WORLDWIDE LETTER MAILED

    On or about June 30, 2002, thousands of Jehovah's Witness elders around the world received a letter from "The Worldwide
    Christian Community" urging them fully to take on their voluntary responsibility as "shepherds of the flock of God"
    with respect to child molestation that occurs among their "flock." The letter urges them to exercise Godly "goodness"
    as opposed to Pharisaic "righteousness" by dealing appropriately with child molesters, rather than following the
    policies of the Watchtower Society which, in practice, require two eye-witnesses to an act of molestation before elders
    are allowed to "remove the wicked man" from their midst.

    See the following link for the text of this letter.

    Thanks for that Randy. It was an excellent letter. BTW, who is responsible for writing and sending it? SilentLambs or was it a collaborative effort?

    WOW!

    Great letter, I loved the reference to the Titanic. To illustrate, when the Titanic was sinking some of the stewards tried to stop the third class passengers from escaping via the first class area. That's what happens when one thoughtlessly "follows company orders." Precious lives are at stake!

    This mass mailing is just a wake up call to the WTBTS I think. The former members have removed their blinders and are willing to HELP others to do the same! History has shown that tyrannical rule leads to much heartache and does not last long. I am so glad that thousands of letter have gotten out. Hopefully they will reach the good hearted ones who are in charge of the "flock." Those who are dedicated to caring for others. There are many good JW's and many who really love Jehovah. The direction they are going with the WTBTS undermines everthing that Jesus said in the bible. Hopefully they can see that, and one day help others out.

    Thanks Randy for posting!
