I think the numbers of JW who are aware that something is wrong is huge, I think it could be as high as 50% or even more. The amount of JW who are to gutless to do anything about it is really high also. John the 10% are the ones who walk away, stop going, stop contributing etc. Vinman you talk of realists well I`m one of those I can look at a situation & see it for what it truly is & the truth well what do you say- How many women do you think don't report abuse by their husbands, or stand up for their children, how many men will go without financially to spend more time at home, or give up time with their friends to have alone time with their partner, you would be amazed at the amount that just put up & shut up, & you see we humans as a rule don't like to rock the boat not if it means that we will personally get wet. & that my friends is the truth, JW know, you ask them about child abuse they don't ask questions they defend the Borg, why would you go on the defence about something you know nothing about? They know.

My Name is of No Consequence
I don't have a percentage. But I think most believe that something is amiss, but they talk themselves out of it.
"Where else would I go?"
"This is the best way of life."
"The brothers are imperfect."
"Who else preaches from door to door?"
There are very few that possess that zeal that was so common many years ago. Most of the friends just seem to have a "wait and see" attitude.
