That's not the issue man. This is the issue.
Has he committed crimes? Hand him over to the POLICE. We are not the police. Unless you want to be the thought police, like the Watchtower. I don't care about his private life, I don't care about his channel. No one cared about the wife and children when they posted private s*** online. Crimes are a matter for the police, lots of rumours and allegations he f****** children but no effing proof. But hey, if you want tear the "community" down, at least have the courage to be intellectually honest about it.

Lloyd Evans calling Anthony Morris...'' an arrogant, pigheaded, smallminded, homophobic, asshole,'' because he went out and bought one thousand dollars of liquor.
How dare he expose a member of the Octopope theocrat rulers of 8 million brainwashed cult members? Disfellowship him! Shun him! Off with his head!!!

Wake me up when evidence that Anthony Morris III is an alcoholic and used JW funds to purchase very nice scotch is brought to light. I don't follow him and don't give him money. Making a big deal and creating a hashtag about an out of context purchase of Scotch to take a person down is Pharisaical, no one looks good. I don't give a flying flamingo about his private life.
Thank you for clarifying that this is about taking a person down even if you have to torch the "community" whilst doing it, rather than actual concern for alleged crimes involving minors.

Wake me up when evidence that he had sex with minors is handed to the police, which is what should have been done in the first place. I don't follow him and don't give him money. Destroying this so-called community to take a person down is Pharisaical, no one looks good. If he has committed crimes, report him to the ruddy police. I don't give a flying famingo about his private life.

Mrs. E and the children and the sex workers are the victims. I find it hard to believe anyone here is truly all that upset or worried about them or their welfare.
Did the person who started all this get permission from the wife to post these things on flaming Reddit? If not, that would be telling.

If people have evidence of him being paedophile they should turn it over to the relevant authorities. Rumour, hearsay, and faulty logic will only add to the truism that you can take the JW out of the cult but you can't take the cult out of the JW.

It’s not judgement. It’s (deserved) condemnation.

Don't confuse empathy and decent behavior toward someone who is in a hellish (self inflicted) situation, as the condoning wrongdoing...
I second this motion.

14 pages of comments...seriously ???, And one more self righteous than the next....the mob mentality taking place here is textbook...Geeez...let go of your pearls ladies and give it a rest .
What say we give Lloyd a break here and hate on me for awhile... go ahead I can take it...let's see how many down votes it will take to calm this Jr. high feeding frenzy.
( unbelievable...and to think these folks were once my "brothers" what happened??)
I concur. I left the Watchtower ages ago, I will not become like the very organisation I was born into which took me ages to be able to leave. My whole family, all my former "friends", are all still in—I still have narcissist BPD family I have to protect myself and my sanity against, something that will go on for the rest of my life as long as the Watchtower still stands. I lost everything when I left. I hope we ex-jws never come close to what the caption in the picture below says.

Did you have a Narcissistic JW Parent?

did anyone else have a parent who could be described as highly narcissistic who was a jw?

how was that for you growing up?

which was worse - the narcissistic religion or the narcissistic parent?.
alecholmesthedetective

My father is a narcissistic man, now an elder, to make matters worse. My mum pretty much just submits. I have had to stay away for my own sanity, he had a hold on me even after I left home because I was still a JW trying to please him. Now, I tried setting boundaries and when he totally and utterly ignored them, I cut him off. I just feel sorry for my younger sister who still lives with them and whom I won't be able to help in a long time. This religion needs to burn to the ground, it gives people like my father a license to ruin his children's mental health and lives.

How Affected By Jehovah’s Witness News Are You At This Point In Your Life?

i’ve been out for many many years.

i still like to know the latest jw news although i find myself not as excited by things..
alecholmesthedetective

I 'packed my things and left' the borg for my own sanity and freedom, leaving family and friends behind. The borg still looms over my life, because of family and friends in it, and running into people in my new life who I find out are JWs. As long as the borg exists, I'll be affected by it, I hope less and less as the years go by.
