Joseph Rutherford and Burlesque
by Amazing in
1. jw
2. friends
no one really expects 'perfection' of their fellow humans, even of those in high station.

our past president, bill clinton certainly demonstrated that men in high station can and do give into acts that are not accepted by the public at large.

likewise, i doubt anyone expects that joseph rutherford would be perfect, but we would expect that as a human, he had his ways.. what about "true" spiritual leaders?

deceptive jw elders case#4c .

[the following is a little over 4 pages, but it is worth the read and it gets better as you get to the end.].

while i personally experienced several more acts where jw elders lied to me personally, the following is the most serious because it involved brother a. i mentioned him earlier where he was lied to by the jc and they used a confidential file against him that they developed over ten years a file he was never allowed to see or defend himself against.. sometime between january 1993, the jw elders on the jc were in the final stages of their meeting with brother a. this was before his first appeal.
