Does anyone remember a circuit overseer named Brother Bender. He and his wife were the most arrogant and insensitive I ever experienced. Just wondering others' impression of him. Is he still a C.O.?

Disfellowship article-Make them squirm
by good2bgone inthe august km disfellowshipping article will be discussed the weeks of aug 19 & 26. i'm thinking of explaining the shunning policy to a reporter or some friends.
they could go to the meeting that night and explain before the meeting that they are interested in listening and learning what jw's believe and see how they treat others.
would it make the elders squirm when the article is discussed?

The August KM disfellowshipping article will be discussed the weeks of Aug 19 & 26. I'm thinking of explaining the shunning policy to a reporter or some friends. They could go to the meeting that night and explain before the meeting that they are interested in listening and learning what JW's believe and see how they treat others. Would it make the elders squirm when the article is discussed? Would they be worried as to what the outsider is thinking? It bothers me that they are having a Watchtower-like Q & A at the Service Meeting on this topic. They didn't publish it in the Watchtower because they didn't want outsiders knowing their medival shunning practices. So, why not expose it to at least a few. I think some of my friends would find it very enlightening. The reporter might be shocked by the shunning process. He or she might then want to interview ones who have been shunned and do a story. Any other ideas?

this is my first post, but I have been lurking on
this site for a while. Love it!My reason for posting has to do with the Dateline/child abuse
issue that is going on.My congregation, (which I have not gone to for over a year Yeah!)
used to send the territory guy down to the police station and
request a list of all the convicted sex offenders in the area. They
would then write on the back of the territory cards, something to
the effect of: "adult should call on this house" with the
address. They did this for the whole city/county.
Is this a local policy or was it a directive from the WTS?In light of everything that is going on, it seems to be a bit self-serving. (This also happens to be the same congregation that does
have a child molester, who does go to peoples doors, unaccompanied,
unmonitered, in car groups with people who are unaware of his past.)
You Watchtower Hypocrites!!Just curious if any one else's hall did this?
