I agree with Steve about Louise's sensitivity. Her video on spanking, while at times funny, gives us insight into the fear and pain she experienced as a child. She has indeed suffered because of this despicible religion and like most great comedians, the humor was born from pain.

Why don't parents of an abused child go straight to police, why go to an elder first??
by FeelingFree ini hope i don't come across as judgemental but having read a lot on the current child abuse cases and the different threads on here, i am left wondering why on earth a parent of an abuse victim would go to an elder with the problem first and not straight to police?.
as a parent myself i know that if anything like that happend to my child (this applies to when i was still an active jw as well as now) i would not hesitate in going to the authorities as soon as i found out, it wouldn't of crossed mine or my husbands mind to go to an elder.
maybe after we had reported it but definitely never as the first port of call.

Listen, OBEY, and be blessed. Over and over and over, you are getting sleepy , you are getting sleepy, don't call the police or you and your children will DIE, don't call the police or you and your children will DIE. Mind control, Mind control, Mind control.

I am JW.ORG
by LogCon infamous quote from wuthering heights revised.. '... i am jw.org!
it's always, always in my mind: not as a pleasure, any more than i am always a pleasure to myself, but as my own being.
so don't talk of our separation again: it is impracticable...'.

...But Joe, those little blue ones came blessed! BTW, I'm wondering what the person looks like who would actually spend money for and wear those ugly ass shoes. I'm picturing someone Gary Larson (The far side) drew.

by new hope and happiness inon the basis that most of us realise the w.t wasnt really the best " job" or way to spend our days, it would be fun to find out what people would really have liked to have done with there lifes and if this is still possible.

When I was 4 years old I was asked to be in a demo at the KH, playing a little kid interrupting the publisher giving the presentation. Right then and there I KNEW I wanted to be an actress. I would have been damn good at it too ! Later, I wanted to perform as a back up singer. I would have been damn good at it too! Now, my dream job would be a beer taster. (I'm serious!) I would be damn good at it, I promise.

answer at the hall "its all illuminate!"
by purrpurr ini probably havnt spelt that right but anyway the other week a bro at my hall answered up saying that he had done research into the lives of these "rock and roll" stars and that he had discovered that they all belonged to a demon controled, satan worshipping secret cult called the illuminarte!
therefore we must steer clear of popular music because of the secrect demonic lyrics that it contains!!.
of course everyone nodded in agreement and the study conductor thanked him for his "fine" comment!.

Quarterback, there was a time when the WT conductor didn't hesitate to "correct" an answer. There were many conductors who would publicly embarass commenters so much so that eventually they were toldby HQ to instead ask the audience if there was another thought. However, they could NEVER call on a sister after the erronious comment because THAT would be a woman teaching/correcting. At some point the conductors just gave up and let the kooks only comment once or twice per meeting.

Human kindness
by stillin ini hold kindness in high regard; it separates us from the drudgery of life and elevates those who practice it as well as those who receive it.
my family has been going through a big crisis for several weeks now and i've noticed a few things.
several of the elders have expressed their concern for us, shared a scripture and then back out to field service or whatever.

Stillin, I'm sorry you are going through a tough time. Isn't it amazing that during these times people reveal whether or not they are your real friends.

I wonder how much the GB participates in their own defense. Even if they are/will hire outside council they may not necessarily be taking all their advice. After all, they have an established record of arrogance.

Just curious, was he an elder before, during, or after he committed the crimes?
