Are Any Here Afraid of "Getting Caught" Doing Something "Wrong" By a JW?

by minimus in

jw
friends

do you still look over your shoulder to see if some jw might "report" you to the elders for doing something inappropriate by witness standards??

?

metaspy

I am afraid.
but I am afraid for the reason of not wanting confrontation.
So I may be a little cautious, but I still do what I want.

No worries snakes, I am happy to have what you could contribute!!

Thank you!

Field ministry blooper reel:

-did you ever stuff up your presentation while going door-to-door?.

i remember one beautiful summer day, me and my 'partner' were slowly approaching a man working in his garden.

it was warm, it was sunny, it was beautiful, it was peaceful and quiet - you might say it was "paradise".

I was at a door and the brother I was with said:
"Hi we've been going around to you and your BIBLE, talking about your NEIGHBORS."
The person just shut the door slowly with a confused look.
It took a couple seconds to realize why.

this morning i started this topic: http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/7/147355/1.ashx.

now i shall post the follow-up.. as i predicted, my mom would come with elders in tow to have a conversation.. actually, she threw me for a loop at first.

no elders with her.. she had them wait a half an hour then she let them in.. thus i couldn't reject the whole lot of them at the door, she was their way in.. secondly, she brought the elders from the nearby hall, not the ones who know me.. the whole time i thought she would go for someone who she knows can dominate my thinking, but instead she went with the unknown.. .

Well, they have a new school to go to in the upcoming year.
Probably more deception, more info on how to handle crap from people like me.

Junction Guy,
I did know that my mom would deny, but I figured the elders would know something.
nothing seems to touch them.
What is it called .... cognitive dissonance ?? [still shaking my head thinking about it]

A&W, I just need to reread all the facts.
I hurt my head to not be able to nail these guys down to any facts.
Many times elder #1 would say, "that was in the 70s, not now".
I wanted to call "bull****" but I couldn't without proof. I didn't actually let them see the CD.
I figured that would be instant DF for purchasing it, and I am trying to avoid that.

Now I shall post the follow-up.
As I predicted, my mom would come with elders in tow to have a conversation.
Actually, she threw me for a loop at first. No elders with her.
She had them wait a half an hour then she let them in.
Thus I couldn't reject the whole lot of them at the door, she was their way in.
Secondly, she brought the elders from the nearby hall, not the ones who know me.
the whole time I thought she would go for someone who she knows can dominate my thinking, but instead she went with the unknown.

So conversation with my mom went something like this (I kept silent mostly):
"You don't love Jehovah"
"You owe it to Jehovah to keep trying"
"I could have killed myself when you were younger, but I stayed alive to keep you in the truth"
"How do you think Jah feels about you leaving His organization?"
Somewhere in there she hit a cord that made me start crying (d**n). She knew she was winning.
Just after I cleared up my tears, in come the elders.

they now deny everything. EVERYTHING!
All evidence from Barbara's CD - never happened.
catch phrases of the elders: IF that is true... If that happened...
I even pointed to some of the most vilifying evidence I could bring out - elder response: you can't trust the world.
they went so far as to say that some of the evidence was forged.

Apparently today's talk was on loyalty. That fit in nicely.
also, elder #2 was the one to give it - coincidence? I think not.

After that mental beating, I need to go and refresh my memory of why I made the decision to leave in the first place.
I can't remember, too many mismatching facts...
