  Sitting in it but out of it mentally it's quite sad that I bought into it for forty years. I was simply too trusting. 

  It's gang mentality. Our gang is better than all the other gangs.  We'll present our version of the facts and all will agree.  Because why would you disagree? Don't you want to be in the best gang? 

  Blindfolded we are.

  Sat in it right now.  There's no discussion of ideas.  It's just question/answer as per written in the paragraph. .  Bored stiff!

  On announcing the presence of a sexual predator

  by disposable hero of hypocrisy in

  there's a lot of talk on here about changes the society must make, one of them being the announcing of sexual predators in the congregation.

  i agree.

  but do any other organizations do the same?

  So,  in summary,  simply report all accusations of what is a CRIME to the police.  Immediately. Simple. 

  Cooperate with the authorities. Simple. 

  Support the accusers.  Simple.

  Seems to be fairly logical and common sense. 

  How the hell do they get it so wrong? 

  I like otwo's suggestion of reminding congregation goers to check whatever website lists sexual offenders for your area for the protection of your children.  Again common sense.

  I know that to work with kids here in the UK, you have to pass a crb check, and if you've got anything like that on your record then no way José. But if a crb check isn't mandatory (which it clearly should be), then does any other group do what we think the WT should?

  Biology professor speaks out about Watchtower misquoting him

  by EndofMysteries in

  http://www.inquisitr.com/1766536/biology-professor-creationist-magazine/.

  a biology professor is speaking out, demanding an apology and calling for an end to attempts to perpetuate lies against evolution after a statement from him was taken out of context in a creationist article in awake!, a jehovahs witness publication.

  he says that a portion of his statement was picked from the whole, leaving a completely different impression from his actual statement.. .

  Well,  I,  for one,  shall never trust professor Singh again after this quote in the Awake magazine.  Incidentally,  I'm very rich and was going to commission professor Singh to undertake several studies for me.  But not any more.  

  (there,  his reputation has been damaged and he's out of pocket financially.  Go ahead and seek restitution prof!)
