  Judge sanctions WTS - $4k per day penalty for not producing sex abuse documents

  judge sanctions jehovah's witnesses.

  imposes $4000-a-day penalty for not producing documents in sex-abuse case.

  by dorian hargrove, june 24, 2016. a san diego superior court judge has ordered the church of jehovah's witnesses, also known as the watchtower bible and tract society of pennsylvania, to pay $4000 a day for every day that it fails to produce documents requested in a civil lawsuit brought by former parishioner, osbaldo padron, who claims a church elder sexually abused him when he was seven years old.. in a june 23 ruling, expected to be made final today, judge richard strauss admonished the church for willfully ignoring a court order to produce all documents associated with a 1997 body of elders letter that church leaders sent to parishes around the world in a quest to learn about sexual abuse of children by church leaders.. over the course of the past year, the watchtower society and its lawyers have fought hard to keep the letter confidential, claiming that turning over the documents would infringe on the privacy of those mentioned in the letter that were not associated with the case.. in march 2015, the church turned over a heavily redacted version of the letter.

  Hello,

  If I understand correctly

  - The victim might be asked to sign a statement according he/she is aware of the possibility to report to the authorities.

  The victim now will be informed that he/she could report the crime to the authority but how a young victims can understand that. If in the same time, Elders say "you must forgive" and when young victim is alone before elder. It seems to me that the WT and GB want to protect them from new prosecution. They could they "victim signs she/he is aware of his possibility to reporting to the authority" but at the same time they acts to force victims to not report by forgive pressure.

  The look like bulgaria and blood policies .. jw are not "disfellowed" by Organisation, but if they accept blood they disfellow themself from Organisation.

  I don't know if you understand my poor english

  Hello,

  The little frenchy answer :) ( sorry for my poor english ) . I'm jw on the paper. since I discover all problems inside de Watchtower. I'm always in congregation, but my only way is the Bible and not the Watchtower and GB """truth""""
  

  Are you baptized ? if no ... that would be simple ... You can continue to see your """friends""" from congregation. without continue to assists all assembly or reunion or publishing ( I stop to publish ... now since 6 month )
  

  But, one question ... Are they really friends if they make a condition as "stay with jw" to continue friendship ?

  It seems to me they are not really friends, but only interested people ! Only that was very strange and curious manner.

  I am sure outside jw you can find real friends ... but it is only your own fear that stops you to approach other people ... read your first sentence "I'm a 30 something blind woman" ...

  I read somebody , who excuses to be a little different ... you are EXACTLY as the other with your particularity you are blind ... you are just different like someone can be redhead , or , black .. today disable people are "PEOPLE" before be "disable"

  Be confident to you !

  30 it's the beginning of life !

  Youre life is on your hand .. but you must accept sometime to suffer , the "jw" protection is a fake ... they want to use you and abuse you.

  Be free !

  2. child-abuse

  just popped on to see if december broadcast was up and it's not.. however, there is a new vid of bro.

  morris addressing child abuse within the org.. https://tv.jw.org/#en/video/vodstudio/pub-jwban_201507_2_video.

  Hello,

  Yes this video is old ... but what I see when I loot at this video is Morris is a liar

  remember some facts

  https://tv.jw.org/#en/video/VODProgramsEvents/pub-jwbmw_201502_5_VIDEO
  
  

  https://tv.jw.org/#fr/video/VODStudio/pub-jwb_201507_1_VIDEO

  each video are , 2015 video ... but

  Trials Conti and Lopez was in 2012 and 2015

  We have to the declaration of Gerrit Lösch in june 2014

  http://www.alameda.courts.ca.gov/Pages.aspx/Criminal-Record-Requests

  http://courtindex.sdcourt.ca.gov/CISPublic/casedetail?casenum=201200099849&casesite=SD&applcode=C
  
  then I see Lett and Morris as liars ..

  because they declares pedophiles are lies of apostates and opponent ( Lett ) and Morris pedophiles are from gays ... after this 2 trials ... 1 years after they pay 20 millions $ !!!!

  They know that.
  

  Another thing I see ... and it's a shame on jw the refuse to see these.

  Jackson passed before CRA ... with "1006 pedophiles cases" ...

  Then the video on tv.jw.org in first page ... tells me "Authorities we , jw and GB , we f**k you"

  That say Watchtower will not change ... they are going "headlong rush" ( sorry I don"t know the real terms )

  by notsurewheretogo in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the statement in the article "who is leading gods people today?

  " in the feb 17th study edition of the wt is very interesting.. it states: ""the g.b.

  is neither inspired nor infallible" ..we can err .in doctrinal matters....".

  Hello,

  And , if simply this article is here because of pedophilia problems ?

  I explain, since 2 or 3 months I heard in KH that "the end is near" , and that "Real Believers" ( JW ) will be more and more prosecuted by satan...

  If this "GB are not perfect" will prepare JW to listen that the Organisation have problems and many millions of dollars of donation dissapear in Trials ...

  Just another mean for GB to avoid assuming their reponsabilities ?

  Comparing WT Library - 2011 vs. 2012

  by MeanMrMustard in

  1. watchtower
  2. bible

  a couple of years ago, i participated in a thread on this site comparing the old nwt (1984) to the new nwt (2013).

  i was able to produce a nwt mash up pdf showing the side-by-side differences between the two versions of the nwt.

  herethis site claims it will hold the file for download for a long time.

  Hello,

  Great Work :) thank you ... I'm interested by the code ... some years ago I've tried to decrypt file ( pub file from WT )to do same work in french.

  Another Idea will be comparing between different language ... WT lib and Jw.org ...

  and another one will be to compare through time the content of jw.org ... for example I remember a publication with rama singh false citation ... this publication disapear from jw.org ... and on the CD produce after this .. """"correction"""" jw can say "WT never says that your are liars" ... ( in fact I have save the two pdf )

  I believe it's not really encrypted but in fact it's a file specific file format some mix of indexed file and compression

  Hello,

  As for other thing ... are we sure that the figure printed in the wt magazine are correct ?

  At the other hand, when WT produced 2 WT and 2 Awake by month each with 32 pages at more than 40 millions of printed magazines ...

  now with 6 WT and 6 awake , each with 16 pages ... even with 60 millions ... it's an amazing decrease ...

  But WTBTS , talk about "increase" only because figure are false !

  Often I heard in KH , that jw.org replace publication ... but in fact when you look at Alexa Web Ranking ... we see other thing ... no increase at jw.org ... stagnation ( is it an english word ? stagnation ? sorry for my poor english :) )

  All that , to say ... are WTBTS figure real ? I doubt !

  Science my son and I.

  by The Rebel in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  a recent o.p origins of the universe bought home to me with ovbious clarity that i have no scientific background.

  this realization was rather embarrassing for myself to admit, particularly as my child of 11 has began asking some rather intersting questions on scientific matters.

  anyway i have subscribed to " scientific america" because i find it a great magazine for those with no scientific background.

  Hello,

  I would write "Scientific American" ?

  Sorry I'm french :( :) If it was , then I can say Scientific American is a reference. And for french only speaker we have "Pour la Science" who is the translation if this journal.

  I love two version :) French and American. Great quality :)

  It's a good begining to explore today Science. But sometimes you will need to have background then I think a good advice will be seeing Show like "Cosmos" Carl Sagan or the new of Neil Tyson de Grace.

  You have too some books like feynman , Sagan ... for physics , Monod , Jacob for Biology ...

  National Geographic Channel on TV is good too :)
