You need to be able to ogle the wet t-shirt contest without 12000 people noticing. Seriously. That's it. I was on more then one committee to pick the baptizers and that was the only requirement. We had extensive tests using elder's wives as guinea pigs.

ALl of these demon/ghost/spider/leprechaun/dragon/Vishnu/Jesus/alien/Monkey Emperor and Care Bear visitations can be explained in a 10 paragraph wiki article.
You're welcome. Now stop believing in nonsense.

Love all the comments in that link. Dozens of posts of people attempting to reason with Cedars while the pocketbook Napolean rants and raves and threatends to kick people out. This is the face of the organization? I'm sure the Watchtower is shaking in it's boots. Oh the hilarity...

My Final Goodbye
by Lady Lee ini want to start by saying i will not participate in discussion here about my resignation as a moderator at jwn.. simon please consider this as my resignation from that position.. i have been posting on this board for almost 12 years.
i know some of you a lot, others a little and some not very well at all.
i have remained here for those of you who have needed support as you make the transition out of the wts, who needed someone to listen to your experiences of abuse at the hands of jehovah's witnesses, and to both laugh and cry with you as you progress out of the watchtower society.. we know that we have all experienced the cruelty of abuse of one kind or another.

Do you have an actual question? Or are we just cutting and pasting sentences.
Adding to this as you edited your post.
If you read Lady Lee's letter carefully, she does a great job of disparaging the site as well as the people remaining here while giving the appearance of being very polite and loving. If this is accidental then she is some type of emotional Rain Man however I think it is fairly obvious she felt slighted and felt the need to pick her side absolutely.
I think it's amazing that Simon even had to tell Lady Lee that her locking a thread at the request of Cedars would be terrible optics. This type of behaviour does not speak well of the professionalism of the "board" over at WAWA or whatever they're calling themselves these days.
When informed of her conflict of interest, instead of apologizing, she posts a long letter to the forum about quitting before even speaking to SImon. This would be the equivalent of quitting your job at work by leaving everyone in the company a voicemail before even telling Management. I've dealt with similar types of issues at work before, and it is always a way of "control" by the person exiting.
If these are the "executives" over at AWAH, the Watchtower has nothing to fear.

I've finally found someone who's belief of self-importance rivals Cedars.

I'm not even fully convinced that "Cedars" is not a massive hoax persona. He reminds me very much of a poster called YouKnow back in the day on this forum. Different content, but the style of arrogance and sheer disbelief that everyone wouldn't immediately line up behind them was the same

I think this may be the nicest poison-pen letter disguised as a good-bye that I have ever read.

James: Cears is fairly good at identifying bad press when it's been pointed out to him several dozen times. You will probably see the "bird" pictures disappear shortly

THanks for the warm welcome Tylin. Id' like to respond to your rebuttals but as they are mostly nonsense I will pass.
Simon: Absolutely correct and it took me some time to figure this out after I had left. "But why oh why doesn't the world media care that my aunt isn't talking to me anymore???"

I've run into Cedars in the past and none of this surprises me at all. Creating secret guerilla style groups to oppose the Watchtower is useless for a variety of reasons.
Much in the same way Witnesses eventually are stunned when they discover that not only does the "world" not fear them, but typically pays no attention to them at all; in much the same way the Watchtower takes little to no notice of us. It may make you feel good to think that the Watchtower is cowering in some secret War Room and coming up with strategies on how to oppose Cedars Facebook team, but it's simply not happening.
Secondly, the average JW has been conditioned to fear apostates for most of their lives, what makes you think that developing some Apostate Super Friends is going to be any different? This is exactly what they have been warned against for their entire lives.. an organized Apostate "organization" trying to destroy their faith. In my opinion (and experience) the best way for people to leave is by doing their own research online and coming to terms with the truth on their own before they are ready to participate.
