Police should always be notified. In the young people ask book i believe it talks about reporting these things to the elders or the family, but no where does it say to contact \authorities. Abuse it abuse, does it not say, to report these things to the police.

Warning bells! Any organization that promotes spying or reporting on one another should raise concerns!
by stuckinarut2 inwe all know that the society promotes a culture of reporting on one another to the elders for any breach of wt policy (not actual crimes - just breaking of wt rules).
many here have been "caught" researching facts about the society on sites such as this one.. surely that should raise alarm bells??
only high control cult-like groups operate like that!.

This was the feeling i had when i faded away. tho an unbaptized publisher i was still feeling eyes on me every time i walked into the congregation, i found myself at time when going out, going for miles away so i knew hopefully there were no spies, but i was wrong, It is sad it has to be like this in today's world,

i'm single but have "hardcore" siblings in the religion, thankfully i do have family who never expressed interest in the jws.

Contempt of court, case in San Diego county really disgusts me!
by Crazyguy inthis case has to be talked about by ever awake jw every apostate everyone.
this case because they refuse to hand over documents the court already knows they have because they handed them over before but heavily redacted, is the icing on the cake!
this case shows thier evil plain and simple.

I thought Jackson's comment in the Royal Commission was flawed when he said that if it was made a law that they had to hand them over, it would be more easier, LIKE WHAT, they should hand them over anyway

1914.... current significance?
by NeverKnew init seems that when i ask witnesses questions about 1914, they really don't understand the relevance to their message today.
i am told that they preach about the coming kingdom and that they don't preach a message of 1914. if a person doesn't understand 1914 then i can clearly see how showing them the inaccuracies of the doctrine wouldn't matter.
can we compile a list of ties 1914 has to their current beliefs?.

I think that is the case perfectly explained, and when you ask they will say something like, well we have faith that the GB know what is going on, i tried to read Danial again the other night, might try it again after a bottle of rum lol

I still look at this at times, and wonder, i mean i didn't understand it 20 years ago, breaking it down seems t make t a little better, as i leaned the date was wrong by reading the article about it on jwfacts.
Now they have brought out a new video on jw broadcasting explainable it again
Here is the link to it, scroll down a little to watch the video
