However, how DO laws, actions, people's rights get changed?
Money.... doesn't it boil down to money?
So, take them to court, make them pay, change the laws... That is how history has shown that things change.... persistence.... money...
i have been doing research on the arc as some people on here have suggested.
i find it interesting on the case file analysis some of the findings.
it looks like queensland and new south wales had the biggest problems with this.

Like Data Dog asked: What does Jehovah & Jesus think?
That is what the WT should be thinking about.... IF they are the TRUE religion..... IF they want to PLEASE God...... IF they want to SHINE as RIGHTEOUS people..... IF they want to give a good name to God...... THAT should be numero uno, right? No law should HAVE to tell them what to do. They should do it BEFORE the law tells them what to do.
What was Jesus like? Did he need a LAW to tell him to help the Samaritan on the side of the road?
(Matthew 15:3-11) 3 In reply he said to them: “Why is it YOU also overstep the commandment of God because of YOUR tradition? 4 For example, God said, ‘Honor your father and your mother’; and, ‘Let him that reviles father or mother end up in death.’ 5 But YOU say, ‘Whoever says to his father or mother: “Whatever I have by which you might get benefit from me is a gift dedicated to God,” 6 he must not honor his father at all.’ And so YOU have made the word of God invalid because of YOUR tradition. 7 YOU hypocrites, Isaiah aptly prophesied about YOU, when he said, 8 ‘This people honors me with their lips, yet their heart is far removed from me. 9 It is in vain that they keep worshiping me, because they teach commands of men as doctrines.’” 10 With that he called the crowd near and said to them: “Listen and get the sense of it: 11 Not what enters into [his] mouth defiles a man; but it is what proceeds out of [his] mouth that defiles a man.” (Can you say WT lawyer????)
(Luke 16:14-15) 14 Now the Pharisees, who were money lovers were listening to all these things, and they began to sneer at him. 15 Consequently he said to them: “YOU are those who declare yourselves righteous before men, but God knows YOUR hearts; because what is lofty among men is a disgusting thing in God’s sight.
(Luke 10:29-37) 29 But, wanting to prove himself righteous, the man said to Jesus: “Who really is my neighbor?” 30 In reply Jesus said: “A certain man was going down from Jerusalem to Jer′i‧cho and fell among robbers, who both stripped him and inflicted blows, and went off, leaving him half-dead. 31 Now, by coincidence, a certain priest was going down over that road, but, when he saw him, he went by on the opposite side. 32 Likewise, a Levite also, when he got down to the place and saw him, went by on the opposite side.
33 But a certain Sa‧mar′i‧tan traveling the road came upon him and, at seeing him, he was moved with pity. 34 So he approached him and bound up his wounds, pouring oil and wine upon them. Then he mounted him upon his own beast and brought him to an inn and took care of him. 35 And the next day he took out two de‧nar′i‧i, gave them to the innkeeper, and said, ‘Take care of him, and whatever you spend besides this, I will repay you when I come back here.’ 36 Who of these three seems to you to have made himself neighbor to the man that fell among the robbers?”
37 He said: “The one that acted mercifully toward him.” Jesus then said to him: “Go your way and be doing the same yourself.”

YES! Finally, someone who cares more about really helping people than they do about statistics, rules, and statutes.
So proud of that guy!

The reeeeeeaaaaaaaallllllll issue is: why is there a "sex offenders list"?
So that people have a chance to protect themselves. At least they have a chance.
As seen from the Australia Royal Commission, WT headquarters DOES have a 'sex offenders list' of their own, that the GB COULD make available and INSTRUCT elders to warn & inform to protect children, as they repeatedly say "we abhor child abuse".
They abhor it? What do they do about it? They don't comply with court orders, and turn them over.
Even if the law does not require it, they are morally & spiritually responsible to protect these children from being stumbled and protected from offenders.
(Matthew 18:6) 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.
following the news of stuckinarut2, over the past few months my wife has completely mentally woken up.
i've been meaning to post but haven't had the time.
i saw stuckins post and i figured i'd add my news too.
Congratulaaaaaaaaaaaaations!!!!! Welcome ;-) Please ask her (sometime in future) if she can put her two cents in as to what helped along the way!
cha ching!

Exactly, OrphanCrow..... just ice cream money to WT!
Maddening! I hope the courts have just let this time flow by to see the true intentions/ motivations of WT towards the justice system in America.
Perhaps, if THIS becomes the issue, things will begin to change.

Vidiot....
more and more I kind of view WT "anybodies" as calculators.
How long will it take before everyone figures out we are fake?
How long will it take before our dream retirement home is done, and we don't have to worry if they find out it's fake?
How long before we have to go to court, will we have enough money to buy ourselves out of whatever we are in?
cha ching! cha ching! cha ching!

That's an interesting way to put it, and very well said:
"when a member of Jehovah's Witnesses is accused of sexual abuse, congregations have "secret" courts with internal rules that judge cases and "silence the victims."
Perhaps if it is called, what it really is, courts will begin to comprehend the gravity of what JWs do. They have their own court system.
1. They don't have to go to school to learn laws, they make up their own rules
2. They don't have to answer to any "higher" courts (save the GB)
3. "Vicitims" are silenced....
Sounds like what the mafia does.
it's now time to clear out my old literature lest it fall into the right hands.. there is a fairly large range of books, volumes, pamphlets and various keepsakes.
some are unusual, say, part issues of the aid book and a live forever book that has had paragraphs altered in subsequent copies.
i am in hoppers crossing, melbourne.
I think that it is great that you offer them, as all books are like gems, links to the past, proof of insanity, valuable to learn from, preventing or making it harder to lie.
I hope your documentation finds a home.
