people who work with children in england will be legally required to report child sexual abuse or face prosecution under government plans.. .
the move - which is subject to a consultation - was recommended last year by the independent inquiry into child sexual abuse (iicsa).. .
the home secretary told the bbc she wanted to correct one of the "biggest national scandals".. .
Fisherman - “…Funny how everybody got angry at people not reporting when it was perfectly legal to do so and not at the government…”
Don’t kid yourself.
There’s been just as much outrage at the latter as there has been at the former.
It’s just finally starting to have an effect, now.
what a load of crap this stupid belief was.
i'll give you a couple of examples.
i was the sign language interpreter for our congregation and there was about 15-20 deaf who regularly showed up.
Jeezus, Rat, there’s more to life than procreation.
it seems the watchtower are ploughing ahead with bigger and better film studios but come on, they really have no idea.. how come all the people in times past look like healthy, middle class americans/ europeans/australians in costume?
get real.
even a visit to rural india today would give a hint of how people probably lived back then.
Have any of them shown First-Century Christians going door-to-door, carrying bags of scrolls?

the worldwide recruiting attempt of jehovah’s witnesses to bring their religious message to the deaf using sign language can be viewed as something of a mixed bag.
while they strive to communicate it using the right methods, they convey an illusionary message that is detrimental in countless ways.[1].
jehovah’s witnesses international “deaf ministry” as directed by the watch tower bible and tract society, inc., is no small feat because there are over 200 distinct sign languages in the world.
Maybe that’s why some of the shallower JWs I knew growing up seemed so annoyed with me…
…’cause I simply (and openly) didn’t give a shit about “social standing”.
watching this video and thinking about all jdubs who watch all the gov bod updates yes they are all definitely in the covid cult thanks to the gov body.

they are fighting the government's decision to remove their registration as a religious community.. .
The Org’s response to this really is disproportional.
Either they’ve bought into their own internal rhetoric so fully that they can’t imagine losing, or…
…they really need the money way more badly than we ever thought.

Beth Sarim - “…it’s good to see Scandinavian countries looking at the Borg and it's harmful practices at least.”
Interesting turn of phrase, considering “Borg” is a Scandinavian surname.
😄
if a publisher openly told the elders that they thought the gb were wrong about some or a lot of things, but said they will not share these thoughts with anyone else then would this be a case of disassociation disgfellowship?.
my guess is lots of elders meetings and shepherding calls to try to get you to say something they could use against you.. but what would be the sin in which you are not repented?.
the only reason to be dissed is non repentance?.
According to the confidential elders’ manual “Shepherding the Flock of God”, merely thinking that the Governing Body is wrong about something technically constitutes “apostasy”.
No matter what it is.
Seriously.

Yup.
They're perfectly free to be assholes…

And that is as it should be.
