it used to make me sick at these hypocrites.. they would be at the meeting the next day or out in field service, obviously still intoxicated from the night before but putting a show on before the congregation.

i knew a couple of girls who would be regulary doing this over a weekend yet they would be pioneers all week, answering up at the meetings yet would be heading into popular nightspots and coming home at 4am drunk.

their dad was an elder (surprise, surprise).. i remember telling an elder about this once.

do you guy know any witnesses that married for privilege?

for example the lowly male publisher married the c.o.t.b.o.e daughter and quickly move up the ranks.

another example is that the witness girl that only date or marries up( only dates m.s,elders,ex-bethelites,or pioneers ).. .

Reinstatement-Curent elders please reply

while being reinstated several months ago -- no restriction were given other than no commenting - service was allowed - getting over the average for the cong, not missing meetings - its been months now and the brother met recently with someof the jc members - they praised his hours and meeting attendance but because his lessons are not completely underlined, and he does make notes during the meeting, he has not been allowed to still make comments and become a fully active member of the congregation as they say this note taking is causing a problem with other members of the congregation.. have you even heard of anything so off the wall?

is this the way its done in most cong??

he thought if someone was interested enough to listen and make notes of a good point in their mags, it would be something to be referred to in the future... i know i have seen folks doing this while the lesson is being read.... .

I don't have the best relationship with my elders. I cussed my C.O.T.B.O.E out, so I won't be back for a while .lol. Any way my reputation trash in my hometown, so I won't be back anytime soon. I'm currently 70 miles any from my hometown, so I know it will be a fight to just get reinstated anyway.

	Alternatively the person is expected to show a bit of public humility ''So - attending the meetings for at least 6 months, sat at the back, nobody talking to you or even acknowledging you is NOT an act of humility? It certainly seems like a humiliation! Not that I ever have done it nor ever will.'' Yes that is showing humility in my book. My old C.O.T.B.O.E said that they don't even do six month disfellowshipments any more I'm gonna have to do 8 months to a year now. Plus I'm moved to another area to have fresh start ( the C.O.T.B.O.E told me to stay until I'm reinstated than move, but my ex-girlfriend was speading lies. So I had to leave, he said thatS part of your punishment ).
