10 response of the jehovah’s witness organisation to the sexual abuse of children.
having regard to the various matters we have discussed in this report, we have reached a number of general conclusions on the jehovah’s witness organisation’s response to the sexual abuse of children.
we do not consider the jehovah’s witness organisation to be an organisation which responds adequately to child sexual abuse.
And when will the society learn that they could earn so much public goodwill by simply saying " we made some serious mistakes. We did not conduct ourselves properly."
Of course we all know, that will never happen. They will never admit to being wrong like this

Bring on the sanctions and penalties !
Oh and then watch how the society spins that around and claims "persecution"
warning - long post ahead!
monday, november 28.
what we will notice is that there are three scriptural answers to this question.
It simply means "you will only marry a witness of equal social standing and spiritual standing to yourself."
i'm at my quasi-thanksgiving dinner with relatives.
i hear a haunting sound from another room.
"is that a children's song?
Yes all of these presentations that have been made over the last 4 to 5 years are doing an amazing job at highlighting the ridiculousness of the society!
I simply wonder what the so called intellectual ones who are still in the organisation honestly think about these things ? I mean seriously in their quiet moments alone do they not look at these things and think "what the hell is this embarrassing stuff??"
australian child abuse royal commission rejects dr monica applewhite's evidence and testimony.. [quote] dr applewhite acknowledged that her report did not identify the basis on which she had formed her opinions.657 she accepted that her report failed to identify the ‘current standards’ of other religious organisations658 or which ‘religious organisations’ she referred to in writing her report.659 dr applewhite told the royal commission that her understanding of material provided to parents and families about sexual development in children by other faith-based organisations was ‘anecdotal’.660.
dr applewhite accepted that it would be difficult for the royal commission to accept the opinions expressed in paragraphs 36, 45, and 46 of her report because her report did not identify the basis on which those opinions were formed.661.
we do not consider that dr applewhite’s report and the opinions expressed therein assist the royal commission in its inquiry for the following reasons:.
For anyone who may not have watched her time before the royal commission, I strongly suggest watching the video footage. (It can be likely be found on YouTube.)
Her presentation and delivery, as well as poor answers to the questions was simply appalling.
It was an embarrassment of monumental proportions for both her and the society!

im printing this off and spending my next sunday morning doing some door to door work posting this article through all the letter boxes of the street my local kh is on.. it's shocking that none of the r&f know about this.
i have a feeling that the 2 witness rule will be revised in 2017 and made to look like it was jehovah's proper time.
The chickens have come home to roost!
this is an excerpt about shunning from the royal commissions latest (final?
) report: i think it is a must read and shows clearly that shunning also needs to be considered when child abuse is discussed and how cruel it is.. here the report:.
jehovah’s witnesses are counselled against associating, fraternising or conversing with a person who has been disfellowshipped or who has chosen to disassociate from the jehovah’s witness organisation.
Great thread!
Thanks for posting these report findings of the ARC!
Yes, this practice of speaking critically and negatively of those who fade or leave, smacks of paranoia and propaganda!
The society (GB) paints the picture that all who leave are wicked, evil, unrepentant sinners. The reality is, that is far from the truth! Most who leave have just learned the disturbing facts of the society! Simple!
the february 2017 wt had stated that the gb is "neither inspired nor infallible" and that it can make errors in doctrine.. the language of the online wt issue now says, “the governing body is neither inspired nor perfect.
therefore, it can make mistakes when explaining the bible or directing the organization.”.
why the change?
So, they are not "perfect" nor "inspired" AND YET, every witness is guilted into following the GB as if THEY WERE the PERFECT JESUS??
Huh??
What a jump that is.....
so it looks like now i'm a return visit.
i don't have it in me to be mean to the j dubs when they drop by so i chat with them.
on thanksgiving morning one of them dropped by (my wife previously asked them to stop coming by).
Be careful. All your words will come back to bite you if you allow them to keep visiting.
They will come back with a couple of elders...and unless you remind them of "appropriate boundaries" , they will try and railroad you....
turning 42 and celebrating my second birthday!
there's some strange crap only we could understand..
It seems so many of us wake up around the age of 40.....
Yes, I've never had a birthday...so am I really 40, or am I just 1?
