for those who missed the dateline program, i have posted the transcript on watchtower information service.
someone sent it me by mail.
i am not sure he typed it out by himself or it is the official transcript.. rado vleugel.
Great to see that (transcript) available on-line.
Hey JanH,
You said that the WTS had a partial victory. Is that in relation to them (Dateline) not airing everything that was uncovered? Just curious........And yeah, I'd like to see some journalist really take it to the next level and get on the blood issue, disfellowshipments and etc.
ok, so the dateline pedophilia story is on.
happy that its finally seeing the light of day.
my question is....how to keep the momentum going??
Patricia:
You're right. This needs to get out. I'm gonna forward this to the associated press and see if they can do something with it.
Francois:
You're on-point with the smaller markets. I dug your Savannah newspaper intervention work.
But overall, I would love to see a group of folks unite and systematically "break-through" the WTS walls on:
(1) Disfellowshipments and family break-ups
(2) Wrongful disfellowshipments (THERE'S A BUNCH OF THESE)
(3) Blood Issue (lotta directions you can go with it)
(4) Doctrinal flip-flops
(5) Elders lack of professional qualifications/aptitude in dealing with pedophilia, spousal/domestic abuse, psychological dysfunction, etc.
(6) Abuse of Power
(7) Demystify and distinguish the religion in relation to the publishing company
(8) Biased minsterial appointments (very hard to prove)
(9) Reparations (WTS ruined lives/career goals. Get former bethelites/full-time ministers to testify)
all, it is time for each of us to stand in unity.
please post your letters to dateline here.
there is strength in numbers.
UP...........
if we walk away with nothing from this whole issue on dateline .
i think the following is so important .
let us compare the appointed elders who are asked to look into the matter of child molestation,.
I can't think of a better way to sum it up......That's on-point JT....

Do you have a link to that newspaper site?

OK, so the Dateline Pedophilia story is on. Happy that its finally seeing the light of day. My question is....How to keep the momentum going?? What WTS chinks in the armor should be placed in the spotlight....and WHY?? Blood issue, SLAVE (social security, financial) reparations for Bethelites or other former full-time ministers, and Disfellowshipping are my picks. What are yours?
there are several major doctrines that the watchtower strictly.
holds but cannot publically acknowledge or openly teach.. here are a few:.
1) women are not allowed to have equal authority with men.. their status or rank is secondary and inferior.. 2) homosexuality is evil - they won't condemn it openly, especially.
Bringing this back up to the top.....GREAT POST!!!
i brought this up a while back (last year some time...can't find the damn post!!
)...has the watchtower hinted at this yet?.
ps i think the reasoning of this is that its 70 years since the closing of the heavenly calling (1934/35).
As much as I'd like to see the WBTS set a date and be WRONG yet again, I don't see your rational in concluding that they are even hinting at 2004-2005. There has been nothing said or implied in their publications that would even allude to that. We're reaching here.............
i was sent this email - i gave a couple of talks in this hall, in fact it is not that far from where we have built our new home.. and they say jw don't do creature worship.

Yeah....I remember JR's Q-45......man those were da' days. Anyhow, anybody have the scoop on why Larry is not an elder presently and why he was deleted? If there's any credible source out there update a brotha........
