After reading that letter, I can honestly say that IF and that is very unlikely, but IF we ever went back, we would have to learn the whole JW thing over again. It is so completely different, that one would be totally lost!
Who could be bothered? They are just rearranging deck chairs on the Titanic!
the article is a good summary to show people who are too busy to read the transcript.
the main points are covered, without jackson's waffling... this is my favourite quote:.
jackson also testified that while there havent been any particular discussion among church leadership about apologizing to victims of sexual abuse, its perceivable that they might consider doing so.
For an organization that claim to speak for god, even though he doesn't actually speak through or even to them [as they say, they are not...NOT divinely inspired] yet their word is as the word of god, they have been caught well and truly on the back foot, and even though they know it and have known it for 10 to 15 years or more, they refuse to get up to speed on this issue, even though the so called false religions of the world who are supposedly guided by satan are way out in front and will apologize and compensate and pay for proper psychiatric care fro victims.... The leadership duck and dodge and throw up smoke screens and will only move IF it becomes law here in Australia.
So bloody woeful.....
mr stewart has uncovered enough evidence of the horrors of this process set in motion by a bunch of lunatics suffering from a messiah complex and so the findings of this inquiry will will mark a beginning in the infrastructure of this institution being limited severely by laws of the land.
i'm sure new legislation that will be forth coming will be tackling this major problem head long.
It does highlight many other issues that some churches are dealing with apart from paedophiles, women in roles of responsibility, and what about some young sister who has "slipped" up and "sinned"...she will still have to face an inquisition on her own infront of three men?
The RC has shown those who wish to look, that the dubz are a shonk!

public hearing: case study 29 into jehovah's witnesses, sydney.
on saturday the elder and his wife turned up.
i have my reasons for not turning them away at the moment, at least, not until the completion of the rc.. i asked him about his thoughts on the rc.
he said that he thought it was easy and nothing to worry about.
observing our local unemployed pioneers and how long they take to get to their first or next call, usually taking the longest route to get to one they know won't be there anyway.
along the way it's gossipy this and that.
pioneers?
Back in the day we had a group of regular pioneers who used to get up in the morning and start their time by writing letters to householders that could be used when the regulation 3 attempts at calling on not at homes failed. They would get up and still be in their pajamas and sipping coffee and eating their toast. They would have 3 hours in before they met the group for fs!!!
What a joke and what a complete waste of time!
