Watershed moment???

by sparrowdown in

will this rc turn out to be the beginnings of a watershed time in wbts history?.

do you have any thoughts regarding this?.

A mutual friend [to me and the Forum] managed to get a major news channel here to run with the story and it certainly got picked up by a Heavily-In relative ...so maybe we should all "get it out there" to the extent possible.

I have mailed a string of JW's with Quotes and Links - Zippo responses thus far but they have received the info.

I also reminded those e-mailed that they always go on about "Leave it in Jehovah's hand he will sort it out" - Well just maybe this is one such a sort-it-out moment in time eh !

what do you think

AFRIKANMAN

blondie " You are what we call a shit-stirrer here, apropos considering your username." WTF are you ranting about ?? Your comments hardly made much sense either ! Are you now a self-assuming "heavy" on the forum because of your long-standing membership here ...or can we blame it on the blue Moon ?

I did not see anything untoward with what the poster "poopie" said [btw I like that name!]

Calm down ...breathe ! Don't forget the meds!

this is from conti's appeal veredict:.

monica applewhite, a clinical social worker and an expert on child sexual abuse, testified for defendants that watchtowers policy against disclosing private information .

very closely mirror[ed] the codes of ethics of the national association of social workers and the american counseling association.

Marvin - respectfully - I think the reference to "prostitute" is misunderstood by you in this instance - It could just as easily have applied if the Dr was male. Come on - your eloquent writings have a Favourite spot on my computer - you have misread this.

newsaug 1, 2015. martin mckenzie-murray the jehovahs witnesses fiercely literal reading of the bible has distanced them from the law and politics, but the royal commission into child sexual abuse is ending that..

WT Lawyer trying to force His Honour to allow Miss Apple to garner more info showing how good WT is

by umbertoecho in

hello to all who are watching.

his honour is being tested by wt lawyer in the last thirty minutes of day 4. the lawyer wants to bring in updates on the societies handling of child molestation cases.. his honour tells the lawyer that if he "lawyer" wants a contest between who is better than who....forget it.. his honour is slightly pissed off as wt lawyer just won't back down and insists that this evidence is very important and........"progressive" ( i think ) his honour then continues to tell nice wt jerk type lawyer, that if he thinks this will dispel all that happened to past victims..........think again.. i rough summary but fairly accurate people......god, that wt lawyer is a hateful lying, scheming son of a bitch........

umbertoecho One of the highlights of the day for me was that interchange.

Also Day 4 Segment 4 at 06:00:00 where the Judge highlights the fact that the JW case is the most reprehensible of them all [including RCC] so far !

I have been following while reading some of the Transcripts. This is becoming an addiction !

royal commissions- what the *bleep* do i know about them?royal commissions seem to be called into anything nowadays but do you know what they actually are?.

An RC does have enough clout btw to enable Criminal Proceedings to follow findings within a commission - Not directly within the RC but post its hearings [See the Definitions on RC's]

anyone know who this monty baker is?

i'm sure this guy will be able to tell the rc how things work behind the scenes without all the evasiveness, being that he is an "apostate".
