when there's a malfunction in a product that causes an injury or death, the head of the corporation is held accountable not the salesmen selling the product.
.
why aren't the governing body members being investigated when they are the root cause of the child abuse issues and the re-victimization that takes place after?.

the police are saying this is a hate crime.. it sounds like a lot of of jws are really mad .
Yeah, this sounds fake. No witness I ever knew would ever write something like that. For one, they don't refer to the organization as "Watchtower". They would put "The Society" or "Jehovah". Also, this is far too bold for an active witness. Witness are trained to be extremely passive-aggressive.
i am in awe of you two.
i think what you have done to stand up to a multinational, wealthy cooperation is a thing of true courage.
i want to say, "i am sorry for the abuse you have suffered and subsequent pain the both of you have had to endure by individuals who were supposed to be there to protect you.
Very sweet of you Defianttruth.
I haven't watched the entire commission, just about to finish the first one. I am very sorry you experienced one of the top worst crimes a person can endure. You didn't deserve it. I am happy to hear you are free and hope you've found a sense of peace and happiness.
A hug to you as well.

I've been away from the whole JW thing for a while, but I truly do not understand their reasoning here...it makes absolutely no sense and is a totally unnecessary self-inflicted wound . I obviously have no proof, but from the outside this really smells of hiding deeper secrets very high in the food chain by persons who were in the past involved in some very nefarious things and now hold critical positions. Just my opinion.
Axelspeed I wouldn't put a pedophile ring past them.
i posted a topic with personal contact information on it.
such stupidity and i do deeply apologise to the person and the commission.. it has been taken down thank fully.. this morning i came skulking out of my cave, and with trepidation started the computer and checked my emails.............. there was a lovely compassionate email from the staff at rc telling me not to be too upset at what i had done.
they said they understood and it was important that i not get too distressed at the error.. then they said they were thankful for all the support and gratitude being shown to them from various parties and other places.
i'm reading some documents from the royal commission and i don't get it, why so much concern for the accused and his reputation???
i'm starting to think maybe some gb members have things like this in their past, because a normal human being would not take the side of a sexual predator over a child....united states branche x e c u t i v e o f f i c e sto watch tower societyaustraliagsc/as january 21, 1999 no.
176sit is understood that if the law requires elders to report cases of child abuse, they should complywith the law and do so.
I have a theory - there's obviously way more pedophiles we're aware of.
The organization may be infested with them top down. If they get rid of all the pedophiles, who'll be left to continue on marrying and impregnating JW women, further passing down the cult from generation to generation?
If they get rid of them, there won't be enough men to serve as elders, and other top positions of slavery.
Another thought comes to mind - induce trauma into the members and you'll more easily be able to inflict the teachings in their mind and put them under mind control. The continuation of sexual abuse may very well be an intentional method of keeping the members under their spell.
i have listened to segments of the hearing.. i am really impressed with the way the rc are well informed about jw procedure and the 'flock book'.. does anyone know how the rc got so clued up?
are they just that good at what they do?
(not saying they're not).. have 'mentally diseased apostates(tm)' been of use to the rc?.
why would you proceed to invite me to their meetings?
wtf?
how much clearer can i make my stance????
hello to those following what is going in australia with our royal commission.. i want to let all those abused, neglected, shunned and blamed that i understand why you may not front the rc.
the wtbts is hoping you will consider yourself an invalid complainant, because you are not or were not.....baptised.
if you were abused at a young age and you told on your dad or the bad man that did it.......you would have been taken aside by the overseer and read scriptures about lying and being immoral; even if you didn't know what that word meant.
Thank you for starting this post. My heart goes out to you and I am sorry this all has happened. Having been a partner of a victim of WTS sexual abuse, I have seen the horror it's caused with the awful symptoms. We have to encourage victims to come forward. None of you are alone. Place the shame, guilt and fear where it belongs - the WTS from top down. They should be ashamed, guilty and fearful of their asses being grilled and putting their disgusting needs over the safety of children.
I recently found out with the help of one of the loving members here that the pedophile who abused my love is a reputable executive/director/businessman related type of many organizations and that his top online personal interests are listed as "children" - feeling disgusting and furious is an understatement. He's a Jehovah's Witness in good standing.
We support you.
i just found these vidoes on youtube, maybe you have seen them already, but i thought i would share.
these canadian kids for me are courageous and inspiring.
more excellent public examples of non vitrial apostate awakening.
