    Lest we forget:

    It is not Bill Bowen who has the "smoking gun" against the WTS on covering up child abuse; it is Barbara Anderson.

    I'm not sure I can agree with that, since it's 5000 real victims that have contacted BB, Barb Anderson is a great person for coming out, however she doesn't have real proof that what she says is true, not saying it's not true, however without real proof, it's really her word against the WTBS. Now if she had, say copies of the computer information she claims is there, then that would be different.

    Farkel,

    You and others have gone off the deep end on this board when someone calls your honesty and/or integrity into question. Why should this be any different?

    If Ray Franz were the one to initiate an attack on Bill Bowen, if he were the one to slander Bill Bowen and cast a shadow on his good name; the reaction here would have been the same. imo.

    What? After leaving the Watchtower because of their lies and expectations of unqualified loyalty, we should now turn a blind eye when one of our own does the same?

    Double standards is something I thought we were trying to rise above.

    IW,

    : Barb Anderson is a great person for coming out, however she doesn't have real proof that what she says is true, not saying it's not true, however without real proof, it's really her word against the WTBS.

    How can you dare say something that? Do you know her? Do you know what she knows? Have you even spoken with her? I know her. If it was just her "word" then why would the WTS go to such great lengths to DF her over what amounts to bullshit?

    You don't know what you are talking about, and while what you said isn't slanderous, it's foolish and irresponsible. If you care so much about finding the pure "truth" in matters as you say, you'd better start working in your own back yard first.

    If someone lies and I repeat that lie as fact, am I not lying, too?

    Have it your way Farkel, but I never said anything about Barbara Anderson.

    Explain please.

    IW

    Edited to add: I was a little surprised at the harshness in your response to "TH", now I understand.

    Barbara Andersen is not a 'member' of The Silentlambs Organization ('Movement)'. She never was a 'member' of this 'mvement'. (incidently, what is the requirement for 'membership' anyway?) She was a valuable instrument in helping 'silent--lambs' and The Silentlambs Organization in re: with the media. She has thus 'moved on'. And is concentrating on continuing to help 'silent--lambs' throughout the rest of her days with related 'projects'.

    Shit. I apologize, IW. Let the readers note: my comments to IW should have been directed to Trauma Hound. Your comments to me were just below Trauma Hound's comments and I confused the source. Alzheimer's does that to me.
