To the OP, I agree with your suspicion. I will also say that aging isn't for sissies. Take some quiet time, meditate and strategize. No rush. Much love and support here, so take heart.

Nothing there is an improvement over the WT. Thats dissapointing . The only redemptive thing is he admitted it, didn't blame anyone else and apologized. OH they aren't criticizing those who exposed it. That is better than JW way of turning it on those who expose their wrongdoing.

I was once a JW kid that wanted to please Jehovah. But even without the heavy handed money grubbing currently in place, I recognized the lack of real charity going on when school had food drives and I got the speech about how little time was left and how worthless it is to help needy people. Those little Sofia's will turn into teenagers and have a built in excuse to begin questioning EVERYTHING. And they will. There will be a missing generation. This may do more damage than 1975, ultimately. Here's hoping!

They are paying and guilty. Punitive damages would be nice, but that was an error in the tactics of the legal team. WT is still legally in the wrong,no putting thAt genie back in the bottle.

I think it has just been affirmed as there has been no appeal. So its finally done. I might be wrong.

i watched this video and i have to say that this guy really creeps me out.

Applewaite looks weirder, like an actual alien, even in repose. But Lett is weirder to watch while speaking and to listen to. Applewaites content was weirder.

“We are not done yet!” – Candace Conti reacts to appeal court decision

by Watchtower-Free in

http://jwsurvey.org/cedars-blog/we-are-not-done-yet-candace-reacts-to-appeal-court-decision.

candace conti (pictured in her interview with abc) has spoken out for the first time about the appeal court decision.

as current and former jehovahs witnesses digest the news that watchtowers appeal against the candace conti verdict has faltered, albeit with the punitive element of the judgment reversed, candace has reacted for the first time by telling me: we are not done yet.. news spread on monday that the state appeals court in san francisco had upheld the $2.8 million compensatory damages in the original june 2012 verdict, but overturned the $8.6 million punitive award against watchtower.. the court decided that, though watchtower had neglected its responsibility to supervise known pedophile jonathan kendrick in field ministry, a church-sponsored activity, the organization had no duty to warn parents in the congregation that a pedophile was in their midst or report him to authorities.. an insightful report by investigative reporter trey bundy has suggested that the court reached its decision because the precedent set by the conti verdict might be too burdensome to enforce.. the burden would be considerable because the precedent could require a church to intervene whenever it has reason to believe that a congregation member is capable of doing harm, and the scope of that duty could not be limited with any precision, the judges wrote.. candaces attorney rick simons responded by pointedly telling bundy: they think in public policy terms that theres too much risk in broadening the churchs responsibility and liability so that it burdens what churches do.

A reliable and trustworthy financial advisor is a good idea (local credit union might be a good idea, combined with a recommended lawyer.)

Its a problem (the money part) that wouldn't be so bad to have except that statistically, it often isn't a long term boon.
