    I was an elder for 21 years and been on many JM and i well know if we dealt with a situation like yours in raising questions like you did,

    we were not equipped to defend or give you an intelligent answer but tell you that the brothers are imperfect and mistakes are made.

    A brainwashed mind such as elders are ( as i was also) will only defend the watchtower, that's his job to stay faithful to the GB

    and enforce their unscriptural rules. If any individual would continue to argue, we all know the consequences.

    I hope all will go well with you

    Thanks sspo,

    If they try to divert the meeting away from my questioning I will continually refocus it. I'm tired of my sincere questions being ignored.

    Excellent questions and research mavie. Please don't be surprised if they get swept under the rug by elders with their own agenda.

    Thanks changeling. At this point it's all about taking control of the meeting. No more rolling over and playing good dub.

    its going to come down to 'Do you believe that this is God's spirit directed organization?' or some such nonesensical bullshit question in response to your questions.

    Mavie,

    There should be a lifesize bronze statue of you somewhere. Please post the outcome of this meeting.

    His response! What to do now!!! I can't record it and I won't be allowed to see the private 'policy' outlining why!!! My everlasting life is at stake!!!!!

    Mavie:

    Thank you for getting back to us. We will meet you at 8:00 A.M. on Sunday December xxxx at the Kingdom Hall in (city name). As we told you earlier no tape-recording devices are allowed. That "policy" as you call it is not available for you to review.

    I'd ask why you cannot see the policy. Ask for a copy with non-related material blocked out so confidentiality can be preserved.
