add that the generals and colonels and sargeants
I can't for legal reasons there is no chain of command that?s why things are like they are. The Watchtower knows if it had a chain of command they could be sued when elders act up. So anything resembling one they dismantled. Every thing is passed by word of mouth mostly. THose that ask for things in writing are considered pest.
After all, it's the elders, etc. who enforce Watchtower doctrine on the R&F. So, why aren't they being held accountable wrongfully disfellowship?
I have no Idea, but it probably has to do with inertia. There is little quality control for the elder body. If an elder reads at a 3rd grade level nobody is going to tell him to step down because he may not be sharp enough to competently take care of the congregation. In a lot of halls that is the case. Many elders barely understand what they are reading, and because the watchtower style is less than straight forward calamity ensues. I was at a hall where the "smart" professional elders (all minorities) were forced to move because of too many catfights with the "good ole boys". It got to a point of publicly dissecting their families before the meetings. Stuff like "isn?t your skirt too short to be an elders wife?" or ?that sweater is a little tight don't you think?. Not in private but before the meetings. The truck drivers won out and the IQ of the hall dropped to room temperature.
I don't mind "wrongful" disfellowshiping as much as the "wrongful" reinstatement is what really bugs me. Some people are back in the thick of it almost instantly disfellowshipings become temporary vacations of hedonism, and others can't get back unless they move. I am sure you know the cases in which people "leave the truth" in reality they planed on coming back the whole time and just felt like having fun.
