The worst thing that can happen to a boy with this type of responsibity is while it goes to his head, he begins to think that the obvious next step is for him to become an elder. The elders will probably give him public talks and bookstudy duties. After a few years of being a servant, people will start asking him why he is not an elder, and suddenly the monster has been created.

43NEARLY 17 YEAR OLD BOY IS MINISTERIAL SERVANT
by minimus inthings must be getting pretty desperate.
i just heard some wonderful news of another boy being appointed a ministerial servant.
the comment was that even though he is young, he is very mature.another person, speaking of a different boy being appointed said that he had the added advantage of being home schooled and that really helped him to mature.

by D wiltshire in.
jw's will become more immoral after exposer of...gb on pedophile issue by dateline and bbc's panarama.. the reason being that many will reason if the gb can get themselves in trouble heck!

Am I correct to understand that the gb will be exposed for actual immorality that they themselves have committed or are you suggesting that they are ultimately responsible when someone else does wrongdoing??

We need a little controversy !
by lucidentity init is always interesting to note the blasphemy and the be-littling of higher powers.
how dare you all question god?
how dare you all think that with your puny little brains you have conquered the mysteries and understandings of life?

Whati means to be JW
by Dawn ini couldn't resist - some people are so pompous!
!- just had to post this message that i read on another board.....um....complete with my additions shown in red.
