Eden One, I never said that your related posts are not opinions; I don't know one way or another but only that you say that they are opinions. The point of my post that you refer to is that I do not have any authority to determine one way or the other.

Labeling a statement as your "opinion" does not make it so. Courts look at whether a reasonable reader or listener could understand the statement as asserting a statement of verifiable fact. (A verifiable fact is one capable of being proven true or false.)

Her father appears to be one appaling case of a sick abuser narcissist invested and kept in an authority role by the WT.
What you have said above can be interpreted as or contrued to mean that WT is keeping a known child abuser in a position of authority.

consistent with thousands of other cases involving children abused in the context of the Jehovah's Witness religion and how the WT instructs the elders to deal with it
It has already been established by Richard Oliver in another thread that in the US, WT has been complying and is complying with US law; so, consistently, how does the video show that WT is not complying with US law?

What do you mean by covering up by the WT since WT complies with US law?
Violating state mandatory child abuse reporting law is a crime or a violation of said statute. Can you cite one case filed against the WT in the US where wt was found guilty of violating a mandatory child abuse reporting statute as you are suggesting below that wt may be guilty of?

serious signs of covering up by the WT

............those who question her integrity.
The video makes what seems to be criminal and other accusations. The accuser's integirity is not being challenged, but the truthfulnes of her accusations cannot be determined based on accusations; accusations do not legally determine or establish guilt or legal liability; that is for a Court of competent jurisdiction to decide.

Thank you Richard Oliver for doing your best to clarify in your posts what "Bloodless Surgery" means when hospitals refer to a medical technique that they use- as Bloodless Surgery.
I hope that my linked videos that explain and illustrate what "Bloodless Surgery" in fact is, clears up any misconceptions or colorful views on "Bloodless Surgery" to everyone.
All Bloodless Surgery means when a Hospital or doctor uses the term, is that the hospital will use as little blood as possible. And if possible zero blood, but that is not always the case.
So, a person trying to avoid a blood transfusion as much as possible during surgery, may opt to use this technique, but doctors do not guarantee that they won't use blood. They won't use blood if they don't need to but they will if they have to, and if they have to, they will try to use as little as possible -a fraction. And regardless of whether or not blood is used in the medical procedure, hospitals still use the term "Bloodless" to describe the therapy.
Some JW that want to avoid a blood transfusion may opt for this procedure with zero guarantee from the hospital that the hospital will not use blood, but with the assurance from the hospital that if blood is needed, the hospital will only use a fraction using this technique.

FISHERMAN- Your not accepting this woman's story is just another proof of insensitivity and lack of compassion that many JW's were indoctrinated with. "
I am not saying the story isn't true but I also am not saying that the story is true. I don't know. Do you know?
If you know, then show proof.
If you don't know, how did you convinct ?
