    I posted that 1993 awake article about 2 weeks ago. I am vindicated and saddend at the stupidity of "Jehovah's people" In 1993 there was no child abuse scandal. Yet they prinited this ariticle. How can elders in concience protect a child abusers for 9 years and bar people from using this "spiritual food" from the FDS until the FDS orders them to use it. Talk about selective amnesia.

    Also with all those rules on spying on other immoral JWs you would seem to thing due to the natrual order of things and most people hating child abusers that pedophiles would be under constant watch and everyone would know. I was talking to Justhuman and in greece guess what they are! Apparently in small countries that care more about their families than the reputation of child abusers word travels when they move and people keep an eye on them.

    I have no problem with pedophiles BTW it is not any more a "disease" as homosexuality. Pedophillia is just a fetish. Since most pedophiles are hetrosexual it is not like are sexually flustrated because they can't have sex. I think there is too many TV movie stereotypes about them. Many pedophiles are in adult realships while they abuse children. I don't have a problem with a pedophile in feild service. I have a problem with a criminal in feildservice. He can preach in Jail too.

    XQ, do you have kids? What the HELL are you talking about?

    Pedophillia is just a fetish.

    Scientific evidence would say different.

    I don't have a problem with a pedophile in feild service

    I sure as hell do. Some of them are rated "sexually violent predators" and will use ANY opportunity to rape a child.

    What have you been smoking?

    Finally the tide is turning (after the horse has bolted, as usual).
    I just hope this stance get's beefed up and rolled out to all the other congregations.

    XQs:
    Your statement about Paedophilia being a fetish is an affront to common decency.
    And linking it to a similitude to homosexuality, well, words fail me.
    I just thought you should know...

    Pedophilia is not a crime it is a fetish. Being a sex offender is a crime. It is the difference between a rape and titillation. It was almost universally accepted that scantily clad women do not provoke rape or invite rape. If you twist that to imply I am advocating kiddy porn I'll be pissed.

    As far as science here you go. The majority of Child incest sex offenders are to me less dangerous than rapist.

    And you dont mind these perverisons knocking on peoples doors, but if someone is a theif you do mind?

    Dont overlook the fact that JWs are allowing people who have committed the crime to go around knocking doors.

    Avishai, it doesn't take someone to have children to know that what XQ said is horseshit!

    XQ, WTF?

    Paedophilia IS a specific kind of extra-perverted rape
    Just because pictures aren't taken, doesn't make it less so!!!

    Which ever way you look at it, it's a crime!

    nathan,

    If extraordinary circumstances dictate that a child abuser is not expelled Public Reproof will be offered in the congregation so families with children will be alerted.

    One has to wonder what would constitute an "extraordinary" circumstance that would mitigate punishment for an adult who rapes a little child. That the perp said, "I'm really, REALLY, REALLY sorry that I ruined your child for life"? What a pile of shit that Watchtower Corporation truly is.
