Man, it's screwed up how much they mess with families then try to blame the 'apostate' .
Best of luck matey, they'll be on the blower to legal as we speak..
i've been toying with the idea of just coming out and posting my name and location as an attempt to be available to locals that secretly browse the forum that have known me for up to 25 years.
( "reaching out", so to speak ).
i'm not da'd or df'd, so this most certainly could end in a dramatic confrontation.

as far as i can imagine, the .org is in a lose, lose, lose situation right now.
if jackson shows to the rc, and policy chages, then bible interpretation was changed sans-holy spirit.
policy change is an admission of guilt, not helpful in future civil court cases.
Don't underestimate the power of SPIN, if anything has to change as a result of this enquiry, they'll spin it to the max. (Aren't we loving, making our org more safe for the little kiddies)
Don't forget, a large percentage of witnesses won't even have heard of the ARC, so any noo lite on procedure will be taken at face value, as a loving alteration, more evidence of us being god's bOrganisation.
As for previous victims who will no doubt be outraged, they're a minority who can easily be dismissed as damaged or bitter.
Don't get me wrong, any change that complies with the 'world's' advanced protective policies of safeguarding the vulnerable is great news to me. But this is an organisation that has twisted and turned, using spin to weasel out of multiple end of the world predictions. A slight change in policy will be nothing to them.

Jolly good show old chaps, well done!
today i feel deep sad memories in my brain.. visiting bookstudy with my parents, doing my best giving answers at 7 years old.. doing fieldservice every weekend and on an evening.. i could write so much story's about it.. we believed from our hart and listened to what the organisation told us.. it makes me sad, what a scam it became.. today i can't stand it.. i can cry about it.

most of you, like me, keep yourself informed as to what's happening in jw-land.
like me, you make it your business to know what's going on.
so i'm wondering why the wtbts is allowing eldubs to appear in these inquiries in australia??
I was wondering exactly the same, thanks fit the answers everybody that seems clear as day now..
How high up can the commissions powers reach? Can they enforce change of policy? And if so, only for Oz?
real proof god exists.
he created a miracle we all know and love.
