Such simple questions by Angus make it very clear that these men have no real ability to protect..

He simply repeats what he has been told by the FDS, "if a person is repentant, he is allowed to attend meetings, and we would keep an eye on him" ...

And what if he had been an abuser of his family, would you be able to watch him in the home?

No...

JW EXPERT WITNESS FLOORED BY COMMISSION OF INQUIRY LAWYER

by steve2 in

much has already been written about dr monica applewhite, the expert witness hired by the jw organization.

her job was to provide "expert" testimony to the australian commission of inquiry into jehovsh's witnesses' policies and practices on child sexual abuse.

astonishingly, dr applewhite was unprepared for the inquiry lawyers' questions.

umbertoecho: tell your family, "it's not persecution, it's accountability"....

I love this phrase, I read it on another topic here (can't remember who, sorry)

Perhaps ask them if any of the victims have had their lives torn apart, or if they had been "stumbled", and if they remember how Jesus felt about matters as these.

(Matthew 18:2-6) 2 So, calling a young child to him, he set it in their midst 3 and said: “Truly I say to YOU, Unless YOU turn around and become as young children, YOU will by no means enter into the kingdom of the heavens. 4 Therefore, whoever will humble himself like this young child is the one that is the greatest in the kingdom of the heavens; 5 and whoever receives one such young child on the basis of my name receives me [also]. 6 But whoever stumbles one of these little ones who put faith in me, it is more beneficial for him to have hung around his neck a millstone such as is turned by an ass and to be sunk in the wide, open sea.

Watershed moment???

by sparrowdown in

will this rc turn out to be the beginnings of a watershed time in wbts history?.

do you have any thoughts regarding this?.

I think that with all the "CONFIDENTIAL" letters that the Aussie Gov got a hold of, and posted, it will be easier to see through the smoke screen, and behind the curtain of the GB. Many lawyers will love it!

Never before have people had this official documentation in their hands, being able to see the cold-heartedness of these 'men of God.'

Page 6 of the same letter from the Branch:

Factors to consider: This direction could apply in several situations, such as: When a “known” former child molester begins attending congregation meetings; when a judicial committee determines that a child molester is repentant and will remain a member of the Christian congregation; when a child molester is disfellowshipped and later cleans up his life and is reinstated.

But what happens when they know of a "worldly" sex offender living in the area?

Whenever the elders are notified of a known sex offender living in the territory, they are to mark the address on the territory card as a “Do Not Call.” Thereafter, two elders should visit these addresses every six months to a year to give the individuals an opportunity to hear the good news and verify whether the sex offender still lives there.

GUIDELINES FOR BRANCH SERVICE DESK USE ONLY—September 1, 2005 7.

Should the elders ask a man who is reaching out for congregation privileges if he ever molested a child?

Answer: No. It is not the duty of elders to query an individual about whether he ever molested children. It would also not be appropriate for elders to meet with brothers reaching out for privileges to make them aware of what is stated in the January 1, 1997, Watchtower. The point the elders should have in mind is that they should avoid recommending any man “known” as a former child molester. Factors to consider: When the branch office approves a recommendation for one to be a m
