The summing up was very critical of JW's at the end of the Inquiry today, 14th August
The contrast between the words of the JW who summed up, merely trying to excuse the org and justify its terrible position, was marked with those words from the lady representing the Baptist Church, she showed what they are doing, willing to do, and apologised for past errors. On what they are willing to do, she said they are wanting to go further than any Law will make them, because it is the Right Thing To Do, and a Loving God would want them to. Contrast THAT with the JW final submission !

2 + 2 = 5?! lol
by LoveUniHateExams ininteresting video from carl benjamin.. apparently, some philosopher is arguing that 2 + 2 doesn't always = 4; sometimes it equals 5.. this is madness, utter madness.
i'm a scientist; objective reality does exist.
the existence of gravity isn't up for debate.

" Postmodernism is a mind virus which erodes people's ability to think and reason. It should always be exposed for the trash it is." Wise words from the O.P.
It is so time wasting when people try to promote what is nonsense, there are plenty of things for Science and Philosophy etc. to grapple with that will really make a difference to human existence when the problems are solved. Nonsense slows this process down, thanks for calling it out !

The women that abandon “The Good News” are a large army
by Aimee.Padilla into be born a woman is a great disadvantage in many parts of the world and much more if she is part of a destructive sect like the jehovah’s witnesses where she is submitted to the “theocratic order” being the base that sustains the corporate pyramid, displaying submission at all times before male authority.
those of us that have been part of this cult can verify that the woman has to carry out a series of practices that for the rest of society is somewhat incomprehensible.
i’d like to draw your attention to the act of head covering, if for any reason a woman has to pray in public while a male is present, who is not available to lead the prayer, she must cover her head because she wouldn’t be respecting the arrangement of authority if she didn’t.

" The other good news is there are many woman in today's society who never joined this religion framed in lies and oppressive corruption created by dishonest men."
And I wonder how those poor women trapped in the Org feel when they see how happy and successful such women are !

This Thread reminds me of what, if memory serves was a kind of Song, certainly a Refrain, when I was young, it went : " Ya don't Drink, ya don't Smoke, What do ya do ?".
That REALLY applies to JW's, the List of what they cannot do is Sooooo Long ! The List of what they CAN do is SOoooo Boring !.
Edited to add, I think it was the Song by Adam and The Ants called Goody Two Shoes" ?? : " Goody two, goody two, goody goody two shoes
Goody two, goody two, goody goody two shoes
Don't drink, don't smoke, what do you do?
Don't drink, don't smoke, what do you do?" -

What defines a "Woman of Color" in Today's World?
by RubaDub inwe hear daily "a woman or color".
one person here mentioned that nikki haley (parents are from india) is a woman of color.. what defines "woman of color?
" is there some scan gun that they put point at your head and defines the pigmentation?.

The very act of trying to define people by the colour of their skin is a Racist endeavour.
We are all Humans, any differences, be they cultural, religious, political, biological, skin colour, or simply what group of Humans you come from, really do not matter, unless you are a Racist.
If it matters to you to define people that way, take a long hard look in the mirror, and then change your World view.

Many damn good Posts by Pale.E on here in the past too !
Quora is a good place to anti-witness, it will not be seen as an "Apostate" Site by active J.W's. Though I have seen a number of "actives" go on there, get a good arse kicking, and not just from XJW's but the thinking Public, and then they scuttle back to their safe Reddit Closed groups or wherever.
But, a seed may well have been planted " Why can't I refute what they are saying ? I have the truth", or something similar, and more importantly, it exposes what the JW org is to the thinking public. in other words, a good Anti-witness is given !

The Guardian: Former Jehovah's Witness elders call for mandatory reporting of child sexual abuse
by AndersonsInfo inhttps://www.theguardian.com/world/2020/aug/10/former-jehovahs-witness-elders-call-for-mandatory-reporting-of-child-sexual-abuse?fbclid=iwar13k3rzferkzvjj5lbxegzhjr1dkfw34gqchgms4gdmhjufcv24hpzjcco.
two former jehovah’s witness elders have called for mandatory reporting of child sexual abuse, saying the organisation believes it is “answerable only to god”.. duncan corbett, who was an elder for 18 years, told the independent inquiry into child sexual abuse that the protection of minors and the handling of abuse claims must be taken out of the church’s hands.
“let them deal with the sin and the authorities handle the crime,” he told a hearing in london.. lloyd evans, another former elder who now campaigns against religious fundamentalism, said: “this is a group that feels they are answerable only to god … they don’t feel as though they need to yield to any regulations that are imposed on them.”.

I think the case for Mandatory Reporting has been well made by so many representatives to the Inquiry, that it is bound to call for it in its Report, which they "hope" will be published in the Summer of 2021. We then have to wait and see if the Government can be arsed to put their recommendations in to Law.
I hope it is, along with instituting a Government run Body that audits and oversees all these religious groups and makes sure they are doing things properly. But it is a waiting game, things move slowly in this sort of area.

By taking ownership of all Kingdom Halls the K.H Trust has a lot of assets. If they can be successfully sued, they will have the money to pay, that is one consolation.
As all K. Halls and Congregations are their responsibility, they cannot wriggle out of being responsible for what goes on in one of their Branches. Of course, they cannot be held responsible for historic cases of abuse, which is why this move has been done, and they will try and wriggle and put all responsibility upon local Elders to follow the "present" Child Safeguarding Policy. Make a mistake brother Elder, and YOU will pay !
It is still a minefield for any poor victim of this evil, money grubbing org. They are determined not to pay Just Compensation, or Apologise, or give any kind of closure to the poor victims. What utter bastards !

The Inquiry has concluded, with its Report "hoped" to be published by the Summer 2021.
Compare the response and final statement from the Baptist Church, to that of Jehovah's Witness attack dog Shaun Brady.
If I wanted to join a Christian Church the Baptists are showing what a Christian attitude is, and why they have such an excellent attitude. I would think about joining them. The J.W's are showing they wish only to defend that which cannot be defended, and therefore to reduce the size and likelihood of Compensation Payments.
Brady also contends that the Destruction of Records pointed out by Richard Scorer is "Untrue". I wonder if evidence will emerge that vital Documents concerning historical Abuse within Jehovah's Witnesses have been destroyed since the edict about disposing of certain Documents went out. If so Brady has very nearly committed Perjury, and certainly has if he actually had knowledge that such destruction occurred.
