Oh, and WHY does it fail to acknowledge the FACT that there were over 1006 UNREPORTED cases in Australia alone??
Yes why not mention that there is a Royal Commission going on in Australia about child abuse.
And that the Australian government is investigating institutions in an effort to protect children from abuse.
We know why! Because they want to keep the rank and file in the dark.
one part of me is petrified of showing this video.

many here have asked how the average witness in australia is taking the news of the arc findings and conclusions.. is it affecting them?.
sorry to say, hardly any are even aware of the facts.
those that are, have been convinced that all the publicity is "apostate lies and satanic propaganda".
thanks darkspilver

the society does not want anyone talking about anything negative. At an elders school we were told not to respond to any accusations made against us in the press. The idea is if no one is talking it will be forgotten.
also some in the congregations are fearful of saying anything in case they are labeled as doubters and therefore spiritually weak.
Don't worry I have a still in elderly relative and I have said to them why don't you ask the elders about the Royal Commission. Their reply "your got to be kidding"!
"I found it amusing that my sis would come to me to inquire about the happenings of her religion."
maybe she does not want to visit apostate sites. and feels safe talking to you.. I think that is a positive.

two weeks back I was talking to a person who had been inactive for 15 years. He had been to a family funeral that weekend. One his relatives is a well known elder.. Anyway he asks this elder whats the go with this Royal Commission.. The Elder relative says "nothing to worry about we are in the clear!"
sounds like false stories are being spread and rank and file are lapping it up.
this sums up Australian JWs. exchange between elder and Justice Peter McClellan
