  As an additional aside, in my former congregation even the carts themselves are dropped off and picked up by ms or elders on behalf of those manning them.... congregation not involved my ass

  Observations from an Ex-Elder Part 1

  by doubtfull1799 in

  i was thinking about the fog model this morning, particularly about the "obligation" part.

  my mind went back to the last elders school i went to.

  one of the parts in the section on appointments was discussing how we should not place too high a bar (human standards) for brothers to try and jump over when we are considering them for appointment as a ministerial servant.

  Agreed that is a terrible mix of traits. I was actually secretary when i stepped down myself.

  I had long realized that I, as secretary, got beat up for people not turning time in... i never asked people to make time up, i just averaged there previous months for them, with the exception of pioneers.

  In the end its a honor system reporting mechanism and i encouraged people to play fast and loose. Nobody ever cared as long as the CO was happy and then it was six months before anyone cared again.

  It was then and is now a travashamockery.

  I saw the same thing, time after time. Didnt matter how good a man was as a person, only the 3x5 card and its numbers mattered. By the time i woke up i was flat out telling brothers to lie and that ni one cared. Some were uncomfortable with that thought so i changed it to 'be generous and creative with time reporting'

  i swear no longer elder is the thing i am happiest about

  COs are like parrots, can’t handle questions of dynamic nature!

  when i was a zealous publisher, once i took co for a return visit to learn how he handles difficult questions.

  house holder brought the subject of joshua secretly sending two spies to spy out the city of jericho before its planned conquest, and asked: “wasn’t joshua acting in a human way here?

  why would joshua need to send spies if he was the commander-in-chief appointed by god the almighty?”.

  There are a hundred unknown people in the so called mesiahs geneology. Why would one more or less matter?

  To "A Believer" and other JW's that lurk or participate.

  you think that coming to this site or other anti-jw sites and showing you support for the org is noble.

  knowing how brainwashed you are makes me cringe and disgustes me and i am sure others here on the forum.

  becasue your in a cult and can't see it.

  What joe said is 100% spot on. Some here are easily trolled and wound up by the dubbies.... take a breath and see it fir what it is: they already know the real truth deep down, they simply havnt accepted it in their minds yet.

  Talk about click bait....

  no one in that awful organization is "employed" to do anything.

  they do not have "phone banks" anywhere, even if individual witnesses use their phones to spread their cult

  by using the words "employ" and "work " together you imply a relationship you absolutely know dosent exist in this context.

  You use the term "preteen" along with "work" and "employ" to further the 'click bait' nature of your post by implying underage sweatshop labor, perhaps even trying to draw some vauge reference or connection to abuse by including the religious knowing full well the charged atmosphere that surrounds children and religion.

  As much as i hate the cult sensational and flatly untrue statments, like those made by the tittle of your post, do far more harm than good. There is more than enough to hang the cult on without resorting to untruth.

  come on a believer, everyone knows it was you so own up to it and teacher will not be cross!.

  this is exactly what seems to be happening, a believer runs in drops the stink bomb and runs out again...only to pear around the door when he/she deems it safe to do so.

  😅😅😅.

  Lolol oh believer..... you may not "be here" as much as you to be but the real truth is in you now. Havnt you ever wondered why the organization is so insistant that you not speak to apostates...? The org knows that once you have even considered the possiblity that every word they isnt true the game is up.

  Your already on your way out. Maybe it takes a few months maybe a few years but your already done.
