jehovahs witnesses cover up child sex abuse and oust a victim.
topics: criminal justice / religion .
Amazing.
People on "the outside" are really doing a fantastic job of not only exposing the child abuse problem inside JWs, but also piecing together all of the cult nonsense - judicial committees, disfellowshipping, etc - that make them so reckless if not dangerous.
the gb has been preparing the flock for the assyrian's attack, that now is starting from australia:.
elders, you can learn some helpful lessons from what we have just discussed: (1) the best thing you can do to prepare for the future attack of the assyrian is to strengthen your faith in god and help your brothers to do the same.
(2) when the assyrian attacks, you must be completely convinced that jehovah will save us.
here it talks about the: "second stage of public hearing into catholic church authorities in ballarat":.

will we see a follow up of more live hearings in the future for the jws too, maybe gb members testifying etc?.
Wow. It does indeed look like this is just a preliminary stage.

AUDESAPERE - yes the Royal Commission. I just can't believe they have their hands on this stuff. . . . It's absolutely incredible.
Ok, so perhaps I should have said "Gezundheidt!" 😉

WTF!?!?!?
They are so screwed.
God bless this commission!

see this letter from the royal commission: .
letter from watchtower australia to governing body regarding transfer of funds between branches.

Friggin incredible.
If this council has any say in the matter, they're screwed.
we all know the wt basis for disfellowshipping, (1 corinthians 5:9-13) 9 12 for what do i have to do with judging those outside?
do you not judge those inside, 13 while god judges those outside?
remove the wicked [man] from among yourselves.. if removing "the man" is a protection for the congregation and no police are called, what does it say about the witnesses view of the world?
I just thought this was an absolutely extraordinary point the commission made. They have skillfully tied the abuse cover-up to the JWs twisted worldview:
Sure we JWs will DF an abuser to "keep the congregation clean," but the rest of you "worldly people" are going to die at Armageddon anyway. Why in the hell should we care about you?
the lawyer at the australian royal commission (arc) hangs the elder out to dry on his own statements!.
wonderful to see the org's little dictators being subjected to their very own personal judicial committee hearing - but in front of millions, and not in secret!.
from 43 minutes onward.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xv8ptogc6k0#t=2607.
I can easily say the only recourse for them at this stage is to let the elders hang and say they were the problem not following direction. His lies will be the perfect cover.
I can can almost guarantee that is what will happen.
Those elders who have testified will be thrown under the bus so fast by the society's representatives they won't know what hit them.
