:So what's the deal? Is this another double standard or what?
Yes.
:Where is the truth
It's not in the WTS. This is a great example, too. The rules that apply to them are different from the rules that apply to their members.
Many GB members and other higher-up WTS leaders don't engage in field service, yet they put in print that the "spirit directed" information from "Jehovah" is that the average dub's (WTS's grunt) life is in major jeopardy if they don't engage in field service.
Ten hours a month or more was the "Jehovah-directed" quota when I lived in dub-Land. (I think that policy has changed in print, but not in actual practice. When the CO pays a visit, 10 hour or less dubs are in deep poo-poo if they want to advance.)
It's as simple as pie. The word for it is "hypocrite." Jesus had much to say about those kinds of people. In this case, he was right.
