This article deserved so many many many more votes and comments. What an insight it gives Us, even if we may have wanted to say many of the things that were said before the committee, because it reveals the total lack of ability on the part of appointed men to even consider the arguments put forward. They are definitely blind guides, and that comes from the influence at the top. What great congratulations for making the interview available to the rest of us, who now realise that we cannot reason with these men. We must therefore be more cunning than… Read more »

I won’t say it is a pointless debate. It is a debate to highlight 1. No matter how civil and cautious you try to leave on good terms, it will not happen. One gets to be painted as evil, bad and one to be avoided. I don’t think my disassociation letter last up till a month when gossip and rumours about me was that, I left as a result of sexual immorality or embezzlement of congregation funds. The embezzlement of public fund was a huge laughter considering I notified the body of elders a month before dropping the position and… Read more »

Its a long winded, pointless debate, as from the very start these people are not interested in the subject, or even understand it.

They show they neither understand the bible or the person they are accusing, of what ever the charge is, apostasy, heresy, walking on the cracks in the pavement. The loyalty to the organization count is amusing, as it reaches quite a high number.… Read more »

With the wt fanatical desire for documents does this mean I didnt exist? so with that in mind why would i bother to write any letter of resignation?

Oh my goodness I’m at 53:40 mark where the accused says he diligently starting studying the bible as this property conflict became an eye-opener and to this the elder says, “So you’re not happy with us, then”. Ok. If this were a real judicial system this comment would be so out of line a lawyer would flip out! Pretty sure a judge would have thrown it out too. This young man is being fed words to produce his own lynch. “Happy with US.” If the elder were truly concerned for this young man, he should have said, “Why yes, I… Read more »
