Fresia you are quite nugatory.
I find your posts far to bipolar to be taken seriously.
My questions to the so caled scholar simply calls his position in the WT to account.
I challenge his sign off, that is "WT Scholar".
He cannot claim such a title without being one.
If he is not yet claims such a title he is either presumptuous or a mountebank.
Let the scraper come to me.

Scholar, the most ubiquitous of posters.
One could almost conclude you are a posse, indeed the amount of self lionizing you participate in almost proves it.
Whether you are one, or many I find you quite an irascible and boastful bully.
One wonders however, are you an indolent witness or do you set the lead as a "pillar" of the congregation.
Has the congregation bestowed any title on you or are you a self appointed "Scholar"?
This question is only asked in order to establish your "spiritual maturity".
Are you a "gift in Men"? Are you an appointed member of the servant body?
For if the answer is no, one must conclude that the Watchtower does not approve of you and finds you somewhat malapropos?

Fresia,
You are now doing the three step, Minimise, Justify, Shift.
1. minimise
"No one said their wasn't SOME truth"
2. Justify
"they are not mind readers"
3. Shift.
"We don't know the circumstances of it all."
The WT has created a flawed internal justice system based partly on Mosaic law and partly misapplied NT scriptures, as a DIRECT result they have created an environment whereby evil humans can "hide".
RS was one such man, he is now in Jail and convicted of child abuse.
He moved from congreagtion A to congregation B abusing multiple boys along the way, no one said a thing until it was too late. This is an old story I know but not unique.
He was privately reproved confidentially and re offended before someone had the strength to go to the police.
Now the WT cannot be responsible for the child abuse, RS is, but he was indirectly protected by a flawed internal justice system.
If you cannot see that it is you that has been blinded by Satan. -

Hello again,
I have read through all of the posts.
If you took offence, you should not have. I simply asked the question, if the question challenged you, that is your doing.
Vercingetorix was one of the most successful leaders to challenge the Romans, unlike other military leaders he did not try to fight Rome as Rome would like to be fought.
A lot can be learnt from this.
We cannot fight the WT as they would like us to. They are well trained at propaganda so when we bring up doctinal or cultural flaws, they are simply side stepped, job done.
The society has two achilles heals.
1. 1919.
2. Growth figures.
These two points are now all that matter, they are like book ends, any books in between can change but whilst the numbers increase the WT screams " Rich Blessings from Jehovah" and while ever the RF beleive that in 1919 Jesus chose them, they are untouchable.
I propose a purposeful and concentrated global campaign to attack these two points, the rest is educational, interesting but ineffective on the whole.
Who's in?
We are at war. -

fresia,
You employ the tactics of most politicians, that is NNPP
Neutralize the negative, promote the positive.
The WT society has recently changed their policy and now it is in line with that of the current policy of the catholic church and most secular organizations. FACT.
I have been in many congregations where abuse was covered over by elders acting on instruction and whilst in BETHEL witnessed the way it was handled in the legal department.
I have seen elders encourage others to say nothing to protect the reputation of the WT.
This is not apostate propaganda, it is fact.
I have seen it, have you?
We are at war.
You are my enemy. -

Scholar,
I know you, but you dont know me.
With out giving too much away, you would be better of leaving Leo alone and working on your marriage.
All due respect and all.
I have been reading your retorts for years and I am yet to be convinced by your posts.
Your not an official WT "Scholar" your a tradesman that did a BA majoring in religious studies and from what I hear, trying to get through his masters.
Whilst I respect your opinion, you are far too quick to congratulated yourself.
If you must kick the tyres research before hand. -

I was reform and I want the GB to admit they have it wrong.
Where do we start?
