One co I know worked wages for about 15 years before he was a co. He had a pension plan. The branch made him sign his pension over to them when he became a co.

Whatever Happened to the Remnant?
by snugglebunny inback in the 50's, when i was just a skinny kid, my father became po of a new congregation.
he'd only been baptised for around 4 years, so his rise was quite remarkable.just one of his flock in the new cachement area was of the "remnant".
this lady was well into her 60's, childless but married.

The whole two-class distinction was a creation of Rutherford.
Rutherfraud couldn't grow his business religion anymore so he had to change the rules. -

Agree with all the posters. All of the comparisons with brother that does so more than you and how come you're not a ministerial servant yet take their toll.
A Jehovah's Witness life is a hard life.

In my old congregation one of the elders daughters was living with her boyfriend for at least a year No disfellowshipping or reproof. Kinda sounds like a common occurrence. -

Desperate times move some to desperate measures. I definitely don't agree with this guy poisoning the elders wife and kid with round up but maybe it will make other elders think of the possible consequences when the disfellowship someone.
It looks like this guy went over the edge when he got dfd.

Shunned or actually...not treated much differently?!
by Ohiamfree inso today on my way to work, i passed a faithful jw sister who i have met about 6 times and spoken to and was friends with a sister she spends a lot of time with, i looked at her and smiled and she looked through me.
i wondered if she knew to shun me.
i'm dating someone when i have no photographic evidence that i am free to remarry ;) let's ignore all forms of abuse and unfaithfulness...anyway!.

A lot of people just don't fit in with the Jws. Myself and mrs hoser certainly don't.
Ohiamfree, you think too much and only allow yourself to be treated with dignity. That is why they are puzzled by your actions.
A funny thing happened to me the other day. I was at the hardware store buying a gallon of paint and a "brother" from my old hall was there. He totally ignored me as if I didn't exist. There must be some wild rumors going about that I'm bad association or maybe I've been marked and haven't found out about it yet.
The probabable reason he shunned me is because I have started to respect myself and Jws can't handle that.

Demoted from elder to MS, anybody ever heard of this?
by Naoscillator inso a friend in a nearby hall told me their co came through, and in a hellish week of long meetings and inquisition overhauled the boe.
only one remains as elder, three were re-appointed as ms, and one, the cobe was deleted entirely.. two new elders were brought in as new secretary and cobe / watchtower conductor, respectively, and introduced to the congregation from the platform on sunday immediately following his second talk.
he reminded everybody of the authority he has and then named the new appointees.

This CO has a reputation that precedes him. A take no prisoners, hatchet-wielding badass who doesn't care whose feelings he steps on. In other words, the ideal WT company man.
thats why I m not an elder or ms. I've got no use for abusive dickheads like that.
