how could the show of love and support given by these worldly people even compare with the World Headquarters of Whitney's own faith, the "true Christian brotherhood"? Surely, you would expect the billion-dollar Watchtower and Bible Tract Society to easily surpass the love shown by the local community. What witness did Watchtower give? Our writer answers, "The Society got involved and had the circuit and district overseers come and serve Clint’s congregation this week – the district overseer also gave the private memorial talk on Saturday." Watchtower redirected the schedules of their local circuit and district overseers.
You just can't compare the love of Watchtower with the love of the "worldly" community, can you! The "worldly" community cares so much more!
That's the WTS in a nutshell. They don't care! They don't care about individuals. They don't care about congregations. They don't care about communities. They care about their bottom line, and how their volunteers continue to contribute to make their monthly goals.
Dollars to donuts, they're probably more concerned over the loss of field service hours during this ordeal than they are about the tragedy.
I've seen it happen. During a CO's visit one year, the turn out to mid-week service numbers was in the tank. Only a few hardliners showed up. The CO questioned the elders. The elders explained that a trial for the murderer of a local witness was happening and that a lot of the congregation members were in attendance. The CO's response? Those JWs need to be in service, not at a trial. They can't help the dead JW, but they can help living worldly people come into the 'truth'.
