you think it's the holy spirit that appoints the elders, at least that's what new jw males are told.
the culture within the organization dictates to all young male jehovah's witnesses that unless you are an elder, you will not get the sultry, passionate- brunette, the voluptuous, curvaceous,- blond, or the seductive, erotic, red headed-vamp..
so unaware of the social forces that are shaping your mind, you succumb to the dictum issued by the governing body to conform to the structure already in place- if you want to be successful.
I was an ms years ago. I stepped down because basically the PO was bullying me. I didn't recognize it at the time though.
Ive been asked twice since then to be an ms but turned them down both times.
Now I really don't attend that regularly and don't do much field service so they don't ask anymore.
pixel, cappytan, and wifibandit present for your consideration:.

i guess the branch isn't happy with the amount being sent each month since we are way lower than our loan amount.

I'm glad I can see through the bs and am only a marginal member.
I don't subsidize millionaires(billionaires). They don't need any more of my hard earned money so they can live in a mansion by the lake.

there was a booklet that exposed the errors, deceptions and misquotes in the trinity brochure.
i think it was called something like "why should you believe 'should you believe the trinity'" or something like that lol.
it went through the society's brochure page by page, quote by quote and gave full sources etc.. does anyone know if it's still available, preferably an online copy?.

The sad thing is that 6 years ago I would have laughed at this too
i went and listened to the circuit overseer talk last night.
he started off by saying how many jws are in prisons in other countries and how we need to be prepared for when we are persecuted by the governments because it will happen "soon".
near the end of the talk he got into how our own minds often imagine the very worst case scenario and that this isn't good.
There's got to be some term for this: one who creates a bad situation, then offers to "fix" it. I don't know what it is, but WT is very good at it.

WTF? He started off the talk to get us to imagine the worst case then ended it by saying not to.
I really should record this stuff it's unbelievable.

what were your thoughts of this rehashed drama from a few conventions ago?
The basic message is that if you marry someone that is not baptized your marriage will be miserable and fall apart but if you marry an elder/pioneer you will be happy and successful.
