  WBTS goes to Court of Appeal (Charity Commission investigation)

  by Mephis in

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  after a number of high profile cases where both children and survivors clearly weren't adequately protected, the charity commission here in the uk launched an investigation into the wbts as a whole here in britain.

  the main concerns are around the child safeguarding policies being inadequate.

  wbts have fought every step of the way so far.. wbts have been to the high court, who told them to complain to the proper tribunal.. wbts have been to the proper tribunal, who told them that too darn right there were suitable grounds for the charity commission to want to investigate their inability to protect children.. and now the wbts have gone back to the court of appeal to demand that the charity commission inquiry be halted.. i hope the court of appeal tells them that, yes, they too need to have proper safeguarding measures for children and to get on with co-operating with the investigation.. https://www.gov.uk/government/news/charity-commission-defends-its-investigation-into-jehovahs-witness-charity-in-the-court-of-appeal.

  Question: I seem to remember a Kingdom song that said, "we must watch how we talk,

  watch how we walk" something like that. True????

  Gas Pump "Witnessing"....Is this a thing?

  i've seen this twice now within a month.

  a car group hanging out at a gas station.

  one of the cult members jumps outs of their car and runs up to a "worldly" gas pumper, arm stretched out, tract in hand, and here comes the juvenile at best question.

  In my area L.A Calif we have the largest homeless population, why not

  spend time with those folks. Give them some words of encouragement, that is

  where they should focus their time, you can walk for blocks downtown L.A. and

  see folks living on the street. The bible said Jesus preached to the needy not someone

  who drove up a golden chariot, (car today).

  I'm sure they reason let the government take care of the homeless , I pay my taxes.

  average joe. NO, NO ,No.. raping is wrong whoever does it. No the point that was a extreme case and the law was involved and he was arrested. Yes he should be put away I agree. But my point, there have been people who was

  df 4-5 times as above mention, not for rape but other offense.

  was not sure where to post this, but i was curious, how do some of you now feel about the military?

  would any of you let your children enlist, or would you yourselves join any military field?

  how do you feel about the idea of women in the military?

  It is so crazy to df a mentally challenged person and reinstate them, that's an

  area where there should be new light. If found out the person has mental problem

  after baptism, then give them a break. Don't df the person, just state his baptism

  was revoked. It's nuts to df someone 4-5 times, that shows something is wrong with that person.

  Come to think of it, what if you had a mental breakdown and committed a gross sin, but you

  actually had a breakdown. You ran through the streets in your birthday suit or you walked up

  to sister 80 and grabbed her breast, sure you would try to help the brother, but would he be df.

  One day they will df those who believe they are of the anointed, anyone today who are just joining

  the ranks of the anointed (the last few years), have a problem.

  Tempest: was he reinstated.. He was nuts, having a mental breakdown. Don't kick a man

  when he down. Plus Jehovah can read hearts and his holy spirit should have inform the

  Elders. OK I'm just kidding with you. It is a funny story " people realized that he had actually gone nuts".

  The organization will do that to you. LOL
