So god can provide chairs, but cant stop typhoons?
The very idea that they are promoting this as God's direction is so hypocritical!

How are midweek CLAM meetings solid spiritual food in ANY way?
by Isambard Crater inbesides the possibility that the theocratic ministry school was dropped to avoid the word 'school' appearing any longer for a.r.c child abuse reasons, the introduction of the new clam meetings for midweek has been one of the several main factors making me develop a repulsion for the jw.org religion.. okay, the watchtower study is fairly mickey mouse these days too, but the midweek meetings are truly awful and contribute to me feeling physically and emotionally ill, which i documented in my first post on here.. i'm quite a well-educated person and my job involves a lot of linguistic skill, thinking, communication, analysis, research, interpretation and presentation.
the clam workbook is patronising and like something even school kids would tire of.. after a long day at work, i don't like the idea of dragging myself off to a midweek meeting in the cold dark nights let alone any other time of the year, but it'd be far better if it was for more solid spiritual food.
somehow the meetings i grew up with as a child were more interesting.

Redpilltwice, I agree!
I said to my wife that purely out of curiosity, I would love to sit through one of these meetings! It would surely confirm that we did the right thing by leaving!

"Isnt it disgusting! The judgemental, bigoted, hateful self-righteous pratt of a witness"
But after all, ToMo3 did help to make such attitudes acceptable to witnesses!
Was that person at the door wearing Tight Pants by any chance??

Hmmm...Amazingly clear now for all of us isn't it!
But when we were fully in, we all put the "spiritual food" provided from the society on the SAME level as the bible! In fact, often, the societies words would come BEFORE the bible!
But, its not a cult of course!

by doubtfull1799 in"what man among you with 100 sheep, on losing one of them, will not leave the 99 behind in the wilderness and go after the lost one until he finds it?
" - luke 15:4. disclaimer: by posting the following observations i am not complaining.
i am happy to be left alone.

Yep, I understand what you mean doubtful!
No matter what you ever did for the society, congregation or individuals, you are seeing that it was all CONDITIONAL on you being an active witness.
It matters not about the parables Jesus gave, if the culture the GB has created and fostered overrides that.
I can just see witnesses saying something like "why bring Jesus into this discussion?!"

Great comments menrov!
Also, I can't believe that they mentioned Malawi! Seriously? The hypocrisy of events surrounding Malawi and Mexico should have moved them to keep quite!
Why dont witnesses know about the times the society curried favour with political groups??
Also, HOW is this a "personal" letter from bro so and so and sis faithful , when they have BEEN TOLD to write it by the GB?
