REVIEW OF JCS "BIG NEWS" ARTICLE

by Oroborus21 in

note: the catholic molestation cases have mostly been evaluated under employment law theories not the tort of misrepresentation or under non-fraud related tort claims]; fails to address important legal considerations such as standing and statute of limitations; and finally and most importantly, the essay fails to address in any meaningful way the inevitable constitutional arguments that would be raised by opposing (watchtower) counsel.

supreme court justices do not have the time to browse through law journals and the implication that they would be interested in an essay is even more deceptive.

the society does not cite a 1960 study as evidence that blood transfusions are hazardous.. here is the actual quotation in context:.

1) Would somebody who is a moderator please fix Page 1 of this thread so people can read it?

2) I resent the swipes taken by Eduardo at both Kerry and Barb. It was disgusting how you would try to flavour your intial comments with shots at Kerry's publisher, her background and Barb's notice. I for one think this is a big time event that a lot of people put a lot of effort into including medical doctors and legal counsel who peer reviewed the work before it was published. For you to go after Kerry and Barb the way you did in this thread in your initial post was disgusting.

3) Everyone in Canada has the right to a fundemental belief in religion and conscience. But, the belief has to be a honest belief and it must be in good faith.

4) The Essay provides an excellent legal start to bring out what is corrupt with the WTS's so-called blood therapy ban. And it is all out there in the public eye and yes the media is taking notice. The Essay provides a legal theory that may work in certain circumstances. It not only takes apart the references relied upon by the WTS in a phamplet but also goes after other aspects of the doctrine that are corrupt.

5) Each case that comes forward will have to be indivudally reviewed on its merrits. You might think on the face we have a case of belief where no court can go. But, the article gives some good thought that someone in a position of authority for the Corporation knowingly or should ought to have known that they were publishing misleading statements (or in some cases not publishing or reporting any statements on recent changes to the doctrine that caused someone harm) to the Flock in an attempt to support the corporation's ever-changing blood therapy doctrine.

6) FWIW, I stand by Barb Anderson and thank her for her hard work in bringing this out.

More importantly, a few of us did a lot of reseach on this. Mad Apostate and me did the following threads that you should read and make yourself very familar with. They are as follows:

http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/11/27169/1.ashx

http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/11/21916/1.ashx

The article is found in the Watchtower magazine of June 1, 1991 pages 15-20 and is titled Their Refuge-A Lie!

The threads also provides information on another article that is found in the Watchtower magazine Dec 1, 1976, page 711 article -"Can an Image Bring Peace and Security".

We also provide you links to the scanned original Muller essay that brings the whole 1991 article into context.

You might also want to link to Hooberus' thread http://www.jehovahs-witness.com/11/55894/1.ashx on the library card defence.

You might also want to click here http://www.geocities.com/osarsif/un.htm . My essay (which needs a little updating) sometimes is not availabe due to the number of people using the site. Besides my essay you have links to the various scanned documents including the forms they had to fill out and the Awake! aticles.

The ruling was made by a "Worker's Compensation Law Judge", according to the article.

Does that mean it was tried in a "normal" court, or is there a special setting for Worker's Comp issues?

In Canada it would means it was heard as a hearing before a Board in a quasi-court like setting. The Board has rules posted on its web site as how it will hear evidence etc. Usually they are not as official as Court would be but most of the Civil Court rules would apply.

If memory serves, in Canada (anyway) and depending on the Board, a Board decision can be subject to appeal to the Court or the Board decisions are subject to a judicial review by the Court.

That's like going to McDonald's and spilling hot coffee on yourself and then blaming McDonald's...oh wait...I guess that can be done, huh?

No that is not what this is about. This is about a person who was defined by a Judge as an employee/agent of a corporation, and while working for the corporation she became injuried as a result of doing an activity on the corporation's time clock.

It's just as if while working for my employer, the Government in Ontario, I got injuried due to a fall while on the job while walking outside on the slipery parking lot.

However, instead of suing the company's a$$ off, the law requires the injuried person to be paid compensation through a state or provincial worker compensation plan. These plans, which are considered insurance plans, are paid by corporations who must pay a prescribed premium according to the law. If you don't pay the premium you could be heavily fined.

The key to this case is the Judge determined that the person is actually an employee of the corporation (WTS) and the religious volunteer exemption in the Statute does not apply to this particular case.
