  PIMO to POMO

  ok i'm ready for the transition.

  i am not writing anything to anyone or writing some dumb letter.

  the calls and visits trying to get me to come back will soon follow, the family guilt trips will intensify, loss of friends- really more like cult member associates, how the hell am i supposed to do this?

  I basically just moved and said I'm not going anymore this is the reason. I brought up ARC and the concealment of pedos. Basically that I find it extremely crooked that not a single GB member has any ethics to stand up and admit wrongdoing! In addition they won't even say that they have had to take donations and pay these lawsuits.

  After a couple discussions I haven't heard back. Haven't been dfed yet either. I don't think they will come after me unless I start reaching out to tell all. But my concern is family. I only have 4 left in and I think if I reach 1 it could be the dominoes effect. If I get my extended family out it's game on WT!

  .

  just came across this info from 1946 yearbook.

  it would be fascinating to have the same information on members at this year's annual meeting.

  Didn't CT Russell say somewhere that a man changed his skin from Black to white through prayer?

  I guess most of the colored brothers and sisters just weren't very spiritual back then!

  What crime should elders report?

  by kramer in

  so, i am trying to get my head around what the right position of elders should be when they come across crime is.. i think i get the issuess around clergy confidentiality - and how that might potentially be breached when they talk about it to other elders, let alone the police.. but if people are saying that elders - or clergy of another faith should report crime to the police when it is confessed to the, then where are the boundaries.. so if someone says they should report to police on a confessed example of child abuse, that's one thing.. how about reporting to police consensual sex between a 19year old and 15 year old - which is statutory rape in the uk.

  how about criminal fraud if they come across it.

  assault on a congregant?.

  Abused and pissed. It's not just about whether they should or shouldn't report. The other problem is they tried to prevent it from being reported by having the elders tell victims and their parents NOT to report.

  This is the bigger of the crimes.imho

  Stephane , it's also dishonest

  I often wondered why the expenses were so high at the conventions when an assembly hall was built by us .

  When I sell my house and have a profit I invest the profit into the next house.

  They do not they take the profit and all expenses for the new building are put back on the congregations or circuits. I always thought they took the money and spent it toward the new kh or assembly hall.

  It is extremely dishonest the way it works!

  Fredo what I find really funny about that 1975 article is reading it and then watching the distancing act of anything to do with 1975 in the video about that fiasco a couple years back.

  I think that was my last regional convention. I was already primo then just working on my wife.

  Doubter are you a child molester scared that you're secrets will be let out of the bag if the organization collapses?

  The way you deny deflect defend in the face of logic makes me think you got reasons to keep this ship from sinking.
