Are JWs attracting more and more off-center people?
by undercover inthis thread is prompted by the thread about a jw woman who disprupted a funeral.
i don't know the details as i can't view youtube from work, but it did get me to thinking.... over the last couple of decades, at least, i've noticed that more and more 'fringe personalities', for a lack of a better term, have infiltrated the ranks of the everyday jws.
true, jws are themselves a fringe element to normal society, but even within their own communities, there used to be a sense of normalcy, or at least seemed to be.. has the cultic message of the wt society started attracting people with different thought processes over this time period?

Bringing someone into the org. is seen as a status symbol. Much pressure is on elders, servants, pioneers & pubs to be able to boast about "bringing someone ito the troof". Any off-center dysfunctional person will do. I've seem several nut jobs fawned over because of this. Combine this with WTS teachings and it is a recipe for disaster.

I'm new here since your wife's ordeal, but it is wonderful news to hear she is doing good. Tell her to hang in there and this group here is great for support.

Borg court: 1st session
by sd-7 inrecord of committee meeting #1. after prayer, proverbs 28:13 was read: "he who is covering over his transgressions will not succeed, but he who is confessing and leaving them will be shown mercy.
" the need to confess to jehovah was emphasized.
as jehovah's representatives, the elders said we therefore needed to confess to them.

I'd turn it right back on them. Tell them, if none of them had pre-marital sex then DF. If they did have pre-marital sex, then show mercy and make it private reproof. Let their conscience condemn them. Either way it is rediculous that a young married couple have to put up with these perverts (which by the way none of them being their fathers), coming into their bedroom to discuss their sexual relations prior to their marriage.

Truth be known.....a JW probably started a rumor that some of the family didn't want the JW's there.
That was low class to play the DF card on Jedadiah at grandma'a funeral.

What They Tell a CO
by WalkTall indid it ever bother any of you that you and your family were talked about to the co during the elders meeting with him?
and for those who have been elders, my question is: how much do they tell him?
for some reason, it has always bothered me that this man, who is a complete stranger really, is informed of family or personal situations through the lense of elder's opinions.

It is unbelieveable how much like a business the JW's are than a religion. I didn't start moving up in my career until I left the JW's, but was amazed at how similar things were organized. My JW background probably actually helped me in this respect.
The CO is told all about everything. He first gets the skinny on all the elders, servants and pioneers. Then he finds out who has the money in the cong. Individual histories of pubs are told to him. People with money that don't do much will be a special target for him to try to "encourage" to reach out and become more involved. All the "problem children" are pointed out.
I probably did my share of "sucking up" to them when I was moving up the org. ladder, but one of my proudest moments was when I got to call a one-on-one meeting with a CO at the KH and chewed his ass out. I got the I'm a CO and you can't talk to me like that response. If he wouldn't have been such a pompous asshole.....he wouldn't have got talked to like that! I was done with it shortly after that.

When one honestly realizes that WT has replaced the Mosaic Law with the WT Law
Exactly......and that is the root of the modern day WTS problem!!!
