  I found Combatting Cult Mind Control helpful for me. I found Releaseing the bonds, helpful in how someone can help others.

  i am no lawyer so bear with me.

  if california was not a mandatory reporting state when candice was abused, then how was the wtbts found legally guilty?

  don't get me wrong, they deserve it.

  Their not reporting was only part of it.

  They knew this man was a pedophile, and still failed to protect this and other children. They were found guilty of Malice. Deliberate and willful negligence. They deliberately failed to protect the children. That's what they were found guilty of. It was not just failure to report, it was the deliberate actions taken to protect the organization from lawsuit, instead of protecting the welfare of the children. Their actions of sweeping it under the carpet, was in part, the reason she was abused by this man. Their actions, put children at risk. This girl was one of them.

  Internal letters were damaging, enough, but they also used WT literature, where they preached about pedophilia. How keeping it quiet leads to putting children at risk, while at the same time, the internal letters are saying to keep it quiet. Showing they knew what they were doing was putting the children at risk.

  I agree, with a little more research these "moderate" JWs would see the truth of the "truth" There is nothing there to reform.

  i think this thread got lost in the shuffle, so i wanted to make another one.

  these are some of the key pages from the deposition of the lead elder, michael lee clarke.

  clarke admits he gets his marching orders from the wts.

  Here is a link to the court site itself. It has all the evidence, testimonies etc.

  Here is a link to the records in a more searchable format.

  I found all the internal letters from the legal department, Brooklyn, and the elders also very damaging.

  Tailsin, I don't see why not? I'm 46. I had wanted to do this ever since I was a teenager myself, then my teenage (not teenage anymore) daughter dyed her hair, really wanted to do it.

  I know many, much older than myself, who have colored their hair in fun ways. I'm just getting at the age where, I don't care, I am not hurting anyone else, and it makes me happy.
