I guess many elders feel really powerful and maybe that position becomes a substitute for a normal career with a rewarding job. To be a chosen sheperd for God's people must be a hypnotising experience.

Loyalty Questions in Judicial Hearings
by 00DAD ini've seen several posts on various threads about a particular "loyalty question" or two that elders ask during judicial hearings.
granted it's been several years since i was an elder, but i never heard of this practice.
is there anything officially in print on this from the wt?

00DAD, they asked me: do you view yourself as a jw and do you accept the fds. Those two questions were asked several times in different ways. I said I liked many of the articles, but some other articles presented lifethreatning procedures. Then I read WT 1967 about organtransplant. I actually managed to get the original english version in print. They were amazed and could not answer if that article was inspired by Jehovah.
Wow 40-60 JC, any of those you regret?

May I suggest any health education. Best investment I ever made. Of course, Armageddon would come long before I would graduate. So, I was very afraid and had to drink a lot of beers. Best part; Big A never came, I graduated and have been authorised and working for 4 years now. Even managed to replace all the beer with rooibos tea from south Africa. In your face WTS...:)

Congrat Irondork!
You will feel 25 years old againg, for sure!
Also, some healthtips: Loose some weight, train 3-4 times a week 20-30 minutes (slow start - not to hurt your body), 2-3 spoons olive oil each day, 2-3 cups rooibos tea each evening and you will be popular among the girls again!

Thanks Chariklo
"You see, different people take things differently. I read Healthworker's posts and see an bright, interesting and lively mind. I haven't once seen him slag off anyone."
Think that is right on Chariklo! Here we go an throw the perfect new years party and then the participants either zip to milk, rooibos tea, isolate themselves at the restrooom or get all wasted! It's time to brighten up brothers! Cheers!
Kate82 : pls dont be sad. Some of the posters here are just lonely and bitter. But I know they are getting better! Wish you all the best Kate!

Kraut!
"you must have confused them with your reasoning"
I think they bought into a lot of the reasoning and therefore they had to take a step back and evaluate the situation. Anyways, I think it was a good atmosphare without any sarcasm and name calling.
Thanks for your support, my friend!
