  I'm surprised, almost shocked, by the level of honesty with which he's responding. Another elder would probably have lied through his teeth about reporting crimes to the authorities.

  elderINewton:

  "its going to be interesting to hear what the branch reps say on the stand. I can easily say the only recourse for them at this stage is to let the elders hang and say they were the problem not following direction."

  They can try but one of the pieces of evidence that the commission produced was the Flock book which is damning evidence against the whole hierarchy.

  If Disfellowshipping pedophiles protects the congregation, what does it do for "Those Outside" they are expelled to?

  by Wasanelder Once in

  we all know the wt basis for disfellowshipping, (1 corinthians 5:9-13) 9 12 for what do i have to do with judging those outside?

  do you not judge those inside, 13 while god judges those outside?

  remove the wicked [man] from among yourselves.. if removing "the man" is a protection for the congregation and no police are called, what does it say about the witnesses view of the world?

  It is easier to be a pedophile in the congregation than outside of it since there is more "trust" within the congregation.

  (Deuteronomy 19:15) . . .No single witness may convict another for any error or any sin that he may commit. On the testimony of two witnesses or on the testimony of three witnesses the matter should be established.

  (Deuteronomy 22:25-27) 25 “If, however, it is in the field that the man found the girl who was engaged, and the man grabbed hold of her and lay down with her, the man who lay down with her must also die by himself, 26 and to the girl you must do nothing. The girl has no sin deserving of death, because just as when a man rises up against his fellowman and indeed murders him, even a soul, so it is with this case. 27 For it was in the field that he found her. The girl who was engaged screamed, but there was no one to rescue her.

  Good catch fastJehu. I never caught the contradiction between those two verses.

  I'm sure that if it's an elders wife that is raped they will forego the two witness rule.

  FadeToGrey:

  "the commision asked about murder if they would report that if it happened in the congreation

  "the idiot said if a brother confessed to murder. They would not tell the police. But only encourage the bother to see the police.

  "The commissioner was gob smacked"

  Inside the famous Denisova cave in Siberia

  when our ancestors first migrated out of africa around 60,000 years ago, they were not alone.

  at that time, at least two other species of hominid cousins walked the eurasian landmassneanderthals and denisovans.

  as our modern human ancestors migrated through eurasia, they encountered the neanderthals and interbred.

  Now I know why my High School JW crush had brow ridges. Seriously.

  Hundreds of JW Child Molesters in Australia not Reported to Police- CNN News you tube

  by flipper in

  2. child-abuse

  i felt it might be a good idea to post this so that sitting on the fence jw's or jw lurkers can see that this australia jw child abuse news of 1,006 jw child molesters not being reported to police by elders is a reality that has hit mainstream news media.

  i thought this report was very well done.

  here's the link : http://www.cnn.com/videos/world/2015/07/28/australia-jehovah-witness-sex-abuse-hannigan-lklv.cnn.

  1,006 individuals in Australia out of 66,000 Witnesses. That's 1 out of 60 members and it doesn't take into account that:

  1. There are likely to be several molesters for every single one discovered.
  2. There are mostly likely to have been multiple victims by each individual.

  2. beliefs

  i've thought and said too much to ever gain jehovahs forgiveness and love if i want to be a christian again.

  i made a topic on my unforgivable sin and blaspemy of the holy spirit.. i feel saddness everyday having no relationship with god, no religion and fear of the afterlife.

  even when i was kid i feared death and the end of the world.

  I feel it in my sprirt in my deep soul, that GOD doesnt love me and will never love me again

  060702015, you need, in cooperation with your therapist, to root that feeling out.

  Also, if you haven' already, see a psychiatrist and get on some good anti-depressants. From personal experience they have worked for me and I was at a point in my life where I was going to commit suicide.

  I wonder how exposed to this information the general Australian public is. Will the Australian Witnesses see a backlash from people in their door to door activities?
