  by cofty in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i will email this around uk newspapers, even the ones i wouldn't be seen dead reading.

  i have aimed for succinct and non-sensational.. please feel free to use and abuse it if you want, the more emails they all get the more it may catch their attention.. your feedback please before i send it..... .

  the legal corporation that controls the activities of jehovahs witnesses, the watchtower bible and tract society of new york, has been ordered by a californian court to pay $20 000 001 in punitive damages to a victim of child sexual abuse.. the victim candace conti brought the action after the organisation refused to change its official policy of secrecy as to sexual abuse of children by congregation members.

  Plaintiff awarded in punitive damages -21M & 1 dollar. Total award, 28M & 1 dollar. Here's more info

  by AndersonsInfo in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  the plaintiff, candace conti's goal from the very beginning was to bring enough attention to this problem to incentivize watchtower to change its policy of secrecy.

  the award can be explained as it was decided: separate compensatory and punitive damages.

  the punitive award is established in law to punish wrongdoing - here, the conscious disregard for others - and deter that conduct in the future.

  I'm assuming Kendrick (perp) being a 'private individual' won't be finding $16Million down the back of his sofa. How does this work? Kendrick is an 'agent' of the WT (in this case), so will the WT be liable for his 'portion'?

  Thanks for this. I hope it encourages/opens the floodgates for others to come forward (crikey, there must be MANY).

  I think, in England, we are 'sheltered' from all that happens in USA...it's all so 'distant' to us. It would be a fabulous idea to contact (religious correspondents of) British newspapers.

  I wonder if (similar to the UNO fiasco when it hit the newspapers) when the R&F hear/read about this and maybe approach the elders with questions, it will be dumbed down or even maybe denied as just an elaborate apostate story to discredit the Society..?

  Bethel's buildings in New York have demonic Gargoyles on each corner...yet Spalock is bad?

  by Witness 007 in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  the bishop or rouen defeated a gargoyle with his crucifix....after burning the body only the head remained which was put on the church to scare away other demonic creatures.

  the tradition continued in many buildings today.. now bethel has these creatures on buildings like the bossert hotel....yet sparlock is evil and must be removed???

  with millions of dollars at stake i guess a little demon next to "the watchtower" sign is okay..

  Another vote here tresdecu - nicely written, I hope it's printed (and hope, maybe, their photographer can 'capture' things differently)
