Presented for your perusal, horror, and edification. I take no responsibility for these statements--they are the verbatim comments of people that I know. I find my wife's comment heartening, since it implies that she knows that elders are not necessarily spirit-directed. The others... I'm not so sure.
My wife:
"It just totally shows you have to be careful with your children and actually ignore titles."
A completely inactive but still totally believing Witness friend:
"Perhaps he left Jehovah and this is what he did with his free will. This guy just proves the point that the once saved always saved is bs. People are imperfect and all the CO has to go on for appointments is the limited contact he has with the appointee and the word of the cong elders. You don't want to allow yourself to be stumbled because of others."
An active Witness ministerial servant in a Spanish congregation:
"What a sap. 'Would you like to read the latest mags or maybe pics of your kid's naked butt?' You can never tell what lurks in the secret parts of peoples minds. Strange, caustic things a-brewin'."
