Yoke Kindly? Load Light?
by WTWizard inwell, this is your "light load".
you are expected to waste 70 or more hours a month on field circus, working the same streets repeatedly.
doing this never even successfully reduces what's left to be done.

YES. i had only been attending meetings a few mos. and all i could sit there and think was the heavy loads they were imposing on the members and they were no different than the pharisees. many things like this continued to haunt me.

ProdigalSon --- to love those who are against us/hate us is so difficult, and it's hard to have faith that they will be won over.
Love you post and it is encouraging.

maybe we should all pitch in and purchase billboards to WARN THE PUBLIC AND THE POOR WITNESSES! we could start in the major cities. have copies of this evil empire's books been sent to the police depts. around the US. i guess they're hands are tied because of religion's precious rights.
MAKES ME SICK, TOO.

someone in the "know" told me yrs. ago how witnesses do this (they are notorious for this) to gain privileges and power in the congregation they need TIME for field service, bla bla and many were on state aid so they didn't have to work. they would claim they had mental problems and anxiety (they weren't but learned the system) and had to be medicated and couldn't work. OMIGAWD. they figured out the game w/handouts to not have to work and gain power. UNREAL.
no one, of course, turned them in because after all they were doing the lord's work (the clergy class in congregations need pioneers, etc.) and who cares if one rips off the evil gov't and the hard-working fools paying their way that aren't witnesses, anyway, --- and paying taxes for these lazy bums. makes me sick. some of them learn how to rip social security off by faking deafness or other major disabilities. IT'S UNBELIEVABLE how they use the system.
i think they should be held accountable and forced to work if they want to eat.

Did you ever do something for this religion that now makes you shudder ?
by man in black inback in the early 80's right after i was married the main driving point i kept hearing at the meetings was "do more,,, pioneer ".. well being the young impressionable jw couple that we were, .
my wife is a speech therapist, so working pt was no problem, but i ended up working construction, cleaning carpets, and shoveling snow at all hours with the brothers, and i worked like a d*** fool at all hours.. funny how there was so much support for me to work with the witnesses, but once the decision was made work could be very iffy at times.. and the main thing that just causes me to cringe now is how so many of the witnesses in charge of the congregation thought that we did not need insurance, my wife had a policy with her school district, but my son and i did not.
granted medical expenses were not as bad then, but just the idea of thinking that we did not need it that god would watch over us just embarasses me to no end now.

YES --- unfortunately! i didn't toast when out in society (high society) because of the low society rules!!! ALSO, since i'm connected w/a BIG HITTER LAW FIRM (dude, i don't work) and heard more horror stories from the followers of what's not happen'n (the witnesses) because they wanted free legal, etc., etc. --- omigawd!!! i could have written a book the first 30 days of attending meetings.
COME AND GET ME CROOKLYN! LIKE I FEEL THREATENED!!! I'D love to get my money back from the non-collection box, ANYWAY!!! CATCH ME IF YA CAN --- i've reversed everything. LIKE MY LEGAL BOY TOLD ME --- i've got bigger guns. they couldn't hurt me when i left (more reasons that one) and I HAVE NO BROOD INSIDE.
