@Phizzy - So true . . . "and even those guys will stab you in the back" I was "friends" with more than one witness who was viewed as a lesser one because of the level they achieved in activity etc. In the case of some it was simply the level of smarts that they had which made them be looked down on by the higher ups in the congo. And we must remember that one reason men become elders is because they have more ability, not more spirituality. It means that elders and thier wives and families will normally be in the higher echelons of a congo. Anyway to the point I want to make is that there were times that the fact that I befriended some of these ones they would talk to me about feeling belittled and minimized to which I would listen and try to be understanding. But then when I found myself in this situation and talked to them I was basically shunned.
Sad to say that MOST, not all are basically messed up excuses for humans by this cult.
