What Percentage Of The Governing Body Are Pedofiles?
by Brokeback Watchtower inthe reason i ask this is because we heard reports that greenlees was kicked out of bethel because he was one and then we heard reports that another one, jaracz i believe was one all though it sounds kind of iffy to me.. 2 out of i don't how many total gb seems kind of high so i'm thinking that perhaps the percentage is quite higher as this would explain to a degree why the gb have written in clauses to keep the organization from reporting them to authorities.. it is true that part of the reason they remain silent to authorities is because of the reproach it brings to their precious corporation but i think that is only a small part of the reason and perhaps there might be a bigger reason maybe quite a few have been over powered by their darker side and have engaged in this behavior but because of denial and delusion they will not confess and willingly encourage cover ups.. just speculation i know but i'm starting to think that there is a very dark side to all of these guys hidden by their persona(jungian) that is making them stoop so low as to implement these very bad policies..

HLC and privacy rights
by StarTrekAngel insome time ago i used to work at a hospital.
when my family members would receive treatment at this place, often times they would ask me if i could look up information for them regarding their health.
i always had to tell them that privacy laws did not allow me to bypass the hospital's administration.

As I say, I'm not sure how it works in the US, but here if you suspected a nurse or doctor had acted in that way you would raise a complaint with the NMC who would undertake an investigation, IT records would be obtained and that person would be investigated and questioned. It still might be difficult to prove but they would have to tell outright lies to get out of it.

If someone accesses medical records or passses medical info on to any third party then they should be sacked, or if they are a nurse or doctor then they should be struck off. I'm sure the US will be the same, but if it happened in the UK, the nurse would be removed from the NMC register and would not be allowed to work as a nurse any more.

In the U.K., the HLC would have to be invited in by the patient or patients next of kin.
Even then, they are treated with the utmost suspicion by the medical staff and they will make sure no undue influence is made.
if the patient is under18 there would be a court order obtained pdq if it's thought blood may be an issue.

I used to like a nice peaty whiskey, Talisker etc. I'm now gravitating towards the eastern ones, Tomatin, as mentioned up there, is a beaut.

Why take it personally?
by stuckinarut2 ina random thought occurred to me today.. i actually feel genuinely sorry for witnesses who cut contact with ones they feel are no longer "spiritual" .. they do this based not on anything that the person has actually done to them personally, but due to an imposed view from the society.. it must play havoc with their inner conscience as they try and reconcile that the person they cut off has not actually done anything to harm them, but they have to view them as evil.. it reminded me of this thread i started some time back.

Not so sure that they do, by and large, feel remorse for treating disfellowshipped ones like pariahs.
In my experience the majority of witnesses are very superior and holier than thou and loved a reason to look down on others.

Landy, you probably know better than I do. After all, you weren't there. I think your number three applies to you. My windows are a bit soiled. Will you do them again, please?
Did you miss the 'on the surface bit?' mr touchy?
no problem - send me your address and I'll pop over and do them. I'll warn you now though my prices are high!

Through the years I've analyzed her in absentia (she won't talk to me, and I gladly reciprocate). Her dad died when she was just entering her teens. She was the apple of her daddy's eye, and his death left her in the custody of her crazy inbred hillbilly mother and her older unkind brothers. She was sexually abused within a year of her dad's death, and soon fled north to join her older married sister who did provide her with some sanctuary. But sanctuary doesn't prevent a person from making a whole bunch of brand-new bad decisions, and she did. Instead of seeking knowledge and wisdom, she decided she "knew it all" and sought good times and parties and such.
That led to an unwanted pregnancy (Hi there!) and a lousy marriage, yoked to an undisciplined man who felt trapped and directionless. His favorite excuse was that everybody always lied to him.
On the surface it sounds as though you may be judging her a tad harshly.
Another born in here.
It seems to me that people become witnesses for several reasons.
one, to replace a family environment that they are missing. Maybe they've been abused or suffered some form of neglect and the witnesses come along with their love bombing and voila. Instant family.
two, they've suffered a recent traumatic life event of some sort and are vulnerable and looking for answers. Any answers.
three, they like to be a big fish in a small pond. Joe the window cleaner never gets to boss anyone about at work, but at the meetings he can walk tall and be admired.
There may be more, but they don't have to be an idiot. Not necessarily.
