  jehovah church faces flood of sex abuse cases.

  "a woman who was abused from the age of four by a senior officer of the jehovahs witnesses has lodged a 500,000 claim for compensation in a test case that could open the door to hundreds more suits involving members of the religious organisation in the uk.".

  “An Uncomfortable History”

  “The Report of the Commission to Inquire Into Child Abuse reveals an uncomfortable history of Ireland,” says The Irish Times. According to the newspaper, this report uncovers a history stained by the systematic abuse of children in Catholic religious institutions, ranging from “beating children whose crime it was that lice had infested their heads” to sustained sexual abuse. The abuse was ignored because of misguided loyalty to “the absolute authority of the Catholic Church,” says the paper. “Shame on You, Government and Church,” said a headline in the Times, quoting the words of one who sympathized with the victims.

  Had doubts, researched on internet, ordered Crisis of Conscience from Amazon, couldn't put it down, read it in two days, made my decision, never went to another meeting. Explained to concerned elders I was taking a sabbatical, which so far has lasted 12 years!

  The talk "Beware of Apostates" commenced at 11.10am and finished at 11.40am on Saturday 31st August. The Scotsman newsflash is timed and dated at 12.24pm on the same day. Coincidence?

  Role Reversal: Placing 1969 Awake with JW's Manning the New Portable Literature Displays

  in recent weeks the jw’s here in the uk have been setting up their new portable watchtower literature displays in my local town square on a saturday morning.

  as they hadn’t knocked on my door for at least five years, and consequently feeling somewhat neglected, i thought that i would pay them a visit instead.. .

  the first thing i needed to do was arrange my literature.

  Steve, great point about the Millions Now Living Will Never Die. The use of the word "will"indicates the message was promoted as a fact, that they are all now dead indicates it was merely an opinion.

  I didn't say it at the time to Emma because I thought I'd gone far enough, but having established that the claimed facts were actually simply opinions, the next logical step is to ask if it is OK for a Witness to disagree with the opinions expressed in the Watchtower, a tricky question for a thinking JW.

  Hi Shyla

  Generally speaking Witnesses are lovely people who have had the misfortune to be deceived by the WBTS, we should treat them with compassion and try to win hearts.

  I truly believe that simply confronting them with the facts in a respectful and kind way will keep the lines of communication open and in time liberate many.

  Hi Cofty

  This really is going to backfire on them. I've noticed the stand appears to be manned by different witnesses each week. I intend to take every opportunity to reverse witness whilst the opportunity affords.
