  hide behind such a law?

  Simon, I see your point. But the legislation that you are referring to was not drafted for the purpose of offering any protection to the WT or any other church, it was put in place to protect the freedom of speech of the sinner -not the church. It is a legal guarantee (to the sinner) of freedom of speech and communication without any fear of being turned over to the police by the church.

  As for good and bad, Simon, my dad always told me that history is written by those that win the wars. Good and bad does not make any difference to JW movement until Wt and their God are defeated, and if they win, they get to write history. In the meantime, good and bad is only an opinion that is being fought by both sides.

  DD either you are not reading or you can't read. The church refuses to go to jail because Caesar does not want her there. There is no efficacy in child abuse reporting laws with jail bars that provide too much of a protective gap between the sinner and the one hearing the confession, like the distance between words and the one trying to use his word processor -if you know what I mean.

  You are not answering my question. If you do not want to that it is ok.

  Let me repeat the question:

  In the UK, are Anglican priests mandated by UK law to report child abuse that they heard in a priest /penitent setting to statutory authorities?

  Yes or No. (very easy question)

  I will not ask again

  But yes, I'd agree JWs should, the Anglicans should, the Catholics should.

  Understood

  Were JW also "not currently among them"?

  
  

  It seems to me that UK clergy of the Anglican church are not mandated by UK law to report child abuse to stuatory authorities. Is that true?
