Review: revised Elder's manual, part 4 (final part)
by neat blue dog inhere's the cruel, uncomfortable and dehumanizing description of transport for disfellowshipped ones:.
in cases of real need, the elders can determine wheth-er some assistance may be provided.
such assistance would be viewed as similar to public transportation in that there should be no conversing with the disfellowshipped or disassociated person.

Review: revised Elder's manual, part 3
by neat blue dog injudicial committees are famous for having 3 elders on board, but more can also be had:.
complex cases may warrant having four or even five experienced elders on the committee.. an interesting admission is the possibility of being harsh in judgment, and even insinuates that the elders would pay with their lives if the wrongly judged 'lost their spirituality':.
an individual unjustly dealt with may have difficulty maintaining his spirituality.-matt.

*sigh* The Extinction Rebellion ... middle class toss at its finest
by LoveUniHateExams inso, a bunch of eco-geeko middle class people are desperately trying to be au courant, bringing london to a standstill in order to 'save the planet'.. apparently, there's even a crèche, with entertainers entertaining the protesters' well-nourished and pampered offspring.
i guess many of the protesters - sorry, saviours of planet earth - couldn't get a nanny to look after little benedict and olivia.. today is the fourth day in a row this crap has been going on.. hopefully there will be more arrests in the coming hours and days.
