  What would happen if the WTS admits to coverup

  by obiwan in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  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.

  that's a good question............. maybe when the gov body and all their lawyers are in jail, for conspiracy,........ they can think about it for a while........ sorta like when rutherford was thrown in jail......... and he dreamed up a scheme to convince his followers it was rev 11: 7-10......... maybe they can call it new light, and use those same verses again.

  We need a little controversy !

  it is always interesting to note the blasphemy and the be-littling of higher powers.

  how dare you all question god?

  how dare you all think that with your puny little brains you have conquered the mysteries and understandings of life?

  hi lucidentity,

  it seems more like the gov body, and their organization is the one trying to prove god is wrong...... they don't believe deut 18:20, or matt 24:24.

  they can try to act like their disfellowshipping is a loving arrangement from god, and they are god's organization,....yet their actions prove that their disfellowshipping persons, is not to bring members back to god.......... it's to seriouly mess up their lives........ cause they are no longer wanted, or loved.

  look what i found... http://www.watchtower.org/library/g/1993/10/8a/article_01.htm how hypocritical.

  you know.. like my mother taught me, if you are going to be a burgler, be the best there is.

  if you are going to be anything, be the best there is, so if the wtc is going to be crooked, then be as crooked as you can be.

  that's great stuff to use on the gov body's lawyers, when they try to discredit the victims in court, saying that they are not credible, because of all the problems they have......... there it is, in their own publications, explaining that child abuse victims often have trouble with drug abuse, alchohol, running away, depression, suicide, promiscuity........

  The WTS Two 'Credible' Witness Policy.......

  by ISP in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  below is an excerpt from the branch letter to all congregations.. 'thus, although they investigate every allegation, the elders in not authorized by the scriptures to take congregational action unless there is a confession or there are two credible witnesses'.

  it reaffirms the two witness policy.no surprise there...... but why does it say 'credible'?

  witnesses are witnesses are they not?

  i agree with most of the stuff pathofthorns said,............ except in my opinion it is not because the elders are not professionals that they silence victims.............. it's because the elders are loyal to the gov body, and to each other......... and the gov body guides them to promote the organization, instead of justice.......... handing over child abusers get's media attention, costs them money, donations, and makes the organization look like what it really is, ....... they would rather silence victims, and claim they are god's true organization....... no rules that get imposed on the gov body will ever change that.......... they will always silence victims as long as they have the money and power to control the congregations.

  gov body, don't you think you should pray for heidi meyer?

  shouldn't you be thanking god that she came forward, and is willing to help others who have also been abused?............

  you know, it might help if you pray for your lawers to loose in court..... that way matt 18:6 will happen faster....

  silentlambs: silent no more!!!.

  published as a joint venture by houghten mifflin and del rey books, this moving narrative of the multi-national efforts of united group of jehovah's witnesses, non-jehovah's witnesses, and former jehovah's witnesses to change long-standing child abuse policy of the 120 year-old religious corporation, watchtower bible and tract society.

  in the late 1800's a man named charles taze russell undertook to establish a printing company with volunteer workers.

  Possible changes forced by Dateline..?

  by kikisdragon in

  2. child-abuse

  my best friend told me today that her cousin (l) who is a jw (although an immoral, poor excuse for a mother jw) called her to tell her that two elders stopped by her house this morning to inform her that her (recent) husband had molested an 8 year old girl in the past.

  (do not know how recently) .

  what i'm curious about is if this is an individual occurance, or if this is happening around the country.

  ever notice the progression of the jw cult over the last 120 yrs?.......... every time there is a scandal, and a policy change and new light, the cult disfellowships opposers, and gets more controlling and more wicked.....

  the reason it's a pedophile paradise right now, is because well meaning brothers have been refining the cult ever since it started.......... the cult is getting more and more wicked every day.

  right about now, pedophiles are so mad, and scared, they are silencing children with extra harsh measures........ some children might even disappear........
