I think my D.O. Is a closet apostate. References Stanford Prison Study and hints he sometimes disagrees with the Branch
by kneehighmiah ini find it odd that the district overseer today made.
1. zero yes 0 references to the fds in any of his talks.. 2.he also told elders that the brothers worship god and not them.so therefore the elders have no authority to order the friends around.. 3. he also talked about the stanford prison study and said that people who receive authority over others often abuse it.
4. he mentioned that when he disagrees with the branch (aka the fds) he's learned to just do what they say.

I have always promoted the idea of a secret handshake.
Human handshakes don't work unless the people are in close proximity, IRL.
Asking if someone is "a friend of Simon" can be done online or in person, and in cases of uncertainty can be explained away as "I thought someone said you had a friend named Simon" or some such.

"Haters of God and his people are to be hated, but this does not mean that we will take any opportunity of bringing physical hurt to them in a spirit of malice or spite...
Does that mean it's OK to hurt physically hurt people as long as it's not in a spirit of malice or spite?

Do Not Call lists wouldn't be a solution to this; it's probably a stay-at-home pioneer using a personal number, with others in the area doing the same thing.
My best guess is that complaining to the Public Utilities Commission (per state, if you are USA) and letting them work up some prohibitions. Individuals don't carry much weight with WT but government agencies do!

Testify to ritual humiliation in the judicial process
by rory-ks inthose judicial committee videos are remarkable viewing.
(part 1, part 2) they can leave one in no doubt about the humiliating way that jehovah's witnesses treat their men.
i urge you to get hold of a copy.

Ps 51:17 (NWT 2013) http://www.jw.org/en/publications/bible/nwt/books/psalms/51/#v19051017
The sacrifices pleasing to God are a broken spirit; A heart broken and crushed, O God, you will not reject.
The elders in one of my former congregations took this verse very seriously when convening a judicial committee. They wanted to see a broken person. They said so, in my house, in my living room, in my presence, to one of my relatives.
Notice that the verse says "heart," not psyche.
