  One of the most important questions.

  it is enthralling having everything being dragged kicking and screaming into the light of day.

  however one of the most important things to ask is this:.

  is the rc evidence admissable in other countries and other courts?.

  IF it is, then no future child abuse case could be defended. This would destroy the org.

  Is the two-witness rule really unreasonable?

  i'm picturing a situation in which a savvy 12 year old doesn't like the house rules that mom's new husband has put into place.

  or something along that line.

  i can certainly agree that protection of children is paramount, but who protects the real victim in those cases?

  In theory it could be open to abuse by an accuser who has ill intent.

  However in cases of child abuse, when 99% of victims are truthful, why punish 99% for the sake of a theoretical 1%?

  And as said above, the police are in the best position to determine the validity of claims, NOT the Elders.

  Sorry that they are navel gazing, just open your eyes! All the evidence used in the Public hearing is posted on the website. Hundreds of letters to the branch and elders, and best of all, the Shepherd the Flock book. All from a trustworthy and non "apostate" source.

  I have been threatened by my devout family in a round about sort of way. I have had a bad time due to what I can only say is.........fear of facts. I don't feel so good right now.

  Dissent on JW-Archive

  in the posts about the australian royal commission there have been several references to discussions on jw-archive.

  i'd not heard of that site, so checked it out.

  it seems to be used by many active jws - its tumblr style archive is full of pictures of jws doing their thing.

  It is so good that the Average Joe on the street can know more about the .Org than most witnesses now due to the Shepherd the Flock being in the public domain now. (from a non "apostate" source)

  The very system laid out by the .Org is on trial. DO NOT let them get away with brushing it off as a few nasty cases.

  Day 2, part 1

  Straight away the inquiry picks up from yesterday. Asking Doug Jackson, showing him from the Elders' Book how the things he is saying are lies.

  1000 alleged abusers in Australia

  If you look at the averages in the yearly statistics you get this: Worldwide average is 7,867,958 dubs in 115,416 congs. So, an average of 68 per congregation.

  In Australia there are 66,484 Dubs, meaning a guesstimate of around 1,000 Congregations... One Offender for each Cong!

  At 49 min on-wards The Ex-co Gets absolutely owned by the questioner.

  Asking about how victims didn't know anything about the JC procedure, yet elders do.

  At 101min onwards The questioner nails the Ex-CO to the KS10 book. Shows that he had been lying for the previous 5min about victims accusing the pedo.
