by MUNKAFATS inas im a non witness a married couple call on me every couple of weeks , the last time they called i asked them about this supposed cover up , the husband told me that hes been an elder for 17 years and in that time they have only had one episode of abuse and that frist it was handled by the org and then was sent to the proper authorities

They are the ones that set the two witness rule which basically gives total cover to the pedophile, they surely know that it's not possible for thousands of children to lie about being abused.
That's it compelling
Moreover the elder oversight arrangement in some cong is often a 'good ole boys club' with one elder presiding overseer acting as godfatherif he is disposed to act on or supress an issue the other elders follow suit and act as his 'rubber stamps'.
The TWO WITNESS RULE requiring TWO WITNESSES to every sin big and small is the Watchtower way and is an over extension of 2 corn.13:1 I will elaborate,,,there are LOOPHOLES if the local elder political powers that be want to do something or cover it up they have the "two witness" subterfuge to fall back on.
Example:Family wealthy and popular has a daughter seen smoking cigarettes.
Need two witnesses
Example:Family poor and not influential has a daughter seen smoking cigarettes.
Disfellowshipped on ONE witness (to keep the congregation clean and to instill fear in others)
I have seen this played out over and over -

I can think of another major factor: stress. How many people die not due to an incident that can be traced to the blood or a suicide or poor health care, but from the day to day stress of being a Witness. Repressing one's true feelings, having to always do ever more, not sleeping properly, eating fast good-tasting poison all the time because you have to keep that almighty time going, all the meetings, and the harsh rules put enough stress on people to set off other health problems. Some would not have developed at all had the person been a worldly person.
My father regular pio 1952-1957 and worked a lot with Brother 'Rathtopolis' who later became a Massachuetts District overseer I listed to many of his talks at the Natick mass assembly hall.My Dad pointed out that he was "bugged eyed" from thyroid condition goiter that was aggrevated by too many hotdogs and donuts out in service.

Saturday, June 30, 2007 Re: "Jehovah's Witnesses hope to debunk myths about their faith" (C-P, June 9). My family trusts the Courier-Post's normally excellent reporting, so the article troubled us. This completely one-sided story gives the false impression that this "religion" is somehow benevolent but misunderstood. Unfortunately, the reporter didn't talk to a single former member who escaped from the Watchtower or interview any families who lost members to this cult. And there was no mention of the Witness's many controversial practices or their own child sexual abuse scandal. Like the wolf in sheep's clothing, the Witnesses the Witnesses disguise themselves as a Christian group in order to seem legitimate. In reality, they're an authoritarian cult. The Watchtower employs unethical and coercive tactics to recruit new members and maintain control of those who think independently or try to leave. It's heartbreaking to slowly lose a loved one as the Watchtower manipulates him or her into shunning you. So it's no surprise the International Cultic Studies Association identifies the Witnesses as a cult. A Google search reveals many more organizations devoted to exposing the Watchtower or providing support for former members and families of current ones. There are hardly any pro-Witness sites besides the two "authorized" ones operated by the Watchtower itself. The Courier-Post covers most stories thoroughly, but dropped the ball this time. The public needed to know the whole truth about Jehovah's Witnesses and see how they really affect families. Hopefully, readers will not be deceived by the Watchtower's well-polished propaganda.

When I exited the Jehovah's Witnesses in 1992 EVERY Jehovah's Witness around me,was convinced in their heart of hearts that they would NOT see 2007 in "this old system"
Many had NO retirement plans for old age. Many including myself where not maintaining their long term health care high blood pressure,diabetes,etc.causing premature deaths.I alone have at least 3 JW's in my family that died before their time expecting the new system to save them.I have colostomy bag (in 1998) from not controlling the inflammation of ulcerative colitis that I got in 1970 expecting 1975 to cure me.

The "First Lie" Comparative To Change In Generation Teaching?
by TheKings inthe wts, and perhaps other religions, teach that in the book of genesis we find an account of the first lie.
this was satan's words:"you positively will not die" in reference to them eating the fruit of the tree of knowledge... you all know this one, of course.. .
it occurred to me today that the change in the generation teaching is a mirror of the adam and eve scenario.
