Moral Dilemma

by Mattieu in

excuse me so called holy spirit directed governing body; what do you do when you discover that a long term hospital liaison committee elder who gives talks at all1 day assemblies, 2 day assemblies & district assemblies and is quite prominent n the victorian/nsw circuit, is addicted to pornography, particularly under age and bestiality porno?

and oh, if you have print outs of his internet log ins and internet history fully detailing his log ins from his work computer???

and im not talking breach of privacy, im talking his breach of work usage of computers, of which im in charge of the it.

Blondie, Mattieu claims he has done his job by reporting this to his superiors and that no laws have been broken that would require the authorities to be involved.

Matthieu, I hope you are not working under a confidentiality agreement. If you are, you could be terminated for cause (Calling the WBTS) any this hypocrite could be reprimanded (in private) and deny any wrongdoing if the congregation was to investigate. In additon the company and you could be liable if this information was to cause any "harm" to this Elder.

If you stir the pot, you may make his life hell, but you have nothing to gain and much to lose.

Mattieu,

Please do not take this statement as anything but objective, but the moment you spoke to anyone outside of the workplace concerning this matter, you failed to keep it "professional". You may want to think about yourself and your career and let this go. The rumor mill spins both ways and it would be a drag if you were ever labeled as being an individual that can not keep matters confidential within the workplace. I would fire my IT guy if anything within my server or office was ever transmitted to someone not authorized to receive the information.

Mattieu,

It sounds like there may be a little personal vendetta here. If you are in the IT field you should know what you can legally do and not do. If he is breaking the law contact the authorities. If he is not, why not move on with your life? Be aware that if you stir the pot about a guy looking at legal porn you may create a headache you do not need to be involved with. If it is your job to report him to his superiors, do so, if not, be a professional and keep your mouth shut. (Admittedly turning him in would be fun)

If there is real evidence of child porn, there should be no "moral dilemma", contact the authorities and let them investigate.

BOE LTR Dec 26, 2010 "Increased Activity April 2011"....Transcript....

by yknot in

in an effort to increase the praise and honor to jehovah and jesus christ at the time of the memorial, the governing body has arranged for a special period of increased activity during april 2011.

you will be pleased to learn that during april 2011, publishers who wish to serve as auxiliary pioneers may indicate on the application whether they will be working toward a 30-hour or 50-hour requirement for the month.

this is a special arrangement for the month of april 2011 only.

Great!

Now my Dad, who should be looking for a job full-time, will probably start to auxilary pioneer if it is reduced to 30 hours.

What percentage would leave the WT ORG if they weren't ostracized

by bobld in

jw
friends

i would say approx.20-25%.50-60% stay because they like the friendship and don't really do much in preaching just placing mags.the remaining ones don't know any better, they are totally brainwashed.well at least they have a clean brain but good for nothing.. b. .

treadnh2o

The number would not be very high. If the ostracizing were eliminated people would not be forced to make a declaration concerning their beliefs and just live their life. It would be very much like any other Christian religion and not like the High Contriol group that it is.

"Maybe they could get that crazy, - maybe. But wouldn't that run the risk of practically calling every annointed one a potential (even a likely) apostate?"

If they did it in a "Satan is sneaky" kind of way, but not making a big deal about it, it would work.

It would also keep the number from going up too much as everyone would think twice before drinking the wine.

I really believe this will blamed on apostates. By claiming secret apostates are distorting the number of partakers, it explains the increase in addition to firing up the troops.

Vacation at the In-laws

by treadnh2o in

haven't posted in a while but i guess it's time for me to vent and you guys to be entertained.. i am spending a week at my in-laws, this is the first time i have seen them since i quit being a jw and told my wife that she could accept being in a "divided household", quit being a jw herself or get divorced.

needless to say she stayed and they think i am jerk.. sohere is the highlight of the visit:.

i went to the grocery store with my 22 year old brother in law ( who is currently df'd for the second time, claims he wants to be a jw but he has a favorite on his computer that said "f**kbuddies.com/ a dating website or something to that effect and spent a night in jail in the past week) we get back from the store and his father starts chewing out another brother in law for having an an open alcohol container in the vehicle (he never went with us).

moshe,

My wife is actually really cool. She was stunned however, that I brought religion up. My kids, who go to meetings with mom actually recognized the moron married to my mother in law and sided with me.

Undercover,

I have been married for almost 20 years and know the "bite your tongue" drill.

I just couldn't resist the "false religion" comment.

It was also the first opportunity for me to make my position clear to them concerning the JW's.

Also, the general consesus is my MIL's husband is a super-righteous moron. Which is cool. Anything for my kids to see the truth about the "truth".
