  Chuck Waller, Southern Cali and Arizona DO, nice older man, had kids and grandkids and therefore much more reasonable and approachable, didn't come off as too much of a company man, humble.

  Random Thought: Was Prince in good standing in the Org?

  by HereIgo in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i find it hard to believe that the flamboyant grooming, earrings and heels would grant him positive status in the congregation.

  it definitely wouldn't fly in my old cong in arizona.

  he would been pulled in the b room rather fast.

  Watchtower view on hunting and fishing?

  by HereIgo in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i grew up doing both.

  while i was in the org, i didn't hear too much about fishing, but all of the co's frowned upon hunting.

  their stance was jw's should not own a gun.

  @stillin that's funny...you would think Jesus would want Christians to give, guess that society doesn't see it that way.

  Bro Murikami (spelling?), AZ Circuit 2004ish, very humble man, Bro David Schroeder, humble, but a real company man. D. Allen Phegley, pompous, arrogant, and all about money. Always bragged about his millionaire friends. During pioneer school, I handed him a $20 he snatched it out of my hand and looked up waiting for the next donation like he was a celebrity, excellent speaker though.

  i know there are tons of need greaters that have blogs and websites, but are there any official special full time servants (like bethelites, co's etc.

  ) with a web presence (i.e.

  facebook, twitter, instagram, blogs, etc.)?

  As far as I know there are no official "rules" against social media, but then again I have been out for 6 years now. I have seen plenty of elders on facebook. But like all true ex witnesses know, there are plenty of unwritten rules or activities that are frowned upon, surely this is one of them. I doubt any of the big shots, like CO's, DO's, and Bethelites are on social media and if so, very few...
