Phizzy - The investigation referred to above is by the Charities Commission and is very toothless in this particular area in that it can only act on breaches of Charity Law.

Laws can be changed! A couple of years ago there was a U.K. petition for parliament to revoke the WTBTS charity status. It was too narrow in scope. IMHO it should have required parliament to change the charitable law to promote and protect UK citizen's basic human rights.

Why can't Brits petition parliament to revise charitable laws to require charitable organizations to promote basic societal requirements like create and implement effective child protection practices, promote critical thinking instead of using "undue influence" to control members, and promote tolerance - not hatred and discrimination? To be an EU member countries promise not to infringe on basic human right that include freedom of thought. Why can't U.K. law require charitable organizations to do the same.

People can think – organizations can’t! When people act contrary to the law, they are held accountable. If charitable laws are changed and an organization’s practices are contrary to the law, then the organization and its leaders should be held accountable.

Effective policies to protect children from sexual abuse would include:
- Background checks of members caring for children and in authority positions supervising activities involving children;
- Reporting all suspected criminal acts to police ASAP and before reporting them to the organization’s legal department;
- Requiring parents or at least two non-related and opposite-sex adults supervise an organization’s activities when children are present; and
- Organizations must not promote ostracizing members to other members for any reason.
Peace be with you and everyone, who you love,

If you are interested in collaborating with other people on SOL reform and other novel ideas to protect children from sexual abuse, have you checked out Advocates for Protecting Children from Maltreatment group on Linkedin? It is an open group, so any Linkedin member should have no problems reading discussions. If you're not a Linkedin member, you will need to join Linkedin to read any discussions.

The group was started less than 2 weeks ago and has 52 members. Linkedin members from around the world are encouraged to join, share their ideas, and spread the word to other advocates.

Peace be with you and everyone, who you love,

Does this mean that the end of this "System" will not occur for the next year with at least a one year extension for the next 3 years? How would a JW respond? Would this cause them any cognitive dissonance about moving JW.org from Brooklyn to Warwick? Why would the Watchtower need more money to build in Warwick after selling off their Brooklyn properties?

What will JWs do in Warwick for entertainment compared to Brooklyn, NY? Skinny dip in the pool?

Going on the OFFENSIVE
by Coded Logic in
1. watchtower
2. scandals
the wtbts has an easy time painting x-witnesses as apostates because the direction of information is entirely one way.

and jws rarely get an opportunity to consider both sides of the equation for themselves.

i think that websites like this one are a great tool for those who are already questioning their beliefs or are already entirely out.
ABibleStudent

I encourage everyone to do anything that they feel comfortable doing and will not make a JW feel persecuted. Signs with QR codes and anonymous emails that make a JW curious are great ideas. Asking simple questions of JWs manning carts and overcoming thought-stopping platitudes are also good.

Contacting politicians to revise satute of limitation laws for child sexual abuse, tax code laws for non-profit organizations, and for charity laws would probably have the biggest impact, but the WTBTS would probably try to spin it to JWs as governments were persecuting JWs.

Peace be with you and everyone, who you love,

I wonder which will come first the WTBTS's Armageddon or AD1914.com? I'm feel AD1914.com will come sooner.

Is everyone waiting for October 1, 2014 to post this information on other JW related sites?
