We had a CO’s wife that believed every sister, especially on Sundays should wear a hat. She and her husband were like a Father’s Know Best TV show or Ozzie and Harriet. He would have his Dick Tracy hat on and the wife would have hers on and they would criticize anyone that didn’t follow their example. They were odd but I actually got a kick out of them.

49What Were You or Someone You Knew Counseled For That Was Ridiculous?
by minimus inback in the day, tons of witnesses were brought in the “back room “ to be counseled by elders because of their dress and grooming.
some elders frowned on mustaches or hair that went past a certain point on a male.
women were regularly harassed because their skirt was too long or too short or had a slit on the side.

What Is Truth?
by minimus injust because you believe something as truth, it doesn’t make it truth.
religious leaders may be admired and believed but they could be dead wrong.
politicians can spout out “facts” that support their truth yet once further evidence comes through these facts are questionable.

A person can repeat a lie that they believe to be truth. It doesn’t take away from the fact that if something clearly isn’t true whether you believed it to be trustworthy or not, it’s still not truth. Otwo, like when Hillary Clinton told everyone she lost the election because of Russian interference and that Putin had dirt on Trump. Even if she truly believed it, if it’s not true “ what difference does it make “???

Remembering Rutherford

rutherford died at beth sarim on january 8, 1942, at the age of 72.

Back in the day, tons of Witnesses were brought in the “back room “ to be counseled by elders because of their dress and grooming. Some elders frowned on mustaches or hair that went past a certain point on a male. Women were regularly harassed because their skirt was too long or too short or had a slit on the side.
That’s just to name a few things. What were you counseled over that in reality was ridiculous??

Dis, in CONTEXT, my comments to Farkel meant this: Farkel verbally beat up anyone who couldn’t “prove” what they were alleging. If I said , elders were told by Circuit Overseers that such and such a thing was policy, he would say PROVE IT! If it was a conversation between you and the CO and it was not provable, he would dismiss your statement as not being verifiable or possibly truthful. So I gave him back his own medicine. Like I said, I believed everything he suggested there.
