  To add to flippers comments above - nor will the householders know that a serial abuser is coming to their door offering free home bible studies. We musn't forget these people are set loose on the general public as well.

  I would urge anyone who is still supporting this dangerous cult to GET OUT, get out now.

  The end is nigh! Pretty soon the court of public opinion will make it's ruling even if the courts are slow to do so.

  Thank you internet😆

  I vividly remember a circuit assembly where the speaker was talking about "false" claims against the society and how the elders would go to jail before disclosing any confidential matter to the authorities, and the whole audience erupted into applause. He was talking about abuse claims.

  I was apalled then and I 'm apalled now.

  Theses people are total assholes.

  JW.org Email Service - Now I've Seen EVERYTHING!!!

  by jw07 in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  maybe i'm late but i just discovered that elders now have an email service run on the jw.org domain name.. those emails might contain a treasure trove of very sensitive material regarding rape, molestation, pedophilia cases etc.. the cult keeps getting creepier and creepier.

  why would they do that in this day and age, lots of damning stuff in one place?.

  Recovery from this religious group is a process and the first phase for many is the information gathering phase. There are no right or wrong ways nor any standard length of time to pass through the various phases. So if you feel the need to continue reading and processing - even the same information- don't worry too much it takes time to wrap your head around all of this. You'll move on when your ready to.

  Attitudes of WT Society Leaders Towards " Rights " of Child Abuse Victims and Elders

  by flipper in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  these excerpts i'm sharing with you are from the july 1st, 1989 letter from the wt society to the elders and it gives outsiders a good idea of the attitude of the wt society leaders towards child abuse victims and even towards their own appointed elders.

  and it shows wt society is first, foremost, and mainly concerned about financial fallout from potential lawsuits.

  one short quote was used from this letter on the abc news nightline report about candace conti - but what i'm going to share with you will be other excerpts from that same letter that are just as, or even more revealing.
