Have you ever tried explaining judicial committee to a non-witness?

    What outsiders will find very strange is that they go by a secret book (with unknown to the public rules) when they judge people. Nobody knows how exactly they reach their decisions and no explanations are given.

    In addition they don't give a toss for people having emotional problems when they have to be judged. Some suicides could result.

    It's because the cannot relate to the witnesses, 'cos they don't have the same structures in place. I mean when I tell people about committee cases, disfellowshiping & the lies they have told, they just cannot grasp it and think it's just a matter of snapping your fingers and you can leave. they also don't understand the huge relief once you are out.

    I've never been jw, but even with all my research and reading so many stories, I still can't comprehend it sometimes. And when I read posts where someone has been out for such a long time, family doesn't talk to them anyway, why be upset by getting the letter? I have such a hard time even trying to explain jw's at all much less get into the judicial stuff! People think I am making stuff up!! Even family. Until they see something in the newspaper or hear somone else tell some kind of jw experience. Luckily my parents read C of C book and some jw book from the library. And most in the family are now starting to see the changes in husband. sad. carla
