  Another "good" elder might be getting the axe....

  by humblepotato in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  so our congregation is full of hardliner elders, 3 of them, who are not gentle, kind or loving.. people have either moved away or quit trying because one elder inparticular was going to drive them crazy with all his rules and nit picking and being righteous over much.

  (and he is pissed that he hasn't been accepted to the school.

  hmmm, i wonder why!).

  They remove this guy as an elder and wonder why their workload increases.

  i just dropped my daughter off to her mum at her parents house.

  it was 12pm and i knew they meet for feild service there but my ex and i assumed they would still be out knocking on doors.

  i pull up in the street and there's quite a few cars parked up and the house was backed with jdubs from my old congregation.

  Good for you!

  The Jws expect you to feel act shameful as you've done some terrible deed.

  Why are you even considering these people as your friends?

  Before the dinner one of them probably mentioned to a jw they were going for dinner with you. The jw probably said you are bad association because you did this or that.

  Enjoy the company of your wife and forget about these people.

  The sister in the video is not good marriage material. She looks like a middle class entitled white girl.

  She did the first guy a favour by dumping him. She is probably high maintainence.

  A jw friend of mine(now ex jw) was married to a needy bitch like that. He couldn't win. She would complain about him not earning enough and when he would pick up some jobs on the side complain that he was neglecting her and not doing enough "spiritually"

  letter sent today to the ministry of justice... .

  spain bethel sent a letter recently last oct 3 interpreting that no elder or sm should request a certificate of sexual offenses as other churches or persons in contact with kids.

  again jw.org interprets the law to their behalf.. a group of elders in madrid has sent this letter to ask clarification !!.

  I am just wondering if I went on a salary for the money that I make in a year if I could get away with working less hours.

  I have been averageing 20 hours per week overtime paid to me at 1 and 1/2 times regular pay. When I work stat holidays I get paid for the day plus 1 1/2 pay which works out to double time and half.

  Plus I get paid for February 29th every 4 years.

  If I was to convert to salary it would have to make up for the extras I do somehow.
