  Current policy regarding child molesters

  by loosie in

  i brought up the conti case with a newly x- jw and they said that the child molestion policy was changed in 90's as far as elders reporting to the authorities.

  so my question is what was the policy changed from and what did it change to?

  and what is the most current letter that we have a copy of regarding the reporting policy?

  NEVER SUGGEST TO ANYONE THAT THEY SHOULD NOT REPORT AN ALLEGATION OF CHILD ABUSE TO THE POLICE OR OTHER AUTHORITIES.

  Why does this just sound sleezy?? Just saying this to protect the org?

  Sounds like there may be a basis for turning down or choosing not to have a blood transfusion in certain cases. It would be nice to have the choice without fear of losing your family, congregation and whole support system.

  this question came to my mind today as i was cleaning with my handy dandy mr. clean magic eraser.. .

  with little to no effort put forth, this white little anomaly erases tea and coffee stains from your favorite mug and makes red kool-aid stains disappear from counter tops.. .

  what kind of dark magic is contained in this soft, white, non-threating piece of foam rubber?.

  What the hell was I thinking?! Stupid me!!

  so my husband and i have a son who will be 2 years old next month and i really wanted him to be socialized more.

  ever since we stopped going to meetings, we have been pretty much shunned even though there has never been an "official" reason for it (df, da..).

  i am terribly introverted, so it's difficult for me to get out there and talk to people but our son is a people-person and i wanted him to have more peers to be around.

  The "friends" are just following the lead of their god Jehovah, who punishes the son for their father's sins.
