Watchtower Society is NOT learning
by Amazing1914 ini believed for a while, since 2000, with the build up of lawsuits and litigation, that the watchtower society was at least trying to protect itself better.
they did publish some useful, if very imperfect, changes in policy regarding child abuse that appeared to suggest their practices were headed in the right direction.. then, in the year 2006, the hammer of hard reality smacks me upside the head.
my son-in-law's dad, who i have mentioned in a continuing series, has been back in jail for sometime because of lying to the police about his sexual deeds with children.

JW Ben: Judicial Committees
by AuldSoul injw ben,.
you said you will answer questions a long as no one becomes rude.
i can't really guarantee that no one on the forum will become rude in this thread, but i can guarantee that i won't, so long as i am treated with respect.. from my research, i have found no scriptural basis for the following aspects of judicial committees:elders acting in place of or on behalf of the individual members congregation in determining who is guilty and what the punishment should be.conducting secret hearings, without allowing witnesses to the proceedings or allowing the proceedings to be recorded.making a statement of the outcome (sentencing) and expecting congregants to abide by the elder's decision whether they know the facts of the matter or not.ruling in favor of shunning anyone who voluntarily leaves, i.e.

apostates - all liars - generalizing
by stillajwexelder inone thing that really pisses me off and stops me "coming out" as an apostate is that, if somebdoy becomes an apostate they are automatically liars in the eyes of jws.
every time apostasy is mentioned in magazines it is always in the context that they are automatically liars.
to my mind, most apostates are evry truthful, but the wtbts/ rank and gfile etc , automatically brand you as a liar when you become an apostate and it really angers me.
