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.

Either he shows up and lets himself be questioned or else he fails to show up and deceit will be demonstrated. It's that simple.

That's exactly it. Damned if he does, but f-ed if he doesn't.

After watching the final hour this morning, I think Jackson's avoiding the commission would be far more damaging than his appearance, no matter how he handles it and no matter how the society spins it.

The RC knows for a certainty now that something is rotten in JW land, and they haven't invested these kinds of resources only to throw their hands up and walk away.

a jehovah's witness official says the church's stance to never let women hold decision-making roles compares to muslim and aboriginal people adhering to their own ancient beliefs.

It would be great if the society's response to this matter was to no longer permit women's participation in congregation meeting since the bible commands "women to be silent." 😉

That was a great point made by McClellan, highlighting the society's inconsistent application of scripture.

I had wondered about that myself while "still in" but would not have questioned it openly in a million years for fear of reprisal.

Question. Was Terrence O’Brien's & Rodney Spink's testimony Perjury?

by Lemonp in

if you have not seen today's testimony from the head of the australia branch, here is a link showing the reaction of the commission when he is caught lying about what geoffrey jackson does:.

caught.

as we know, the things claimed by the previous witnesses are not true regarding the amount of control the gb has.

I don't have a legal background, but I would say that if it was the intent to deceive the RC wrt Jackson and the GB's roles, that is indeed perjury. It would be up to the RC however to prove their intent to deceive and to further pursue the matter.
