    Vidiot:

    Chickens have ruthless pecking orders... Guess which animals the WTS heirarchy - by its by actions or words - assigns more value to?

    I'm crying foul.

    mother cluckers !

    Committee Helpers "Nethanim"

    I thought that was done away with? No need for helpers since now all is covered with the overlapping generations.

    I thought the Nethanim, Nethenim, however it is spelled, was the non-anointed committee members

    Saphy: the elder's wife should be POTENTIALLY ranked near the convention overseer. she thinks.

    I was an inactive with a disfellowshipped mate, so slightly above apostate, but lower than whale poop in the Marianas trench in the eyes of the elders. The good thing is that I didn't have far to fall to reach my ultimate destination, Apostate. It made for an easy transition. Being an underachieving worked for me.

    I noticed I automatically got more respect and was taken more seriously when I became a married sister. I never expected to be viewed any differently so it was telling to see how low I had been earlier...
