  Answer: You can't even talk about the stuff discussed during a gathering by one of your superious for fear of incrimination and expulsion!

  ok, by now everybody on this board knows how much i love the peepz over at jwzone.

  really, honestly, i tried not to create this thread, but i couldn't help it with some of the topics which have popped up there in the last couple of days.

  that board is just such a pain to read, it's almost unbelievable.

  There are some really damning statements in THIS beauty of a document. I'm sure this day is going to live in infamy in the minds of victims of abuse who heard this letter in their Halls.

  Even one abused child is one too many. However, in evaluating the evidence, they must bear in mind the Bible's clear direction: "No single witness should rise up against a man respecting any error or any sin .... At the mouth of two witnesses or at the mouth of three witnesses the matter should stand good."

  Same old same old. DNA evidence, of course, is disregarded. Who needs secular science?

  Our position is that the secular authorities deal with crime while elders deal with sin. To avoid a miscarriage of justice elders must not interfere with, prevent, or impede any secular investigation into child abuse. They must ensure that secular laws are adhered to

  Translation: Only go to the police when required to do so by law, otherwise keep it covered up. Delightful!

  The elders know that it is the absolute right of the victim, his or her family or anyone else to report the matter to the authorities, if they so wish.

  But nothing is mentioned about the undertone of this sentence: You may go to the Authorities, but woe is you if you do it without the permission of the Legal Dept.!

  Over the years, as we have noted areas where our policy could be strengthened, we have not hesitated to follow through.

  Translation: When enough Apostates have caused enough turbulence and gotten our horrendously Mideavil (SP?) policies enough attention, then we change them!

  "For the pro­tection of our children, a man known to have been a child molester does not qualify for a responsible position in the congregation. Moreover, he cannot be a pioneer or serve in any other special, full-time service."

  But, such men may still go out unaccompanied in service!

  This letter is exactly what I was expecting, and I guarantee you when this hits the desk of somebody sufficiently important at the BBC, the fit is going to hit the shan for the Tower. MWHUAHAHA.

  Yes, don't look at yourself as an XJW, just look at yourself as a human being. Works wonders, lemme tell ya. I know it can be hard to get out of the rigmarole of the JW life, but you've gotta do it for your own sake...good luck man, hope things are going well that side.

  Hi RF, just wanted to add something, my respect for you in this matter has gone up seeing that you put in that last sentence, the one about her input mattering, but how can that make sense when you say (unless it was just a typo, and I'm open to this possibility because I know you'd never flame someone without due reason) that she posts stupid threads?

  Curious minds want to know!
