Vidiot:
I actually stopped short when I read that again, trying to figure out justhow they were a drain.
They are a monetary drain as well as a"spiritual" drain. Winos (love that term btw) take up space at the Kingdom Hall, they are assigned to a field service group and they use up elders and ministerial servants precious time.
These cultural jehovahs witnesses usually are the ones that don't report field service on timeand don't show up for theocratic ministry school assignments. Sometimes they are subject to judicial investigation. This contributes to elder and ministerial servant burnout.
