Reinstatement-Curent elders please reply
by truthlover inwhile being reinstated several months ago -- no restriction were given other than no commenting - service was allowed - getting over the average for the cong, not missing meetings - its been months now and the brother met recently with someof the jc members - they praised his hours and meeting attendance but because his lessons are not completely underlined, and he does make notes during the meeting, he has not been allowed to still make comments and become a fully active member of the congregation as they say this note taking is causing a problem with other members of the congregation.. have you even heard of anything so off the wall?
is this the way its done in most cong??
he thought if someone was interested enough to listen and make notes of a good point in their mags, it would be something to be referred to in the future... i know i have seen folks doing this while the lesson is being read.... .

hotspur Alternatively the person is expected to show a bit of public humility
''So - attending the meetings for at least 6 months, sat at the back, nobody talking to you or even acknowledging you is NOT an act of humility? It certainly seems like a humiliation! Not that I ever have done it nor ever will.''
Yes that is showing humility in my book. My old C.O.T.B.O.E said that they don't even do six month disfellowshipments any more I'm gonna have to do 8 months to a year now. Plus I'm moved to another area to have fresh start ( the C.O.T.B.O.E told me to stay until I'm reinstated than move, but my ex-girlfriend was speading lies. So I had to leave, he said thatS part of your punishment ).

Do you know people who did this just to move up in J.W land or to have prestige for themselfs?

How many JW's are doing bad things each year worthy of being DF'd?
by dissed infor a religious group that claims to be above reproach, with a self proclaimed, excellent reputation for godliness, i don't feel that claim is quite true.. in fact, i think its a sham to make those assertions.
they trully should not feel they are different from any organized group, when it comes to its members following righteous standards.
true, the wt would like all to believe they are clean and morally straight, that they are different and not tainted from the world.

As a Witness - What did you Notice in How Elders Got Appointed ?
by flipper ini found it amazing being raised in the witnesses to see exactly who got appointed sometimes as an elder.
it seemed that the criteria in my opinion had more to do with getting 10 hours a month in field service, answering at meetings, carrying microphones as a ministerial servant, or handling the magazine or literature counter !
in doing these " functions " and attending meetings on a regular basis - a man was thought to be considered " spiritually strong " and qualify to be an elder and serve on judicial committees judging people's personal problems.

There should be rules to where you can't be an elder or ministerial servant; and have close family that are the same rank in the same congregations.It can create favoritism and a conflect of insterest.
