  Does this mean the Elders must ask the child TO SCREAM while being raped to avoid being a willing participant?? That's right! Unless a child screamed, a child is guilty of committing a fornication and therefore no rape happened. In such a case, the elders are to use whatever methods they can come out to interrogate a child for a confession. It's called a "Breaking Session." A True Story!

  Just Shows What Religion Can Do

  a child rape victim is sentenced to 100 lashes.. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-asia-21595814.

  i don't know about you, i'm an atheist, but i cannot accept that any religion can justify this inhumane, brutal, wicked treatment of a child victim of rape.. there is no excuse for this behaviour on the part of a supposedly civilsed government.

  it has fuck all to do with religion, it has all to do with humanity and being a 'human being'.. i have written to my mp and hope to follow this up through the un charter on childrens' rights.. anyone here booked a 'maldives luxury holiday'?.

  Hi Joe Grundy, thank you for posting this story. It truly is outrageous!

  Kudos to you for writing to your MP!

  The Watchtower makes them look like amateurs though. The WT actually sentence the young victim the death penalty(disfellowshipping) and protect the perpetrator(s).

  To Jehovah's Witnesses, being disfellowshipped is worse than dying. It, in fact, is being sentenced to an everlasting destruction(double dying). It takes your very being away.

  And the Watchtower Religious Leaders knew it. As a matter of a fact, through such an inhumane practice, the Cult thrives.

  You become a human hostage of the Watchtower Town in the moment of baptism.

  The Watchtower Cult leaders are the Criminals of Humanity.

  Ironically though, once you've figured out TTATT, disfellowshipping is the best thing that could ever happened to the Cult members. You are no longer under their captivity even though you may loose family and friends. That's why we are fighting against the Cult for the sake of our loved ones who are enslaved by the Evilness and warning public, ex-JWs, who remained in the darkness included, from becoming the victims of cult.

  Edit: Only those who personally exprienced the evilness of the Watchtower leadership would truly understand what it is like being "dehumanized" Of course it is a "violation of human right"!

  so i have been a lurker on this forum since its inception.

  i registered over a year ago.

  i jumped in several months back with a highly controversial subject of my daughter being sexually abused by an elder and the efforts we were taking to bring him to justice.

  There are a lot of crazy details and things most of you may never believe that I have left out.

  I know exactly what you meant by that! I too have an unbelievable story that's similar to what happened to your daughter. I, too, like yourself, have never given up but tirelessly have been working in bringing justice for my daughter. I helped 4 Jehovah's Witnesses Elders to be convicted as child abusers by the DCFS in the State of Utah. As a consequence, I was maliciously slandered and charged with "Reviling elders" and got disfellowshipped. I appealed the case to the the Governing Body and at the end, the GB endorsed the convicted child abusers and persecuted my family, the victims. Those abusers are still serving as elders, one as a Sub-Circuit Overseer whose name is Harry Diamanti. 3 others are Dan Harper, Eric Stocker, and Lonney Hicks.

  But I can tell you this, their days are numbered!

  I am trully sorry what happened to your daughter. She wouldn't be here today had you not been there for her. You both are heroes!

  I was born in the Year of the Snake. The year of birth is a big deal in Korea and China. It determins what and who you will be and serves as the factor of your behavior. Thanks for bring back the long forgotten memory of my home country tradition.

  "Sinyun Bok Mani Bodseyo" is Happy New Year in Korean.

  About a year ago I found JWN but was frankly put off by it. The threads I had read were either just mean people who seemed bitter and angry, or there was a lot of bashing of a certain religion.

  That's the Watchtower Speaking!
