I'm with blondie on this one. We'll go and do the house over the hill and far away while you do this whole housing estate.
Brings back memories???

Do your elders care at all?
by Mr. Falcon ini currently have an elder body who, for the most part, seems utterly complacent and disinterested in actually "shepherding" anything.
i can't tell if they are lazy or just oblivious to their responsiblities of being "teachers".
it seems like they are the last to know anything and always procrastinate on everything.

I used to be on a body of elders with 12 others. It really annoyed me, looking around the table and seeing everyone looking down at their shoes, avoiding eye contact, when we were discussing people in need of help.
The only ones that offered added something like
" well I'd be happy to go along and see them, but........ I am preparing the special talk.....or pioneering this month.............. or already helping sister Smith ( who is a whole lot more interesting) so I havent really got the time.
In a nutshell............... hypocrites.

Am I the only one or do you dream that youre with the jubs? I'm either going on the service or to the meetings. I want to tell them that I'm not interested but no one listens.
I have similar dreams quite often. Should I see a doctor?????????

You seem to say
but my sister tells me I am not aloud to..
quite often. If your serious about going further with Jehovahs witnesses, then you'd better get used to hearing that. As Murray Smith said, many of us were JWs for 20,30, 40 years. We'll be happy to share our experiences with you, but then its your decision in the end, and everyone here will respect that.
Good luck ( oh, am I allowed to say that?)

I think that this is the first time in my life that I've spoken with EX Jdubs. Its really NOT that bad. I think they lied to me.

April 2011 Awake page 27: Abuse ignored because of misguide loyalty....
by NVR2L8 ini rarely look at any wt publications anymore, but under watching the world, april 2011 awake quotes a newspaper article that blames the covering of sexual abuse on the misguided loyalty to the absolute authority of the catholic church.
i couldn't help thinking of the many cases of child abuse amongst jws that have been swept under the rug for the exact same reason - the absolute authority of the fds!
they have no shame pointing their finger at others when in fact they are as bad...if not worse in mistreating the victims of abuse.

I've just heard of a child abuse case. The person wasnt disfellowshipped but they did have a "strong talk" at the assembly. Personally, I'd have prefered to atomise his body and disperse it to the four corners of the universe......................
but unfortunately, you haven't discovered that technology yet.
