police minister peter ryan has written a letter to mr unthank advising that jw's are now applying, in mass, for the wwc in victoria.
to little to late.
criminal charges still stand and cannot be backdated!

there are many of us who are trapped within the religion and are looking at leaving.
i was wondering..... if there was an organized and well publicized effort to leave the organization en-masse on a certain date yet to be determined, how many do you think would participate?.
one person leaves the org and it creates a small ripple.
I think that knowing you are not alone in your crisis of faith is tremendously empowering. The wheels are coming off of the bus.
it just stopped working?
did we overuse it?
or did the wt lawyers bribe someone?.
yeah I can't see it either. That must show the editors how much of a story this is.

One person leaves the org and it creates a small ripple. A family leaves the org and it creates a splash. However if there were many people worldwide who left at the same time it would be a tsunami.
Just curious

i think it may be a good time to start writing to other publications with some of the outlandish.
jw doctrines...higher education is one thing that comes to mind.

This is a huge opportunity to raise awareness about the organizations false prophecies, policies and practices. I truly hope that there is some news on the Austrailian case filed by Steven Unthank. It seems as if there is momentum building.
There are many brothers and sisters who will never look at a site such as this, but they will read news articles and the associated comments. Keep up the good work!
hi everyone.
as a parting gift to you all before i take a much needed break from this forum, i thought you would be pleased to know that the independent, a leading uk newspaper, will be publishing a piece on the "mentally diseased" watchtower article in tomorrow's edition.. i would like to thank everybody who has assisted the journalist, jerome taylor, in his investigation.. best wishes to all of you,.
cedars.
Good point skeeter. I wonder how many of us there would be? What a shockwave it would be if there were 50,000 that decided to leave in the same week.

"Recognize their right to leave"....without sanctions or shunning?
Come on Rick can you elaborate.... if I left the organization because of doctrinal differences, would my family be instructed to shun me?

they include letters, forms, videos, booklets, instructions on how to handle everything in kingdom hall locally and rbc's financially and otherwise.=includes the branch's instructions on how to write the local incorporations so that all assets go to watchtower inc. and in case that corporation doesn't exist anymore or is no longer tax free, to the governing body (that's what it says!).
i have them for all states but only going to include ny (since that's where they are located).
Its a business 00DAD. Religion is just a vehicle for the corp. The standardized plans for halls remind me of a franchise trying to keep a uniform brand.
Gotta love the instructions on destroying the letters to the BOE.
I wonder what job on the RBC Jesus would have had? Chairman, CFO, Framing overseer?
