hisclarkness: "i believe it was from the vogue interview that specifically covered her wedding a month or so ago where she made the statement about being raised but never getting serious about it."
Thanks, hisclarkness! I'll look it up. I was wondering if she recently starting suffering from new parent guilt. I have seen several people do that. They have a baby and then all of the decide, they feel like they need to decide on a religion.
so i shared a facebook video from newsbroke with my wife.
you many agree or disagree with the points made in the video.
please, don't make this about that.
I love your methods to get her to think.
but how??????

Hisclarkness ... what is the basis for your assumption that her quotes are from 2002? This article seems to be a recent interview. Also, can you provide a link of her quote last months saying she was raised in it?
Crazyguy ... yes, that is correct.
but how??????

the following article was printed in todays "daily record", for those interested:.

At the Jehovah's Witness Watchtower UK headquarters, spokesman Paul Gillies said: "We have strict procedures and guidelines that matters like this should go straight to the secular authorities.
Wait .... WHAT??????? How can so many falsehoods be stated in so few sentences? WOW.
it has been sickening to read the most recently leaked documents by faithleaks.
it makes me so angry because so many of us have experienced first hand the horrible policies of the watchtower on abuse.
i feel like these documents are finally the smoking gun we have all been hoping to expose the watchtower, and so far, the only mainstream news that i have seen pick it up is newsweek.. what will it take for the mainstream media pick this up and give it the attention it deserves?
Another way I thought it draw attention is in the political realm. Politicians love to hang their hat on the right cause. Personally, I think there should be mandatory reporting in EVERY state, and the clergy should not be exempt from reporting any abuse involving children. This is an issue that I think even members of mainstream religion could hang their hat on. I think there could be a case made that not reporting abuse could violate a child's right to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness, so no one should be exempt from it.
some of my old jw friends are sickly and getting on in age.
so far, i’ve only gone to my mother’s memorial and have avoided the kingdom hall altogether.... your thoughts please?.
I was talked into doing that a few years back. It was horrible. I swore I would never do it again. (unless it was a family member)

What is so frustrating is that the world doesn't know who any of these small groups are until a huge tragedy happens, like in the case of the Waco Davidians or the Applewhite group (can't remember their name). I hate that the tragedy has to be on such a large scale before the world pays attention.
I think the alarming number of hidden abuse cases, and the alarming way they instruct their members to handle abuse is a tragedy worthy of attention.
The world doesn't agree.

What will it take for the mainstream media pick this up and give it the attention it deserves? It is still early, so I am holding out hope. Come on, main stream media! Don't let me down!

I've been reading them. I'm on the third one and my blood is boiling. How has this kind of policy been allowed to continue for so long?
