right now, the number of ex- elders (either resigned, pushed out or df'd) outnumber the present elders; what does this suggest to you?
.
How many Elders are successful outside the religion? Not many.
It would be difficult to give up such recognition if it would lower your position among your peers.
I have noticed most ex-elders are generally more succesful in all aspects of life. This is why stepping down is no big deal and getting reappointed is not a priority.
This is also the reason many elders have issues with their social skills.

For the lushes out there!
And me
smoked.
got drunk.
taken drugs (non medicinal).
Yes Actually gave a Public Talk after 6 shots of Vodka ( 4 o'clock meeting, didnt go so well ,just said I was jacked on cold medicine)
After I mentally left got "coked up" for a Circut assembly. Just said I was on anti-anxiety medicine that wasn't sitting well with me.
Now that I am out, reality is great... Don't need the escape from that wacked out cult.
did you pretend to listen?
did you actually follow along, listening intently?.
at the end i was listening more intently and getting more irritated by the whole sham..
Isn't obvious... this religion makes people crazy!
haven't seen him post for ages...he loved it here!.
I heard he is working with Bonafide.....
at our 2 day circuit assembly this weekend they made an announcement for those interested in attending the ministerial training school to meet with the do & co at 9:20 behind the stage this morning.
they said that there is a new revised age requirement, and it is 62 or older.
he again clarified 62 or older, single, and a ministerial servant or an elder.. do you think they feel they've put enough young brothers through the school and now they want old retired individuals who they can send anywhere?
Garlic,
I know who you are!
I am telling your elders on you, you wicked apostate!
Confess to them or else.....
i noted from a previouse post many based it on spelling.. i hope this forum accepts new posters on more than that.
how is one accepted on this forum?.
accolytes.. .
...it depends on how you answer the question concerning homosexual tendencies.
ok, i'm sure i am not the first one to be in this predicament but it sure is a headache, my jw ex called a few days ago, apparently she has met someone (they're not dating of course!
) and she wants to me to hand over the golden ticket.
she wants confirmation either in writing or verbally to a third party, that she is "scripturally free" to remarry.. i have managed for years now to avoid any judicial action and my jw family members still associate with me, but that all could come to a screeching halt if i give her what she wants.. the only bright side is she totally robbed me on the divorce; if she gets married i am at least off the hook for "spousal maintenance", that would mean potentially thousands of dollars in my pocket.... .
Just "take the money and run!"
just asking out of curiosity... i always heard about it through the wbts publications so i assume what they were saying wasn't exactly like the real thing.
i remember how it was supposed to be a perfect place to work and everything was supposed to be in harmony with each others.
i even dreamed of going to that place, when i was young.
A friend of mine (girl), described it as a big building with NO WINDOWS that a bunch of creepy gay young guys go in and out of.
Having been there many times, I completely agree with that description.
