I think its great to keep what is happening alive, as not all can check the web every day. After a day or two, a 'hot story' is buried, and maybe a new (or even a regular) person misses it.
I have heard from one friend that she had missed the whole Trey Bundy reporting, and she follows the JW thing on different FaceBook pages. She was happy to hear.
Thx NikL.... you never know who you helped!

Hey 3rdgen, Yay, you are free! Go for your authentic self!
I just got a t-shirt today "Be yourself, everyone else is taken".
I had just been wondering what was going on with you, since I haven't seen you on the board in a while.... I keep reminding myself, 'all things come to an end'... one way or the other.
2017, good year to start anew.... I hope we can meet up this year.
Hugs & love to you, cha ching

Honest Questions About Child Abuse
by Richard Oliver ini have two honest questions for everyone here.
i understand that most here want retribution from the courts against watchtower for child abuse allegations.
but let us take away the instances where someone was accused of child abuse and then later put back into a position of authority, such as an elder or an ms. let us just take the cases where a regular publisher or even an appointed person, with no previous accusation of child abuse has come up against that person.

"Freedom of Religion"..... the most valued of all commodities... why? it allows people to commit all kinds of crimes "done in the name of religion"
"Freedom from Sexual Abuse"..... what value is placed on this?

I actually asked them if they expect people to simply say yes to every thing and accept whatever they say. I pointed out that they are asking people to change their entire lives and so it makes sense that people would question everything they say, until it's proven right."
Good point redVip!
They are asking people to change their entire lives w/o question...

"If Bundy's claims are accurate, the WBTS and Jehovah's Witnesses who run it, seem to be using the First Amendment defense to allow it to run it's own internal court system when it comes to child sex abuse."
Sounds like the same conclusion that the Australian Royal Commission came to....

I am grateful to Trey & his investigative work, and to all here who keep him in 'the news.' (thx, defender of truth!)
I know that we here may have heard this info before, but many haven't. I was on FaceBook, and a friend (ex-JW) I.M.d me, very excited, she had just seen the Canadian News show @ child abuse. After all these years, she had never been exposed to the extent of the child abuse in the org, and had never even heard of Trey Bundy & Reveal News!!
Think of how many people join this forum each day!
