 12:29am EST, there is a high-level legal meeting going on back east, and the number one question right now is this:
  

  "Have we protected ourselves sufficiently from the elders?"

  Once these angry girls/boys/parents turn around and sue you (and you'll lose in civil court at least, I assure you), you better have your lawyer already picked and on retainer. If you don't, I'm guessing you'll be on CNN too if the plaintiffs are as savvy as Heidi seems to be.

  So right.

  ALL the evidence shows that they are setting the elders up to take the fall.

  C'mon elders, see what LOYAL SUPPORT you are getting from this company...ZIP!

  Don't let them take you for saps... get in first.

  Look what happened to the elders in Scotland, they followed procedure, and then were thrown to the dogs.

  Don't let this happen to you, be loyal to your congregation, who are loyal to you. Not to the company who are letting you down.

  The Christian world has martyrs enough, don't let it be you.

  Watcher, you mention an excellent point:

  Somewhere out there is a P.O. who cares. I'm talking to him:

  Believe this: Just like Eli was humbled, so will the WTBTS be corrected by Jehovah and it's gonna happen real quick. Right now, you should make a phone call to a lawyer, pay him the few hundred bucks for a consultation and have him ready for your phone call. You aren't commiting a sin, so just do it. Then, take the elders and friends you trust and tell them privately, "We are not going to let _anyone_ divide us, not even the society. If they break up this congregation, we must have a plan to stay in touch."

  They are gonna start shutting congregations down right and left because of what's coming. It is far, far bigger than has been revealed. They'll eventually start counter-suing elders for libel.

  Realize that they have a multi-million dollar legal budget and well trained legal JW puppets who will be happy to carve you up in court like a Christmas turkey. W hen this moment comes, the people who will save you will be the friends in the congregation who really do love you. Find out who they are now.

  You will find very quickly how much "Jehovah" loves you, at least through the WTBTS.

  It's late but I can't stop my brain...

  Power struggles like this happen all the time. If I was the President of the WTBTS right now, here's what I'd say to those key guys next to me:

  "Congregations are going to be split in half by this matter. Since we are in the wrong and we know how deep this goes and how many molestors are hidden in the org, the only way to perform damage control is to split the trouble congregations up. ANY congregation with a "problem elder" gets broken up immediately. We know how to do this because we do it all the time. The friends are then arranged into new, smaller congregations that can be controlled (PO, Sec. selected by us), and in the interim, we can disfellowship whomever we want with a minimum of trauma. After a month or so, the new congregation will be built with appropriately loyal core members.

  "The thing that makes this situation different is that we will have to shut down congregations located in rural areas, where there are not enough publishers to form new ones. In these cases, we are going to have to do something new: The Kingdom Hall will be closed.

  "We'll draft a letter in these cases that explaining why it is necessary to shut the hall down for a while. Such a letter will not be doubted by the rank and file if we move quickly enough. In an average hall of 100 pubs, we can break it up into small, managable groups of 10, with an appropriately loyal brother acting as direct liason to the Society, and then advising his home group. We may have to use less-experienced brothers, but they will be far more loyal than the old dogs anyway. Meetings will be held in the same format but at home like the bookstudy."

  This was always the reason for the bookstudy anyway--to provide a system of meetings that can go underground when the "tribulation" starts.

  If I'm in charge, I know the org is gonna take a huge hit. I know what's gonna go down. But, the majority of the members can still be kept with a few simple changes.

  I only write this out to give elders an idea of what's going to happen. If you are an elder, how will you respond? I guarantee that they _already_ know if you're loyal or not and they've _already_ got the pimply-faced MS who'll replace you. That's the beauty of the WTBTS: They've got the channel set up so that they can plug _any_ dumb schmoe in and have him be an elder.

  ...I should get some sleep.

  Goodboy.
