  Did you hear that!? His Honour is insisting that Jackson attend the Royal Commission

  by umbertoecho in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  i actually started clapping at that point, as his honour explained to the wt type creep sycophantic slithery lawyer that........" i understand that we all have issues to face in life and .....that is a part of life...........however it has become obvious that this man ....is in such a position to assist with this investigation.....".

  it boils down to the fact that stewart outright accused the latest witness of misleading the royal commission and this lead to some document searches which led his honour to conclude that they had been protecting mr jackson.

  this was a warm and fluffy moment folks.................brilliant stuff!!!!!

  A question to ask about the two witness rule for reporters or the RC

  by scary21 in

  someone posted about this not long ago but i could not find it.. in deut.23:25-27 it talks about the girl being raped in the field, and no one is around to help her.

  she is not to be put to death .. she did not sin.. the man is to be put to death.

  how can he be put to death on her word alone ?

  It's not so much what Deuteronomy 17:6; 19:15 or 22:25 -27 says but what's found in the Greek Scriptures/NT at 2 Corinthians 13:1 and Matthew 18:16 etc.

  Quite often when there's a picture of the Gobbering Body for their meeting Sanderson is the one with the "tech". Have you noticed that?

  I'm guessing Sanderson was brought on board for his new tech ideas, either that or once he was on board, started advocating new tech as a way out of their overlapping stagnation, either way, I've got a feeling he had much to do with the re-branding of the WT to JW.0rg.

  My thoughts on Geoffrey Jackson

  by thedepressedsoul in

  first off, i don't think that dude is going to show face.

  he's most likely on a plane already.

  if he shows it's bad pr and if he doesn't show it's bad pr.

  IF the GB are mere figureheads as some have said, then perhaps indeed Jackson does not really know anything.

  Maybe so Londo, but it would be excellent to see him on camera proving that is all he is, a figurehead front for the WT Corporation.

  All the literature points to them as the source of all doctrine and direction, if that is so then let's hear him explain the reasoning behind using congregational guidelines for a culture that's 2000 years old.

  If he doesn't know anything then the record will be there to show JW's what they're being taught is not founded on truth.

  Two fingers up because they are so holy

  by oppostate in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  the two-finger-i'm-so-holy hand gesture is an old mannerism of catholic and orthodox hierarchs.

  it's all over their catholic paintings and scultures, and greek orthodox icons of, jesus too.

  ................................... here then, the holy gesture is adapted for use even by our very own gb members who are trying to appear most holy themselves.. .

  We can now estimate the absolute minimum number of child abuse cases

  by Viviane in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  vincent tool said that he is exclusively working the phones for child abuse cases, but never said he is not the only one.

  for now, let's assume the rate of abuse cases averages over time to the three or four cases he gets per month.

  let's further assume that, since he isn't the only person working the phones and is on vacation at some point, the number is 4-5 per month, or 4.5 per month.

  So regardless of the methodology the number comes out quite similar. This means that the estimates are well founded and one could give credence to the amount of over twice what the WT reported to the RC.

  this is when all the pieces of the puzzle come together.

  many thanks to simon for creating a forum which allows us to get a clear sense of what is happening.

  without this forum i would still be wandering in the wilderness.

  One thing concerning the FDS doctrine is for sure, now that the teaching is changed to mean only the Gobbering Body is the FDS they can't share the blame with all the previously-known-as-FDS anointed members.

  They wanted it all, no room for anyone else to be called FDS, well now they can have all the responsibility. This spiritual construct that is not an incorporated entity as the WT lawyers called them in the Unthank case. Maybe Jackson can explain that one.

  Yup!

  Spinks and O'Brien tried to shield Jackson from appearing before the RC and gave the lame excuse that he couldn't be of much help since he only deals with translation matters. Well Mr. Stewart exposed that lame lie!

  So Mr. MacClelan has just asked for Jackson to appear next week! Yay!

  Angus looks angry about the shunning issue in which a victim of abuse leaves, disassociates from the religion and she's shunned by family and friends.

  Wow! That's it, today Angus Stewart is my hero!
