  UK law changed to allow prosecution of those who stay silent over child abuse

  by MMXIV in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  the domestic violence, crime and victims (amendment) act 2012 comes into force on monday in england and wales to allow prosecution for those who stay silent over a child's serious physical abuse.. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-18638734.

  whilst this law was put in place to stop a loophole whereby those who commit child murder claim it was someone else while they just remained silent, this now makes those who do not take steps to stop the abuse equally guilty.. elders who do not take steps to stop or report the serious abuse of minors could face prosecution and 10 years in prison.

  it may no longer be good enough to tell the abused or abusers it's their right to go to authorities (per the 2010 elders manual) they now need to take action.. whether criminal prosecutions are brought against elders who masquerade as police, judge, jury and social workers whilst not themselves reporting abuse of a minor will remain to be seen, however the law now exists to make it possible.. any jw child who comes to serious harm where the elders knew about it should ask themselves - could i have stopped this by telling the police?

  Marijuana

  does anybody know the jw reasoning why using mind-altering depression and schizophrenia medication are okay but marijuana is not?

  okay i could see saying not to use marijuana because it is currently illegal in the us but what if it were legal?

  there are lots of health benefits for marijuana.

  i would like to list 10 facts i have learned since coming on this site ,facts i wasn`t aware of while in the movement and facts that have set me free from a religous movement that really is not interested in facts per se.. these are not listed in order of importance , and feel free to add your own list that applys to your circumstances.

  1.the wtb&ts involvement with the u.n.. 2.the wtb&ts investments/shares some of which are questionable.. 3.their real estate properties around the world, millions if not billions, of $$$, while being a not for profit organization.

  4.their pretense of obeying the law on" blood" while conveniently adjusting it to minimise their legal obligations in threat of a lawsuit.

  WATCHTOWER (Madoff) with your investment

  by Terry in

  1. watchtower
  2. scandals

  if i were convincing you to invest your life savings in a guranteed investment based on "insider" information that made the payoff a sure thing.

  and you acted to seize the opportunity---nobody would blame you for taking the plunge.. if i assured you....reassured you....repeatedly that the payoff and reward was "any day now" you might well hang in there for a long time.. .

  but, at a certain point, your patience and trust would wear thin and a serious request for proof of legitimacy would hang heavy in the air.. .

  JWN needs to form a judicial committee

  by irondork in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  jwn needs to form a committee to collect, organize and disseminate information to candace conti's lawyers.. .

  several valid points have been made on this forum about the dishonest reasonings and tactics used by wt lawyers during and after this conti trial.

  exposing the wt and using its own printed track record against it is what the good folks at jwn do best.. .

  Writing an Op-Ed Post for the New York Times

  by Band on the Run in

  1. jw
  2. experiences

  i posted on another thread that the ap report in the nyt was disappinting.

  my thought is to write to the ombudsman or at least an editor.

  the article was a joke when held against standard nyt reporting.. so many issues are raised that are applicable to all religions and wider societal concerns.
