  Do You Know Any “Gay” Jehovah’s Witnesses?

  by minimus in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  of course the religion condemns homosexuality but did you know any gay witnesses?

  i knew some bethelites that were very effeminate and i remember 4 women who were suspected of being lesbians by many in the congregation.

  they eventually moved away and were very vocal against males, especially elders..

  The Netherlands: Minister for Legal Protection wants Jehovah's Witnesses to conduct an independent investigation of sexual abuse

  by jochie in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  meanwhile in the netherlands:minister dekker: jehovah's witnesses must review abuse policyin order to protect children better against abuse, the jehovah's witnesses must look back on catholics, according to minister dekker.

  but abuse victims think that this approach will not work.. minister sander dekker for legal protection wants the jehovah's witnesses to conduct an independent investigation of sexual abuse within the community, just like the catholic church.

  this is stated in a letter he sent this week to the parliamentary committee for justice and security.

  I read a lot of scepptic reactions.
  
  Would you expect a gorvernment minsister of The Netherlands know whats going around the rest of the world in relation to sexual abuse in the Witness comunity?
  
  This is just a start!. I am the chairman of the Reclaimed Voices foundation and we will certainly be heatd by the minister. In this hearing we will refer to the ARC reports.
  
  Government officials are not trained to see the double speech of the Wachtower society, so there is a task for us here.
