    Bobby,

    This organisation also has obligations to those who class themselves as members of this organisation. Withholding information of criminal activity is a crime and no amount of hand wringing about '2 witnesses' can shift that fact. The law is clear and that is why this organisation you like to support has to hide these facts because they have acted illegally.

    However you seem to think this is all about money. Perhaps you are more 'watchtower' than you even think you are...

    What criminal activity? Where’s your proof?

    Oh yeah, they need to let the cops raid HQ because if they refuse, that means they’re hiding crimes. Forget that little pesky piece of paper called the Constitution and those silly little details like “evidence” and “proof”. Who needs those anyway? We have all the media reports we need!

    a religious group with a greater abuse scandal than Catholic Church + fewer resources than the Catholic Church = collapsed

    Nevertheless Bobby it's all very GRAVE for your beloved organisation because as Barbara says in the OP - a Judge has ordered them to hand over internal documents ...

    You can WHITEWASH it anyway you like but there is precious little of 1 Peter 2 v 12 that applies to the Borg.

    We learned that certain constitutional provisions go out the door when there is evidence that demonstrates a criminal enterprise. Talk to Michael Cohen about it.

    I love a valid search warrant in the morning.

    So Bobby, if he WT has not done anything criminal, what do they have to hide?

    Why not open the doors to prove their innocence?

    Because there is a fundamental principle that governs all civilized societies; INNOCENT until PROVEN guilty.

    The presumption is always that of innocence.

    Therefore, we are not required to prove our innocence. It’s assumed. Your accusations are NOT assumed true.

    Sucks, doesn’t it?

    Well, that is handy

    The one being accused holds the "proof" and they won't let that "evidence" be accessible.

    Good gig if you can land it.

    That would be like the thief who locks up all his stolen merchandise and then jumps up and down saying "I am innocent!"

    Try telling that to the WT.
