    Non,

    Non sees little relevance to a jc at this point. Non is talking about the court of public opinion
    It is extremely unusual for someone to refer to themselves in the third person. Usually it indicates either arrogance to the extreme, or a multiple personality disorder.

    So, why do you do this? or maybe I should say - why does non do this?

    non,

    most of the more than six million jws throughout the world detest and abhor such practices.
    While I agree with you, your thoughts don't change the fact that the WTS has a unique policy on dealing with this subject that makes them a "pedophile paradise". Would you willingly take your kids to a babysitter known to molest children? If you knew of a pedophile in your cong, would you leave your child with him/her?

    Lets say there are six girls in the cong that accuse one man of molestation. There are not two witnesses to the crime, so nothing is done about it, in fact, the girls are warned to not say anymore about the matter and are told not to go to the police under threat of disfellowshipping. Would you entrust the care of your child to this man?

    The 'hovah idea that the WTS is God's channel is secondary even to the safety of kids. However, the idea of the WTS claiming to be God's channel clouds the judgement of some 'hovah parents, so they end up NOT doing the right thing. Turning in the perpetrator.

    ?h, Non doesn't like the use of "pedophile paradise" eh? Does non have a problem with "faith that can move mountains"?

    What is your problem with hyperbole? Society in general is intolerant of child abuse. If "the society", aka the borg, has been more tolerant than society-in-general, and has revictimised the victims, for a long period of time, then the organization is due to be called a pedophile's paradise.

    This isn't really hard for decent humans to get, Duns.

    In like manner, some will see Dateline and think that they do not want any Jws coming to dey door preaching the Christian good news. Others will recognize
    that while some Jws may participate in horrible acts like child molestation, most of the more than six million jws throughout the world detest and abhor
    such practices.

    Yeah, right, sure, exactly, yeah, OK, fine, yeah. . . they "detest and abhor such practices *so *much that they shun the victims of child rape, and those who report it, while Mr. Dick N. Yourdaughter is free to bee-bop down the walk and preach the good news of the kingdumb. That's just as Jehovah would have wanted it, isn't it? What kind of fool do you take me for. To quote a cliche, actions speak louder then words. When you stand up for a victim, you may garner some respect here, but since your seemingly happy with the pats on the back from pro-pederasts E.G. Mr. Mrs. GB sycophant, and prefer to do nothing but spit out hackyned retoric then, then, you can blow me.

    My take on Non's affection for third person usage:

    Non uses the third person to distance him/herself from the argument he/she is putting forth. They can hardly tolerate the argument themselves and find it so repugnant that they employ the third person as a means of removing themselves emotionally from the subject matter. The authentic personality can't truly accept the argument he/she is making so they fabricate another "self" who can say or do things that the authentic personality doesn't endorse. This allows the actual person to essentially walk away from the discussion without taking personal responsibility for it.

    That my two cents on "non".

    Non...why don't you answer some post? Don't you have an answer for all? Why don't you use that time to preach or do more upbuilding things than being on a page of apostates?

    non-

    are you satisfied then believing that most jws are not pedophiles? do you trust your children to play at another jws house not knowing whether or not that jw has in fact been turned into the elders for child molestation, but it hasnt come out because of a rule(two or more witnesses)? or perhaps that person has admitted their sin and repented, and now is in good standing in the congregation.....would you let your children play at his house knowing that he has admitted a "craving" for little girls, and has admitted molesting girls of all ages? the wt society admitted these are the policies, right there on dateline.....there was no twisting or "out of context" statements when it came to the societys stance on former molesters. they are clearly let back into the congregation (assuming theyve "repented", ick), and just not supposedly put in a position of authority.

    Oh when are thoust going to learn, oh morrisamb, not to respond to thee close-minded posters?
    [[Hey Non, the third-person posting is kinda fun!]]

    Thoust says, "some puny Dateline show. But even from a sociological and psychological viewpoint, it is very doubtful that dateline will have the effect you want it to. Look at the history of the Catholic church. It has committed atrocious acts for hundreds of years and with what result? It has more zealots today than it ever did. One day the Catholics might fall in this world. But it will not be because of some show like Dateline."

    Morrisamb thinketh a show in which a young woman talks about being raped is only puny in the eyes of 'non' beholder. Morrisamb also hath no desire to topple any religion, including Jehovah's Witnesses. He waneth sympathy for the victim, justice for the abuser, and ministers/elders (whatever) to stop making Inspector Cluesou (-pink panther) moves with life and death matters.
