the other evening a young person was reinstated and the jerk-water elder making the announcement went out of his way to remind "the friends" that applauding would not be proper.
what mind control, bunk, dribble, bull................ they are so loving aren't they?
i shoulda applauded anyway.
Dear Rem;
Thanks you so much for the post. But I have to ask you, what was the response when the friends did in fact applause? I would love to have to applauded the other night. And I agree we should not be dictated to from Brooklyn, but there are many who hold what they say as being "inspired".
P.S. Thanks again qwerty

Hi All;
And thanks again for all the wonderful posts. But my reason for beginning this post/thread was because the elder deliberately had to coach the "friends" not to applaud. Is this Borg protocol? He,(The Elder) is notorious for doing this. Plus he has no children. And the person was just a young teenager with the hormones running wild.
The whole thing just wreaks "the spirit of meaness" not love.

being from the new england area, where this c.o.
liked to kick ass, a few of my elder friends wanted to know whether anyone has heard of whatever happened to a circuit overseer by the name of terry angelacos.
had a reputation of really trying to get elders removed and then he'd gloat about it at the congregation meetings.
Yeah where is that rat?

when i began to study with jws, i deluded myself into believing i was pursuing truth, when i was pursuing a closer relationship with my dad.
i suppose keeping him happy by joining his new club didn't seem cool to me as a teenager, when i was meant to be rebelling from his authority.
but having had so little to share with him emotionally, or intellectually for most of my upbringing, this seemed too good an opportunity to pass up.
Hey ALT with 32 post since June, you must be hair alot
