You wouldn't think there is a link but there does seem to be. Check out this site.

It is no surprise that such twisted individuals appear in the 'truth' but I wouldn't say the prevalence of such ones is any greater in the WTS than in other christian belief systems.
They all fail miserably. You would however expect an organisation so regimented as the WTS to have the necessary safe guards in place so that the WTS would stick out from the rest.

Hey ISP,
Thanks for the click. Very interesting. I agree - the WTBTS probably has no more/no less of a pedophile problem than any other church. All churches are trying to figure out a solution. Imho, the WTBTS has taught it's followers that they don't have a problem - just a incident or so, very rare, promptly dealt with. Therein is the WTBTS sticky problem.
