This Story might be off topic little bit...Well, I know a brother who went out in field service 1 or 2 hours a month for many years. He did not fully realize that he needs to have more hours before he gets appointed as MS or Elder. He has never reached out to be MS or Elder but a new elder moved in his congregation and encouraged him to reach out by inviting him to field service regularly. He got appointed as MS and he is now an Elder.

Many JWs are chaste or virtuous homosexuals and "in good standing"
by Rufus T. Firefly in[it gets under my skin when people post that a jw was df'd for being homosexual.
if one ever was df'd simply for being homosexual, one would have ample grounds for a lawsuit.
the comments in brackets are mine.].
