Boy oh boy there were times I would have turned on another that dilbrately attacked me friend or not. During my committee meeting back in 1987, one of the whisle blowers was an elder on my JC. He was pointing out that I had a drinking problem and was an alcholic and that at a company picnic that he and my ex husband worked for, this elder said I was drunk, I looked straight at him square between his eyes and told him, how dare you sit there and point the accusing finger at me and you are not any better in fact you were worse drunk than I . Well the presiding elder on the JC, just was dumbfounded and after getting his deportment back said we are not her to discuss this elder but you.
Now there was no way I was going to let that rest. Other times I was the object of gossip amongst the sisters in our hall, I knew what things they said about me, but I care less. I felt that someday you will all get your own some day. And it has happened that many who said nasty things about me are either barely holding one by a thread in the borg or some have left. And all three elders that were on my judical committee are all deleted. One for covering up the brutality of his elder son, who abused his wonderful grandma. The other for heavy drinking. and the other elder was removed to as he started drifting away from the truth a long time ago. He and his wife no longer go to the Kingdom hall. So what purpose would it have served to say anything, because I knew they would get there own some day.
Vengence is a dish best served cold. I don't have time to snitch on others, because I know they are already miserable themselves. People who have nothing nice to say about a person is in essense unhappy in there own lives. Thats why they want to know everything about everyone else in the hall.
My family doctor told me one day, Terry he said, " you have no idea how many JW are jealous of you, because you have guts to leave that religion and they don't for fear of reprecussions. On the part of the family or friends they have". I know a lot of dirty secrets but I never ever talked about it to anyone, when someone told me something I just kept it to myself. I knew things will work out someday. My ex husband was a shite disturber and thrived on the affairs of everyone in the Kingdom Hall. He use to tell me everything that went on in the congregation. So what I said, if you know something of a wrongdoing its your choice what you do, don't tell me because I don't want to know or care to know. Because to me I considered them as my friends and when I make friends its for life.
It seems that the ones who point the fingers at others are the losers as they end up being with no true friends at all. If I had a best friend who did something wrong I would beg them to tell on there own. Even if they hurt me and believe me I have been plenty hurt by so called best friends. and now they don' t have me as a friend because they turned out to be the loser. And I am free and liberated from that Organization WTBS
I hope I haven't offended anyone by my comments, it is just the way I feel.
