Default Re: I AM SICK AND TIRED

"This is the most hectic and busiest part of my life, I am in my late twenties, I am seeing someone I actually care about and have a fantastic relationship with. We definitely see each other engaging and marrying in the near future. I would like to settle down, have kids, get a mortgage, and ACTUALLY SPEND TIME AND RAISE MY KIDS AS A PARENT AND NOT NEGLECT THEM FOR THE SAKE OF REPETITIVE AND MINDLESS MEETINGS".

The main reason I went out of the LC for finding a wife is because I just couldn't stand having my whole personal life revolving around the many symptoms and damaging factors of the LC. I was not interested in the possible courtship/arrangement at all, nothing persona I just did not care one bit. Can imagine having a wedding and thinking inside your head, "I could care less about this person I am putting a ring on". Sounds terrible, so I did everyone a favor and just took my dating life outside the LC since its a big no no inside the LC. Its fantastic having that part of your life outside the LC, you can breathe and not be suffocated the demands of the LC that are just repetitive, draining, and even lifeless sometimes."


I really enjoyed your honest and open venting! The reason the free-loading full-timers are pestering you is that they have "ministry goals" for you, like your attending more meetings, fellowship, etc. These are things they share in their leadership meetings that hope and pray that you will start doing. If you comply they can report success to their ministry superiors who can decide TO SPEND YOUR HARD-EARNED MONEY ON THEIR SALARIES! Think about it, you have no say in where your money donations go towards in the LSM/LC conglomerate, the brothers leading the full-timers decide who to support and for how long. So, it is important for the full-timers who have YOU as their ministry target to have some success in their religious goals for you to report. So, they tell you the things they want you to do because these are the things that they are praying for and telling their leaders these are their goals for you. If they can manipulate and guilt-trip you into performing they then have the success they need to report to their leaders making their case to CONTINUE FREE-LOADING AND LIVING ON THE WORKING SAINTS HARD EARNED INCOME. It's a religious scheme cloaked in spiritual sounding terms. They set your goals and pester you to meet them so they can report success and continue eating, meeting, and playing the guitar; all the while LIVING OFF THE HARD EARNED INCOME OF THE WORKING SAINTS.
