If the Society / GB dedicated as much effort to the child abuse issue as they did to tracking down those who expose their videos, the Australian Royal Commission would never have been needed!
Glad to see they have their priorities right!

Play a game of "spot the other Awake JW"....
guadelope an island near brazil has 1 in 49 people are witnesses.
403,000 population 8,300 witnesses!
the main language is french and cereol.
I wonder what the child abuse issue is like there....
i would like to think there was some good that resulted from our being a witness at one time..
For any supposed "benefit" it may have provided me, I can think of many "negatives" it also caused me!
We will NEVER get back our younger years and opportunities....and for that I am angry.
..".for a witness to all the nations and then the end will come" .matt.24:14.. the religion of jehovah`s witnesses kid themselves into thinking they are filling or have fulfilled this prophecy/scripture .. given that you take the jehovah`s witnesses and the international bible students association as one and the same religion , then they have been preaching their message primarily within lands that are predominantly christian based.....and certainly do not cover "all the inhabited earth " as their are many populous non christian nations nations that do not allow, even forbid any proselytizing in their lands.
i would estimate about one third of the current world population.. but that is not all .. given that you take the jehovah`s witnesses and the international bible students association as one and the same religion ,then they have about 140 years of preaching their beliefs to the public specifically to preach "this good news of the kingdom " as they claim to do in obedience to j.c.commands at matt.24:14.. take a survey no matter where you live on this planet earth of the people in your locality and if you asked them "what was the message jehovah`s witnesses left you and no one would be able to say "they told me about and explained to me the good news of the kingdom" and what it would mean to me.. no one would be able to say that .after 140 years of preaching and witnessing by what is now 8 million plus jehovah`s witnesses .. what a waste of time and energy and lives .. after 140 years of preaching what do the public know about jehovah`s witnesses ?.
they don`t take blood transfusions .
Sir82 said it perfectly!!
Well done !

Bumped for those who missed this post...
ectopic pregnancies, when detected, are usually treated by surgically removing them.
i always understood that this procedure was ok for jehovah's witnesses.
but the subject came up during pioneer school.
What an idiot of a Circuit Overseer! I give you credit for remaining dignified and polite as you reasoned with him.
I would have called him ignorant!
I know of a Regular Pioneer and wife of an Elder who had an ectopic pregnancy and had it taken care of. No congregational punitive measures were leveled at them.

Clearly they would not need a police force there then??

"What a wonderful occasion to be here. An occasion based on truth, honesty and sincerity. Nothing can stand in the way of these wonderful qualities. No doubt all of us here value these qualities, and base our very lives on the foundation of such personality assets. My dear friends _____ have certainly done this, and thats why we are here...It is a privilege to share a few words today as the 'best man'. etc...."
