    DB: That awkward feeling that all eyes are upon you and the comments about how much your parts are missed will go away soon enough... I say AMEN to that! It has been a couple of months, I know and I hope they'll forget about me.

    I'll bet you feel as if a giant weight as been lifted!! - Words can’t express how I feel…two words: TOTAL BLISS! I’m a free man.

    As for the elder's school 411. I still have the letter with the references to the articles and books that the WT is requesting to study in preparation for the school. I haven’t even bothered to look them up to have a feel of what they’ll be discussing. I’ll share that info with the board shortly. The school I was “invited” is going to be held in the belly of the monster and some of the instructors are well known District Overseers in the USA-Spanish field.

    P.S….I’m aware that I might be giving a little too much information about myself, but I’m like a Kamikaze right now…

    I have a theory or two about the brother that had to wait seven years to be re-appointed:

    - He got into some kind of judicial trouble (from what I've been told 5 years for re-appointment)

    - He cheated on his wife, remarried another yet his wife remained unmarried for some time.

    - He swindled some people in a business deal, and took a long time for people to forget about that.

    - Or some other standard immorality misconduct.

    - He pissed off another powerful elder in the congregation and had to wait for him to die/move away.

    - His kids caused trouble, had to step aside, kids stayed at home "rebellious" for several years.

    Strength and hope to you, Blondie. You were missed this past weekend. I am glad you found the strength and time to get your WT Comments out.

    4, 5. (a) Baptized men are urged to reach out for

    what privileges in the congregation? (b) How does

    one reach out?

    I would love to have raised my hand and said: "Baptized men are urged to become independent agents in the congregation, totally following orders and advice from MOTHER, but not being backed up by MOTHER should that advice go wrong. Before they reach out, they better transfer all their belongings to their wife's name or to a trust fund. That will make it harder for abuse victims to sue them as elder and get their belongings liquidated. "

    Thanks Blondie!

    The most basic problem with this article is that Writing isn't addressing the real purpose of elders and ministerial servants. These "appointed men" are serving neither the sheep nor the shepherd. They serve the organization. It revolves around having the elders use "Christ-like authority" to direct the 'publishers' to do what they are supposed to do... for the benefit of the organization.
