Yes, giggler smiley: smile...according to Their rules.

But, according to my rules...and according to real legal rules...I don't have follow Their rules.

What most people don't realize is that the WTBS judicial rules are not in accordance with the rules of real law.
I was fully prepared to duke it out with the elder in a real court of law...not their kangaroo/monkey court.


This reminds me of an incident that happened to me a few years back.

I was working front desk in a hotel that had a dining room that was frequented by the local JW's. One of their favorite times to come to the hotel was on Sunday. They would show up in their 'Christian' attire...the ladies in their frumpy dresses and the men in their suits and white shirts and ties. On this particular occasion, I had been reading the newspaper and it was laying on the counter beside the till. The front page had an article about the judges in our legal system asking for a raise.

One of the JW men took a look at the article, and the headline had something to the effect of "Queen's Bench Judges Ask For $40,000 raise"...or something like that...I can't remember the exact figure. Well, this JW dude said this (very sarcastically and with much derision) "Ha! I don't know why they think they are worth so much. They aren't anything special. Who do they think they are? Heh! I could easily do that job!"

Well....I almost bit my tongue off when I heard that....and my head almost exploded with the effort of not saying anything. There he stood, with nothing more than a high school education (if that), his fat stomach stretching out his white shirt, and a stupid dumb, sarcastic look on his face...being derogatory to a profession that required years and years of education and experience to even be considered for the position of 'judge'. I thought of all the lawyers and judges I knew, the knowledge they had, the commitment they had, the hard, hard work they did...and this little fat piece of s**t standing in front of me thought that he could do their job? 

Unbelievable....just f***ing unbelievable.

So...no...I will NEVER abide by the WTBS rules. Their rules don't apply to me. I reject that kind of stupidity.
