I must check that site nugget. I have been mulling over how much of a duty of care elders and WT authorities can be held liable for. I wonder if this is going to be a sticking point. to my mind, Candace was abused on the door to door work too. Plus the door to door work presented an opportunity for the the abuser to consolidate grooming his victim. This work is supervised by Elders and it is a work incumbent on all publishers. Also it is defined by Jehovahs witnesses as a being part of public collective worship. It is clear to that there is a duty of care but this may not meet legal requirements of what a duty of care entails

Huffington post comments still going strong on JW Case
by nugget inhttp://www.huffingtonpost.com/2012/06/16/calif-jury-awards-28m-in-_n_1602997.html.
getting all the usual apologist nonsense and people who have little understanding of the case or the way the society works.
it is good that the comments are still going though and there is sanity occasionally.

What is with abusive atheists?
by Fernando insorry folks, i know the "candace conti case" is where all our time attention should be for now.
i just had this much less important issue on my heart and wanted to make a quick note of it, as i am struggling with remembering all the details as clearly afterward.. although i am a non-religious believer and simple follower of jesus, i have had some constructive interaction with atheists and agnostics on jwn.
i do enjoy learning more about their perspective.

it is great to wake up to humour on this thread, giordano - thankyou.
and Sabastious great satire - this is how I also conceive of the religion of scientism the one that the four horseman of the apocolypse seem to belong to when they jumb on their bandwagons with missionary zeal.
edit: most of the time I have been wondering how Candace Conti and those like her are doing - Steven Unthank, Holly and all the ones who were part of the tort action claim. And all those to come.

mrs Jones ms Conti's victory is absolutely awesome. But I ask myself how many more there are like her and who are in the process of working up the courage to take on the WTS. I believe there are many more.

that made me laugh xchange and i agree that there is a small percentage of the population that have a problem but would go further and say that it is also a small percentage of an individual's makeup too and that the internet seems to bring it on.

btw my post was not directed at you NC although it came directly after yours. I literally was sitting in front of my reply box for half an hour and it was only after I'd posted that I saw that you had posted before me. just thought I'd mention this.
