  Jehovah's Witnesses have enough legitimate issues that need addressing. There is no need to make up sensationalized, ridiculous stories.

  I can't get over the beginning ...

  "I didn't read the letter because it was really long and had lots of words". <--- paraphrasing.

  Were they trying to portray those two elders as complete doofuses?

  I found it! Here is the link if anyone else wants to read it. https://www.vogue.com/article/serena-williams-pregnancy-vogue-september-issue-2017

  I read it and cringed. It sounds like she might want to go hard core now and is trying to convert her muslim-raised husband. She actually used a JW phrase that made me want to throw up a little bit ... "takes the lead"!

  Talking about her (then) fiancee, Alexis Ohanian:

  “He’s extremely smart but not a know-it-all. He’s curious about what he doesn’t know. Being a Jehovah’s Witness is important to me, but I’ve never really practiced it and have been wanting to get into it. Alexis didn’t grow up going to any church, but he’s really receptive and even takes the lead. He puts my needs first.”

  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.

  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.

  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.

  Come on, Mainstream Media!

  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.
