Annnd, here we also have the fruitage of lack of higher education. Dino is sadly ill equipped to deal with the complexities life, and quite representative of the thousands currently in positions of oversight.
The severity of the issues is completely lost on him, and he doesn't seem to have a clue. He is well suited to a cult.

The elder had to use the "silver sword" to swear in for his testimony.
They look like the nutjobs they are.
Like was said somewhere, I think some of the elders will see what the whole world sees, and finally understand just "following orders" doesn't stand up anymore, there is a right thing to do...especially in regards to these abuse cases. The automatic response to protect the perp and his family at the cost of a victim is hideous.
i just heard this a few minutes ago by a jw friend who is still an elder in my old hall.
the kingdom hall i used to attend and my mom still attends was paid off many years ago and serves about 6 congregations.
one of the english congregations has a lot of financially well of members.
That's great news! I hope this happens in more and more congregations.
Again, this is a corporation and all decisions are made for the benefit of the corporation and to ensure its existence.
earlier this week i bumped into a couple of jws who i recognised from the cult cart.
a few months ago i had a long conversation with him one of them and found him to be quite friendly.
he is new to the area in the years since i left.. this time he was very defensive and said he wasn't allowed to talk to me.
Wow.
I do believe it is what punk says, more of a defensive reaction. That being said, it is reflective of the mindset of the corporation that is revealed when you read court documents. It doesn't matter how many cute videos they put out, or how many times the creepy GB says "WE LOOOOVE children," they couldn't care less about them.

(I like to call him "the most dangerous apostate I know.)
Wishing you a Very Hap Hap Happy Birthday Randy! xoxox
so i was seating at the meeting this past sunday.
the latest wt article to be studied speaks of "using our imagination" to think about the blessings of the kingdom.
the whole study was centered around how we can, and should, spent time visualizing ourselves in the new world, working along with our brothers.
They have to now play the emotion card. They didn't have to in the past because the ministry was more fruitful/rewarding. The field is dry and not interested in the least and they've had to evolve that effort to keep people somehow linked into their concept of preaching. But it is not personally rewarding standing by a trolley only talking to your mate.
Personal knowledge of doctrine and the Bible is downplayed and obedience is all that is required, The "carrot" of the paradise is really strong and the only thing they really have to offer.
