I have a friend that hasn't been to a meeting in over a year. She recently got a divorce from her abusive JW spouse. He beat her up and tore down a door in front of several people.
Now this jerk, whose name is Mike and lives in Las Vegas (I don't live there), decides that he wants to date but he can't because he's not scriptually free to marry. So he has started stirring up a bunch of crap trying to get his ex-wife in trouble with the elders. He is also spreading rumors that I gave my friend apostate literature (not true) and has gotten me shunned by some family members. I hate this guy.
Last week, the elders came to the door while she was in the shower. Her young son answered the door. He told them she couldn't come to the door. They pushed past the boy and forced there way inside!!! They told him that it was urgent that they speak to her and told him to go get his mother.
My friend comes out of the shower, wrapped in a towel and peers over the balcony and sees two elders standing in her foyer. She told them this wasn't a good time, that she had company coming and to please leave. They said - "but it's urgent we speak to you." She said "too bad, I don't have time, please leave". So they left.
First of all, I can not believe these guys forced their way into her house like that, I would have called the cops. Is this normal procedure for elders?
Secondly, her number is listed, why didn't they just call and try to schedule an appointment with her?
Thirdly, she had Christmas decorations up - is that a disfellowshipping offense?
Warning to all Las Vegas JW women - Stay away from this guy. He is an abuser, is lousy in bed and has a very small penis. His ex once complained that it was ridiculous that they were only having sex once every 2 weeks, his response was "I'm not a machine". They were newlyweds! He also can't keep a job and will expect you to bring home the bacon. If you see him, run away. You have been warned.
