"How much you wanna bet that one of those blathering idiot Elders™ fantasizes about your friend's wife and would love to have her hands on his dick?"
That's what I was thinking, some elder wants the wife!

Friend gets "scriptural divorce" over wifes transgressions before they got married...
by sosoconfused inso i have a friend in a congregation in new jersey who recently called me to tell me that he got a divorce.
nothing surprising there at first but it is the fact of when it happened.
his wife began pioneering april 1, and after about three weeks she came to him and told him that about 4 years she had engaged in loose conduct (fondling the penis and the guy kissing her breasts) during a time that she was inactive.

"I do know however that if a brother who is married goes to a strip club and pays for a lap dance it is considered adultery. This was told to us by our instructor at the week long elders school."
Soso, what about the question of if there was "penetration"? The elders always like to ask this in their committee meetings. It sounds like they are bluffing to keep the elders inline, that's just too much fun.

Heaven, your response blows me away at how confident and put together you were at an early age. If I could live life again, when my father told me that I would have to move out and be ostrasized by the family, I would have left, no questions asked. I was too cult-ized to think freely.
I have to agree with lisa's thoughts, this has been a topic of conversation between my wife and I as she is not an active witness anymore, she feels we should go somewhere. But I have seen so many young like Slimboyfat said, they have just learned to lead double lives (witness lingo), or behave around some in different ways. My mother-in-law started lecturing my daughter and it was like turning on a lightswitch that she couldn't talk or dress freely with gran.
Lisa, your description of identity diffusion and identity foreclosure describes several in my active witness family exactly.

MTS & Gilead: Can we talk about how much of a FAILURE these 2 schools were/are?
by Black Man ini know quite a few from both of these schools who basically crashed and burned once they got into their assignments.
graduates of these schools would be thrown into foreign territorities or remote areas without a good visible means of support and would get emotionally, mentally, financially burned out.
post your experiences or of those you know that went to these pitiful excuses for educational institutions..

I knew one MTS (Ministerial Training School) delegate that signed up and was called for the 6-7 week school(?) He lived in a small town with a small congregation, there were few jobs, most very low paying, but he had a postal job delivering mail making $25 an hour and this was years ago. He had to quit the job with the Postal Service to get the time off to attend the school. So after attending MTS the WTBTS "assigned" him back to his same congregation, but he also had the baggage of signing an oath that he would not marry for a number of years. He returned to his congregation and assumed all his previous roles in the congregation. He did not have a good job for a long time, (years) and his parents who were missionary returns serving where the need was great were fit to be tied about the fiasco created by WT.

Mic issues
by msconcerned inso on friday all day, the mic guy did a bang up job.....until david splane got to the podium.
it looked like he discussed how the mic should be set up for him, then finally when the mic guy was walking away david says " well im glad we got that settled".
then today same thing, he got the mic guy to readjust the mic for him again.

This is interesting, is the Mic boy the new whipping post of the GB? Another poster mentioned that Gerrit Loesch (GB) in Evansville, Indiana had fussed about the adjustment on his microphone. So now we will probably see other elders (heavies) think this is cute and humiliate the microphone guy. Go figure.
Quote:
"So, unexpectedly, the final talk was announced today and to my surprise and evil glee, they announced Gerrit Loesch as the speaker! First off, at the beginning of his talk, he interrupted himself in the middle of his sentence to scold the microphone brother to lower my mike it's right in my face."

Anyone else an Ex Bethel "volunteer"
by BackseatDevil ini was wondering if there were any other ex-bethelites on here.
i personally regularly went for temporary work at brooklyn then was assigned to the farm for a year and a half.
it was... one of the most bizaare experiences of my life.. so i wrote it all down (finally, after some 15 years) so i won't bore anyone on here with the details of the story - because bethel doesn't show up until chapter 15... and for you straight folks, it gets a bit gay in two places... but nothing gross.

Bethel Layoffs: Know anyone (especially long-timers) who were laid off?
by Black Man inand what are they doing now?.

I know of a single brother who went to Bethel (New York City) in 1968?/at eighteen years of age; he eventually served alongside the GB for years. He was a trusted person, bethel elder, giving talks in the French speaking congregations and assemblies. He was feeble or ill regularly, but he had been in Bethel for years and wanted to get married. About five years ago perhaps more, when in his mid to late fifty's he was asked to leave. I have spoken to him and he is trying tax preparation services, bookkeeping etc, and he named off about 15 different states that he had accounts with individuals. He mentioned that he just couldn't make any enough money to make ends meet. He is still single, his mother died and he is living in her old house. It is a pitiful situation, he has given so much to the WTBTS.
