  i noticed that both of franz's books were available through amazon.com in kindle format a few months back.

  that no longer seems to be the case.

  anyone have any knowledge as to why they are no longer available through kindle as an ebook?.

  Does anyone know when Anthony Morris III started partaking?

  by gbrn in

  i suppose that it is a long shot, but i was curious if anyone knew the answer to this question.

  i had heard that morris became a jw in the 1970s and that he also had children who were raised witnesses.

  it seems odd that someone that new "in the truth" would partake, and with children mind you.

  Question regarding parental obligation to report to authorities

  by gbrn in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  i am relatively new to the forum, and not quite as familiar with all of the ins and outs of jw culture as many of you are, so i apologize if this is an ignorant question.

  it is quite apparent the wt has handled child abuse allegations in a horrible way, viewing it as sin as opposed to a crime.

  after an allegation is reported to the elders, and they are not required by law to report to the authorities, why don't parents simply go to the authorities themselves and report the crime.
