i posted this as a reply to another thread, but thought it deserved it's own thread to draw attention to this important moment in the day 2 testimony.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zl4fobrocc8.

I have zero sympathy for these elders.

In fact the only thing I do feel is disgust. Disgust for their pathetic responses.

They are not the victims here. They are willful accomplices to the obstruction of justice, they are a disgrace.

Another Shocking clip From JW Australia Royal investigation Elder would not report MURDER

by Watchtower-Free in

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nfj1ecde5fy.

So it's up to the individual to decide whether or not to report a crime like murder to the police, and the elders would not do so. But if that same person were to....oh I don't know let's just say....unrepentantly smokes cigarettes, they would get expelled from the congregation.

Wow, that could only make sense dub world.

I'm hoping that as well. The callous attitude of JWs and their leaders towards ...well just about everything and everyone, needs to be exposed. I am soo glad I left!

Are they trying to make me feel like crap?

by StarTrekAngel in

so i have not reported a single hour of fs or family worship in over 8 months.

have not given a single comment in a meeting for over a year.

a few weeks ago, my brother in law, who is an ms now, approached me.

"Appearing like an effing hypocrite in front of your family"

Don't worry the rest of the congregation will view it that way as well.

Gee thanks BIL,

This is getting more and more disgusting: "JW Abuse Victim Told to Bottle Her Tears"

by cappytan in

it took six years and three trials before a senior official in the jehovah's witness church was jailed for sexually abusing his daughter.. the only support the jehovah's witnesses gave the woman was to tell her to" put her tears in a skin bottle".. .
