    Interesting point about not protecting against known pedophiles in the congregation. In the average pedophile's career they can molest/rape about 100 separate children. Talk about wolves among the lambs. 67% of all pedophiles are not strangers to the child but are family, family friends, neighbors, coaches, school teachers, scout leaders, etc., people with respected and trusted professions.

    I wonder what an "inactive" apostate is?

    JGNAT,

    facebook is a closed website which you can only only join if you are attending university or work in a related company.

    There is a large group for JWs, and myself, theinfamousone, and Lola28 all tagteam on there to back each other up and raise a lot of valid points.

    Usually, what happens is, someone pops up, goes a couple of rounds with one of us, then they disappear.

    Then someone chimes in that we, the XJWs, are correct, and then the process repeats itself.

    The process is rather slow, but I get several messages a day from people who are interested in knowing the truth.

    Are you saying, Richie, that the dear old brother from Georgetown was complaining about YOU??? Calling out the specific sites to avoid???

    You rascal, you.

    New peak of regular pioneers in the UK. WTS keen to get experiences from tract campaigns - asking elders to send them in ASAP.

    'Get experiences"? Gosh, the tract work was supposed to usher in the Great Tribulation by the end of December 2006......funny, it hasn't come around here yet. Anyone else experiencing the Great Tribulation in your area?

    As for them warning against pedophiles, MySpace and "active apostates", my guess is that their only real concern is for the latter. They've proven over and over that they don't give a rat's ass if a child is molested----their sole purpose of mentioning pedophiles in the same sentence as 'apostates' is to give the impression that anyone who disagrees with the Organization on doctrine can be viewed the same as some pig who likes to rape trusting children.

    Idiots.

    Isn't there some kind of "fallacy" to combine "active apostates" and "pedophiles" in the same sentence. Deliberately associating the two in their minds?

    Loading the Language

    Lifton explains the prolific use of "thought-terminating cliches," expressions or words that are designed to end the conversation or controversy. We are all familiar with the use of the cliches "capitalist" and "imperialist," as used by antiwar demonstrators in the 60's. Such cliches are easily memorized and readily expressed. They are called the "language of non-thought," since the discussion is terminated, not allowing further consideration.

    to combine "active apostates" and "pedophiles" in the same sentence.---- For the same reason I believe the Silentlambs brochure is a success even if the whole thing is not read. The font of it has the little lamb then the words "Jehovah Witnesses and pedophile paradise"? Just those words combined may stay in ones memory so if jw's come around the person will remember 'something' about jw's and pedophiles.
