  Who would you have Lunch With? From JWN?

  the last few years "warren buffet.

  " has donated his time to the highest bidder for charity.

  the ebay auction usually goes for $100,000 to spend lunch-time and pick his brain on his view.

  Does the society assign circuit overseers based on their personalities?

  by hoser in

  the reason i am asking is that lately i've noticed a trend.

  we get a real good down to earth guy who is easy to work with and we get used to his way.

  of doing things and then 3 years later we get a self righteous abusive a$$hole that thinks he is above all.

  That could be a motivation. Then again, perhaps around 50% of C.Os are just assholes.

  too funny but true

  MM what purpose does it serve?

  keep everyone on egg shells?

  I've actually heard a$$hole CO's say "it doesn't matter what the last guy did or allowed I'm in charge now" or to that effect

  one other CO said " it doesn't matter what the CO asks you to do Jehovah demands obedience"

  another 3 years we get another easy going CO

  Is this done on purpose by the WTS to keep all the congregations on edge and the elder bodies in check??

  any one else have experienced this

  i'm not sure where this topic belongs.

  the adult & heated debate category, maybe, or jokes & humour.

  guess we'll see.

  Long Call With Elder: Doesn't Know About "Generations/Overlapping"

  by daringhart13 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i had a call with a good buddy......still an elder the other night.. when i mentioned generations/overlapping.......he had no clue what i was talking about.

  such a good man.......... but it doesn't matter.....they don't even realize what is being said to them; what is being done to them.

  a high stature elder in their organization....and he had no clue there was another change..... how the hell does this happen?.

  Has there been a change on how JW's view those that have drifted away?

  by lonestar63 in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  i wonder if an article in the wt came out telling them to reach out to those that have drifted away.

  i suspect the defection has been great in the last few years, and they're trying to bring some back.

  i've told my story here, how i was able to succesfully fade away along with my family, without being df'd.
