in your experience, did you ever see congregation being revolved around clan-like, all-influential families?.
i don't know about your experiences, but in my personal experience and basically wherever i went i've seen congregation being influenced by mini dynasties of elitist jw.
in fact their influence goes far beyond of what you'd normally consider "spirituality" and branches down to some absolutely bizarre issues such as what type of car you should drive, what brand of clothing is "christian", what sort of barbeque is appropriate, even what cereal you should not buy since it supports "babylon the great", etc.

of course i wouldnt want to encourage speculation, but when i was involved in the jws there was sometimes talk of what would or wouldn't be in/acceptable in 'the new system'.
i heard some happifying comments like there wont be any electric guitars or transport, and we wont be wearing clothes but we'll still have seasons
hmmmmmm....i wonder how the elders will assign dino poop duty?....i would love to be there for that special needs part at a meeting...

*** job 1:4-5 ***
4 and his sons went and held a banquet at the house of each one on his own day; and they sent and invited their three sisters to eat and drink with them.
5 and it would occur that when the banquet days had gone round the circuit, job would send and sanctify them; and he got up early in the morning and offered up burnt sacrifices according to the number of all of them; for, said job, ?maybe my sons have sinned and have cursed god in their heart.?
i'm sure that if u approached an elder with that scripture, they'd find some crazed way to explain around it.
<----me asking elder about scripture <-----elder thinking <-----still thinking
"Er...ummm....yes...well...if you take the greek translation for banquet, turn it around and translate that into hebrew...ahhh..uhhh...it means...dog...Yes. Yes....and ummmm...when Job said his own day, he actually meant ahhhhh........durrrrrrr...ummmm........HOW DARE YOU QUESTION THE SOCIETY!!! I''M CALLING A COMMITTEE MEETING RIGHT NOW!!!!
at least that's been my experience.

i remember one congregation that my sister went to that i visited a lot when i was younger. there is one family that takes up about 75% of the kh....we're talking the grandparents, their kids, the kids kids, aunts, uncles, cousins....the list goes on and on. and let me tell you. they milked it for all it was worth. i remember this one brat that i hung out with (why, i'll never know) and when the younger people had get togethers, she'd run around bossing everybody, saying what food we should serve, who can hang out with who, and what music is appropriate or whatever. the appropriate music was usually her FAVORITE music which sucked ass!!!! and all the kids actually listened to her and she wasn't but like 17!!!!!!!!! they would go out of their way to kiss her rear and make sure she was happy. as did everyone in the kh to that family. so yes i DEFINITELY believe that there's an elitist system in the congos.

well, the kh that i'm going to are all my old ones, and i pretty much know how to 007 it around the parking lot. but thanks for the heads up diamond! and i know that a lot of ya'll think that it might be pointless, but my big thing for doing it is b/c i KNOW the people that go to these congos and what complete morons and hypocrites they are. and i also know that the elders would be COMPLETELY p.o'ed to come out of their kh and find the parking lot full of EVIL MANIACAL DEMONIC APOSTATE LITERATURE. <---elders looking at apostate literature....MWAH-HA-HAAAA!!!!!
sorry....i still hold a few grudges....
it would probably just push the corn cobs that are already in their asses up further...

well folks, you may recall that i was invited to my sister and her husband's gilead going-away bonanza last saturday.
elders would be there.
my world would be rocked from it's stable position of "inactive"!
they served BEER at the party??? wow...in my old cong. they wouldn't even get drinks at a restaurant after a meeting...
