Reverse scenario
by InquiryMan inin a small town in norway, a police officer was fined with an equivalent of some 1,500 dollars, or subsidiary three days of prison, for failing to bring forth to social service and other relevant authorities, information provided him by two elders from the local jehovah?s witnesses congregation of a df member having commited sexual abuse of his step daughters.
in this case, it was the police that failed, not the jw.
(i am not an jw apologist just for bringing this forth).

Did your responsibilities in the congregation prevent you from travelling?
by truthseeker inif you were a ministerial servant, or an elder, did your congregational responsibilities hurt your travel plans?
did you go to the meeting instead of going out with other witnesses for a vacation?.
did you say, "i'm taking out the group" or "i'm doing the sound" ?.

The Social Structure in the Congregation
by Mary inever notice how the "happiest people on earth" are also the most class-oriented?
to say that jesus said his followers should all be on equal footing, it's incredible how much the r&f witness is not on equal footing.
the social structure in the congregation is more complex than the blueprints of a nuclear warhead, but just so that you "remember your place", see if you can find where your niche was/is:

National Average = Quotas
by zack inthe national average for publishers reporting feild service time in the untited states is just under 10 hours a month.
this has become the de facto standard for every member of the congregation.
if one fails to produce at the rate of others, he is "weak", his service is "divided", he puts the things of "this life" in "first place.".
