Child Sexual Abuse and Jehovah’s Witnesses’ Rules – Part 1 of Gumshoe’s Royal Commission Series

by OrphanCrow in

child sexual abuse and jehovahs witnesses rules part 1 of gumshoes royal commission series.

this is a fairly lengthy article describing and examining the royal commission in australia.. the author ends the article with this:.

in general, we see, from watchtower australia, how depriving a person of fellowship was seen as a severe punishment.

LevelThePlayingField

Well isn't that interesting. People are awake and they have been awake the whole time. The world has always been awake to this mess, but not the JW's. Here we see in this news article just how sickening they see it, and for what it really is.

Will the Royal Commission really put some laws in place that will really protect the children of the JW's? I hope so. I also hope it will force them the conform to a more acceptable and practical practice of what is really right in society. But I really have my doubts. Time will tell.

Beth Sarim - yes, calling back those special pioneers into the special pioneer ranks and paying them their stipulation and health insurance once again. I don't think WT will ever do that. But if they get their $1 Billion I think they will send NEW missionaries into the field though, but not recall.

12/13/2015 Yahoo Article about sale of NY property up to 1B$

by Aerodynamic in

i am just posting the article link because i saw it today trolling through yahoo.

wow!

a billion, with a "b" is a big chunk of change.. http://news.yahoo.com/jehovahs-witnesses-could-1-billion-nyc-properties-161102417.html.

LevelThePlayingField

As regards to their selling their properties, to me, bottom line, with $1BILLION Dollars in their pocket, what will they do with it??????

Will they call back all those special pioneers? Now think about this for a minute. This is near and dear to their heart. This gets to the very core of who they really are. The preaching work. But will the All Mighty Dollar prove mightier than the GB is? Time will tell because if they don't call them back into the fields then we know.

Then we really know that the money, the MONEY is the real show, the MONEY is what's really going on and what has the last to say at New York.

If I was a betting man, I would have my money on the money.

What say you?

Well, hey, Jared is the man. He's the one who purchased a big property from the JW's, so he said it himself. At least we have to give credit where credit is due. It's not all bad for the JW's you know.

Elder harassed my mom and asked for donation

by kaik in

my mom had surgery last month and she developed complication and had to be on antibiotics to treat infection.

so, she is recovering slowly, but things was tough on her and she was not attending kh or went to assembly two weeks ago.

nonetheless, elder showed up at her place and instead providing her with comfort he started to harass her that her faith is weak, she does not put trust in jah, etc.

LevelThePlayingField

Kaik - you said it right when you said your mom said, "My last conversation with my mom she told me that people at the apex of the WT behave like medieval royalty and bishops who traveled from castle to castle and eat out from local population."

That is so true. That's exactly how they live here in the U.S. Shameful.

LevelThePlayingField

smiddy - you bring up a good point. That we shouldn't really hold back if we have a topic in mind to bring up. I mean, this is really the only place that I really can express myself and really be me. I can let my true thoughts out and express them as I really am here and no where else.
