there's a popular misconception that books in general are in terminal decline, that this is the reason the wt organisation has turned to tablets instead of print, and this in turn has created a financial crisis for the organisation which traditionally relied upon publishing books for income.
this is wrong on a number of levels.
firstly physical books are not in terminal decline, they are as popular as ever with consumers.
Thank you for this, it's increased my belief that the litterature well, is indeed drying up.
... And therefore, the more litterature that is collected and safely disposed of, the more the general public will be protected and it will also help towards the collapse of the tower...
Freeing victims and children who are currently trapped and at its mercy...

"Breaking News: The State of Victoria, Australia, Changes Onus of Proof in Child Sex Abuse Cases..."
sorry about the delay on this, but about a week ago (sunday night?
) at 11:30 central daylight savings time in the us, the bbc news service broadcast provided an in-depth discussion of witness policy, law-suits and criminal proceedings in matters of child abuse, logs of incidents not shared with local authorities and disfellowships.
it was practically the sort of story that many correspondents on this forum have waited years to hear.
That's good to hear that it is being heard around the world :-)
It was shared on here...
Here's the programme on the YouTube channel,
RunFromTheTower, for anyone who missed it :
we all know watchtower doesn't encourage their members do research for themselves.
can anyone point out any articles where it mentions this?
any help would be appreciated.
I couldn't find the fuller video...
It's of this guy saying to only go on websites that they have authorised...
Maybe someone else has that video link, to hand...

By the way, there are 2 current inquiry's in the UK that are investigating Jehovah's Witnesses...
IICSA ~ Independent Inquiry into Child Sexual Abuse
And
Charity Commission for England and Wales
No doubt, this has already been passed on to both of them...
Thank you again... I only saw this because I came here... I need to go on jwvictims.org
more often ;-)
