Hey DJS who knows this could be a play on words but I rather think I've made booboo! Before I posted this I was thinking is it pray or prey??? Serves me right for leaning on my own understanding I should have preyed - I mean prayed before posting this lol. 😁😂☺

Why is the GB so concerned with the well-being of the accused in matters of sexual abuse?

by paradisebeauty in

i'm reading some documents from the royal commission and i don't get it, why so much concern for the accused and his reputation???

i'm starting to think maybe some gb members have things like this in their past, because a normal human being would not take the side of a sexual predator over a child....united states branche x e c u t i v e o f f i c e sto watch tower societyaustraliagsc/as january 21, 1999 no.

176sit is understood that if the law requires elders to report cases of child abuse, they should complywith the law and do so.

I've just got off the phone with my mother. She related a story to me regarding a child abuser who was in her congregation, the child abuser had to appear in court and guess what? All the elders rallied around the abuser so the verdict was non proven!

This seams to be a systematic problem across the board the guilty party gets all the support whilst the innocent victim is told to shut up and stop causing trouble! We have to be mindful that most abusers are usually sociopathic narcissists who very good at playing people. They are very adept at playing the victim convincingly and have a knack at being in the right place at the right time. In other words, say a victim decides to quite rightly retaliate, you can be damb sure the abuser will have others within earshot so that the victim then looks and sounds like the abuser! This then gives the impression the victim is a trouble maker. Not only that, even approaching the elders on someone's bad behaviour can have the victim be labeled as a trouble maker. For the innocent party it's a lose lose situation which leaves the innocent party questioning themselves :(

So let's pretend we are doing the new Thursday night item that has replaced local needs. How has Jehovah helped you? (Translated you should be effing thankfull to us 7 men!)

I remember the COBE was doing a talk and he said before the meeting he could not get his tie to work properly (tie) so he said a prayer to jehovah and hey presto his tie miraculously tied properly! Even back then when I was still a fully paid up member I was thinking WTF!!!

So let's have your crazy comments then. Let the fun begin :)

Well the top news on jw.borg is a family being honoured for saving another family from a burning care. Propaganda at its worst!

No bad news jw.borg, only something that resembles a north Korean publicity agent with a gun at their head!

Will Vincent Toole speak the truth to the Royal commission?

by Splash in

vincent toole has a history of stating blatant untruths in order to protect the wt.. he is recorded as once saying that shunning was "a myth".. i wonder how linguistically pedantic will he get, and how much double-speak will he employ in order to defend the current wt policies.

my guess is he will try to twist the senior counsel in knots with wordy responses, in the hope they will simply run out of time.. if this fails then i'm expecting some howlers of deception..

Is there a part 5 in Spinks vs the commission?

I sent this to Angus Stewart this morning (Easter Standard Time)

by Viviane in

i just sent this email to angus stewart:.

i hope this email finds you well.

i would like to say thank you for your work on the royal commission, particularly in your handling of the jehovah's witnesses elders and experts during questioning.

This will motivate the commission so much. We can just see how much they are enjoying ripping apart the very fabric of the watchtower.

They certainly take no prisoner and don't fall for the watchtowers bullshit. How Angus and the crew could actually sit through all the watchtower junk I have no idea, it certainly takes a brave man to sit down and look through the jargon!

All this exposure is doing is showing the watchtower to be a high control dangerous cult. Impacted more today by the refusal of Jackson giving evidence.

I do feel actually making it public knowledge that Jackson didn't want to get involved was a deliberate move. This is due to the uncooperative nature of all the elders. The watchtower still think they are untouchable, they are finding out extremely fast that Australia don't take fools gladly.

Has anyone been in touch with the commission about Tool? It does seam the exJW community are being listened to be the commission so maybe a tip off to the commission could be advantageous; )
