i didn't see all of panorama, but what i did see was outstanding.
in its depth and thoroughness, it surpassed what dateline had to offer.
it really highlighted some key points: .
Welcome to the board Stewart !
I went out with a girl from the Haslingden congregation and know quite a few JW's in that area. And I know the incident you've spoken about. It's 10 years since I left - maybe we know each other.
The paedophile in question got reinstated and to my knowledge still goes to meetings and out on the work.

, i am sick in the stomach.
Rachel - Welcome to the board!
I just wondered if you think Panorama tells lies and deceives the public in all its programmes or did it just this once to discredit the Watchtower Society?
here's the addy, go to forum section pronto!

englishman.
Just listened to the discussion.
Bill Bowen said he tried for a year internally to change the WTS child abuse policy but hit a brick wall. He said the only way to get the WTS to change anything was to damage its public image and its money supply.
please refer to the following.

begin with daniel peterson's evidences for the book of mormon.
QUANTUM - I'd just like to thank you with all my heart!
Before you started posting I only had 2 reasons never to join the Mormons. The first was the two Mormons who knocked on my door about a year ago. When I asked one why he thought god created the dinosaurs he replied it was so we could have oil! The second reason was The Osmonds - a demon inspired group if ever there was one.
Now I have a third reason - YOU. If your purpose was to put people off the LDS then you have succeeded. I will never even listen to one word if they call again.
Once again, many thanks - and keep up the good work.
i went to the ex-mormon board that amazing referenced in his thread.

it is fascinating!
I think Quantum's here because he's sick of having his arse kicked on ex-Mormon sites and thought he'd try his luck here.
Quantum the annoying.
this last sunday we had the evolution/creation talk.
it was hard to sit there and take that load of crap.
its funny because the night before i looked up a lot of evolution info at different schools on the web so the arguments were fresh in my mind.
flooding the planet would be an easy task explaining the location of animal remains on the high peaks of mountain ranges around the world
Ravingferret - you don't need to consider going back - you're there already. By the way which animals are we talking about, elephants, fish or what?
i was just thinking and wondering,what do you think would happen if the wts admitted to child molestation in the organization?how do you think they would spin it off,do you think they would try to find some other "biblical" explanation?with all the instances of the wts getting involved with "the world",such as investing in questionable companies,the u.n. scandal and so on do you think there would be that much outcry from the members around the world?i'm interested in everyone's thoughts on this,i personally feel that the more coverage the wts gets on child molestation the less they will be able to deny it and eventually they will have to admit to something.give me your thoughts and opinions on the subject.
Simon - you're spot on. They never take the blame but simply pass it on to the rank and file.
They're just digging themselves deeper and deeper into the shit.

My faves the 'Ram's head' picture in the Live Forever book.
Some of the eighties perms in that book are quite scary too.

Nice monk !
i have family that lives in the uk and they told me that adverts are already running for sunday's installment dealing with the jw coverup.
unfortunately, because i have been labeled an apostate by everyone, they quick stopped themselves before telling me about the content, stating that i really didn't need to hear it.. has anyone seen these ads?
what do they say about the content of the show?
Englishman,
Whoever organised this has put the biggest nail in the UK WTS coffin to date and deserves complete admiration.
Well done.
