I had a Morrissey CD with the song "Ouija Board",but, instead of ,throwing out the whole CD,I just recorded the Bible reading over that song,lol. I learned that trick from a sister I met in pioneer school. She's been out of the organization for several years now,or so I've heard. But,I appreciated the tip.

I wanted to add one example that illustrates this man's callous attitute towards the congregation. I was still quite young,but I felt bad for this particular older sister.
This jerk of an elder was arranging car groups on Saturday morning. If I remember correctly, it seems like almost the whole congregation was going out that morning. But,he sent this older pioneer sister off by herself. I mean she wasn't easy to deal with herself,but I remember feeling sorry for her. But,not sorry enough to work with her,lol. But,I was under 10 at the time,and I realized then,that he was being a jerk to her. I don't know if any adult took pity on her and rearranged their car group to include her or not.
But,that is only one example.

I won't mention his name. But,there was one obnoxious elder in the hall I grew up in,and I disliked him even as a little kid. He tried to put his own opinion on the rest of the congregation. He made up lists of off limit music groups and passed it around to the rest of the elder body.
He also was very judgmental and insulting. He was a grown man and yet he made fun of my brother for the weight problem he had when he was a young teengager. He insinutated to one sister her husband was probably cheating on her,since he traveled often for work. He made a statement from the platform that if your children are disfellowshipped,it's all your fault.
Most of the elders didn't like him either,he got deleted,but reappointed so many times. He was always involved in some shady business practice too. He started saling insurance without a license and got some other brothers in trouble for being involved in it too.
I honestly,can't stand the man,and he lives in another state now,and I think he is an elder again. I feel bad for that congregation. He had worn out his welcome at all the English speaking halls here,he eventually had to go to the Spanish congregations. And they didn't like him either.
If I ever run into him again,I will either turn around and walk the opposite way,or give him a good telling off.
And two of his daughters are disfellowshipped,but he probably doesn't think it was his fault. I feel sorry for them,for who they had as a father.

Do You Think You Would Be Terribly Missed If You Died?
by minimus inlately, i have noticed that many suddenly have died or as it is usually expressed, died "unexpectedly" in the local obituaries.. i have come to know of many young people suddenly deciding to kill themselves for whatever reasons.
most that i have known about had either financial or personal issues and sadly, they just gave up.. i wonder if we were suddenly gone, would people take notice?.....
(and don't worry about me.

My Uncle is Dying.
by LouBelle innearly a year ago my uncle was diagnosed with prostate cancer - he initially thought it was just a bladder infection and it took him passing out to go have more serious tests.
thus he received this news and shared it with us, his family.. the family rallied behind him and we all did everything we could to get him to his treatments, make sure he ate properly and supported him.
my cousins came out from the uk when it looked like he was going to die in a couple of days.

Facebook's gonna cause me drama
by LotusFlower1 ini know all about putting people in various categories so that they can't see certain things.
for instance, my clients cannot see certain photos (like from my bff's bachelorette party...hahhaha).
jw's cannot see my religious preference.
