  The trouble to the two witness exception of a female raped in a field is negated by Pauls counsel not to accept accusation against an elder unless there are two or three witnesses.

  http://biblehub.com/1_timothy/5-19.htm

  "Do not listen to an accusation against an elder unless it is confirmed by two or three witnesses." (1 Tim. 5:19, NLT)
  

  But Jackson seems to say that the circumstances are yet another witness. Never heard it put that way before. But this just goes to show how their interpretation can make just about any verse mean whatever they want it to mean.

  2007 Awake mentions Child Abuse in Australia!

  by SG098 in

  2. child-abuse

  in the october 2007 awake!

  page 11, the b0rg had the audacity to say this concerning child sexual abuse: "sadly, though, most of such [child abuse] crimes go unpunished by authorities today.

  in australia, for example, it has been estimated that only 10 percent of offenders are prosecuted, and few are convicted.

  Just another case of "por la boca muere el pez", their own mouth kills them. They can't help themselves. They just love to stick their proverbial foot in the bucket.

  Well, let them reap the rewards of the governments looking into their dirty laundry and exposing it to the world to see. The WT is nothing but a bunch of charlatans accusing others of the sins they themselves are trying hard to keep under wraps--white washed graves, painted white in the outside but inside are full of skeletons and decay.

  I'm sure the Order of worldwide Bethel workers has the same statistics of chronic masturbators if not even higher.

  Can JWs be police in Australia?

  by Larrikin in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  hi everyone, i'm new here, i've been following the rc reports, and i was hoping you could help, my question is are jw allowed to be police, i heard the jws saying in one report with enthusiasm that they had jw in the policeforce.

  and would there be any conflict from the force with any of their teaching, that would be contrary to duties..

  Yeah, I caught that too. There's no way that a JW can be a police officer. I would mean taking a non-neutral stance. You would be given six months to find another job or be disfellowshipped.

  Thanks for the pic, Splash!

  I just posted the photoshopped photo above on facebook.

  Within seconds I've got seven likes and one comment saying they love it and where is it at. I responded it's in the September 2015 Watchower issue. I didn't expect all the positive attention from loyal JW's. Wow!

  I wonder how many likes I'll get on the photo by the time they start placing the issue.

  Bumbling idiots..... RC & JW broadcast

  by snare&racket in

  1. jw
  2. friends

  one of the contributing factors to me leaving was the realisation we were being led by idiots.

  bethel life reinforced that, middle aged ego's trying to suck up to brooklyn.

  ray franz book was a final nail for me, because he described the same incompetence along with the same ego's.

  The teletubby Gobbering Body videos are showing them up as a bunch of anal retentive, badly informed and menial minded tyrants, lording it over 8 million people they expect to follow their every pronouncement unblinkingly.

  The GB 1.0 knew when to keep silent, and not be seen to much. This bunch in the GB 2.0 don't know when to shut up and love the limelight. I believe they'll open up a lot of eyes and waking minds with their new mix of Mormon/Scientology/Televangelist inspired programming.

  Requested to have all the shepherding concerns in writing.

  i have not turned in a single field service report this year.

  i decided not to, after noticing the simple flaw in the calculation of 1914. the implications are huge, i.e the appointment of the fds is a fraud.

  i some days ago informed them of the private watchtower documents that are in my possession courtesy of the royal commission.

  "gone legal"

  I love it! They know that Momma WT isn't going to back them up on any local case of the elders following procedures that have been laid down by the GB/FDS/WT hierarchy blowing up in the elders' faces.

  Anything "legal" may mean monetary expenses and possible payouts. It hits the WT where it really hurts.
