the sooner they spend their money, the quicker they'll be gone... they have a good 30 years remaining before they finally sell everything and hand over a fat check to the Rothschild family.
i was thinking what a crushing blow it would be to the organization if the warwick project was stalled or held up in court.
many times a project will run into legal challenges over environmental issues or a lack of planning on the social-traffic- air quality - noise impacts.
political pressure on the council also can create headaches for the project proponents.. i saw a community once that had an indian casino planned.

LOS LUNAS – A former member of the Los Lunas Congregation of Jehovah’s Witnesses is suing the church, claiming she was molested by a former elder.
Monica Lynn Jaramillo, 35, through her attorneys, Terrence Revo and Irwin Zalkin, filed a complaint for damages Aug. 12 in the 13th Judicial District Court. Also named as defendants in the case is Watchtower Bible and Tract Society of New York, which oversees the church, and a former elder, who has not been charged with a crime.
Attempts to reach the Jehovah’s Witnesses Kingdom Hall in Los Lunas for comment were unsuccessful before the News-Bulletin deadline.
According to the civil lawsuit, Jaramillo allegedly was sexually abused as a child by the elder, who had served as a ministerial servant and an elder, which are leadership positions in the congregation. Jaramillo said the abuse occurred in 1987 when she was 8 years old at his home.
The complaint alleges that the church’s elders knew of the elder’s history of previous alleged rapes of congregational members, including the alleged rape of the mother of Jaramillo at a congregation in Indiana when she was 8 years old.
Jaramillo’s mother, according to the lawsuit, claims she informed the church elders of her sexual assault, as well as others by the elder, but they failed to take action to remove him from his leadership position in the congregation. The lawsuit says the church’s elders told her that to be appointed as a regular pioneer of the church, she would have to prove to the elders that she had forgiven him for raping her.
“(The mother) was instructed by the elders of Los Lunas that she should demonstrate her forgiveness by hosting … (the elder) and his family in their home, and by permitting her children to spend time, including nights, at … his home under (his) supervision,” the lawsuit said.
Under duress, the lawsuit claims, the mother followed these directives, which allowed the defendant access to commit the alleged sexual abuse. Jaramillo claims that she was “severely sexually molested” by the elder. As a result of psychological coping mechanisms, Jaramillo repressed her memory of the abuse and did not understand that she had been sexually abused by the elder until April 2007, the lawsuit said.
As a result of the abuse, the complaint alleges that Jaramillo has suffered great pain and emotional distress that prevented her from the normal enjoyment of life, requiring medical and psychological treatment and also that she suffered the loss of earnings and earning capacity.
“This lawsuit highlights a disturbing trend of victims coming forward to tell their stories about sexual abuse within Jehovah’s Witnesses congregations,” said Zalkin. “The allegations by this victim and the victims of other cases show an alarming tolerance for abusers of children within the Jehovah’s Witnesses religion.”
okay people i have a new video that some of you may be interested in- i believe it is the only one of its kind online.
three elders meet with a young female that knows ttatt and is trying to get back into the jws for family reasons.
the audio also includes the three elders disagreeing and deliberating after she is dismissed from the room and then when they call her back in.

Check your state laws... some states have no statute of limitations, some allow children to each their late 20's before speaking up... just depends on where the crime took place and what laws were (or are in place)...
Don't let this dick get away with it...
i'm not, even a little bit and i don't understand what the outrage is all about..
They should put this in the Secret Elder's Manual to illustrate what they mean by "Brazen Conduct"
remember , there's three pointing back at the wt !
the following quote is taken from the awake 22nd april 1970 issue, pg 8 : -.
"one of the reasons is that people are disturbed by what is happening in their churches.

so a few months ago, i was searching the internet for "exit counselors", and i came across an interesting article about the psychological affects of religious cults in general... i then started to take down some notes so i could go back and research later.... this morning, i was looking at those notes which included a top 7 list of the most psychologically damaging sects or cults (according to the opinion of certain people in this very limited field)... here's that list:.

I believe the references I looked up were more focused on the severity of the psychological damage brought upon individual members of each sect as perceived by exit conselors, psychologists, etc..
I don't remember the "population" of each sect being a discussed or even being a factor in the final analysis... But I do get your point...

Funny you should mention Alcoholics Anonymous... I have a friend who goes to AA meetings (or at least that's what he says) and he seems a lot worse now than before he finally admitted he had a drinking problem... There just might be some truth to your opinion...
