  Give your experience of hypocrytical elders, here`s mine!

  i will feel better once i get this off my chest, i don`t know whether it`s ok to mention the cong, but anyway, it`s hayes cong in middlesex.

  what happened, i stopped going to the meetings, and was trying to `fade`, but who should appear on my doorstep, 2 `busy` elder`s (who had nothing better to do, obviously!

  ) anyway, they said `oh sister, we miss you bla bla bla`, got the bible out, tried to make me feel guilty by reading some scripture`s out loud, brought tears to my eyes, etc.

  I remember working with an elders wife that wanted a new dress for the assembly so she said she was going to go home a give her husband a blow job for some money. Not too long after we had a talk given on oral sex and how wrong it was and guess who gave the talk? None other than the hypocritical elder. He acted like he was repulsed by the idea that someone would even think of engaging in such an act. This was just one of many hypocritical acts by this elder.

  After getting sucked into a few MLM's (we're slow learners) my husband and I had a light-bulb moment at an MLM conventions/seminar. We looked at each other and said that the JW's were nothing more than a MLM (without the monetary compensation). I think the eye-opening was set in motion from that point on. The Service Meeting on Thursday nights were nothing more than sales meetings. Definitely the beginning of the end for us.

  i wonder how many here have already posted on the old h20 hourglass outpost-board?

  it started to be a reform website and was one of the first sites i dared to register.

  took some time for me to see the truth.

So we signed up. It's a weird feeling. I've known the truth about "the truth" for about 10 years now, but it's still strange to go against the Society like that. The brainwashing goes sooooo deep.

  "I would really like to know more about these people. They have to be intelligent people to see their rights and not be bulldozed around by the WTS."

  I have know both Mike and Brenda for several years, as of about a year ago Mike was an elder (don't know the status right now) and they are the last ones on earth that I would have ever thought to sue the society. They were by the book all the way. And both are extremely intelligent.
