"""So if we know that a brother or a sister has fallen into such wrongdoing, we should encourage that one to approach the elders and seek their help. (Jas. 5:13-15) If he or she does not do so within a reasonable period of time, though, we should report the wrongdoing." """

I understand the "we" to mean you and I - the R & F reporting it to the elders [not the police] if the perpetrator or guilty one does not approach them on their own. It could be knowledge of adultery / smoking etc etc [Any Serious sin as per WT definitions]

Royal Commission live Today

by LostinJapan in

tuesday 4 _ .

case study 29 .

AFRIKANMAN

sparrowdown - On the button - that overly ...ever so humble .....not that I wish to offend your Honour tone got my Hemroids in a tizz I tell you !

Yet if any R & F member had phoned Service Dept prior to this ARC and taken up the issue of the following:

The Commissioner told Spinks that because they make a detailed examination and have their own internal process of dealing with abuse cases, they have therefore made themselves responsible for the need to report. Spinks confirmed that they think it is the individual's right but the Commissioner pointed out that the elders themselves have made a decision as to whether a person is guilty or not and therefore have this responsibility of knowing that they have identified a criminal
There are laws that deal with people who are hiding a criminal or are fully aware that there is a known criminal and they would clearly know if the abuser confessed.......................

..................You could have ended up in a JC for speaking against Gods channel/ Divisiveness / fomenting apostasy and a string of related "charges".

Australian RC - Hot topic

by punkofnice in

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?.

AFRIKANMAN

I think PunkOfNice said it ....................This is the first time we are seeing Elders not performing on their own stage and they are totally out of depth here - They cant interrupt when they feel like it, falsely accuse when they feel like it etc and they are looking worse than stupid - "A string of Gormless Elders"

IN fact today deRooy could not even articulate and correctly quote the 2 witnesses Scripture - he had to look it up and then made this lame excuse that one would have to read the context first to which the Judge countered and put an end to that - after which came that trump card remark/question regarding whether the executing of awomen for adultery was to be taken literally seeing that the 2 witness scripture was !

harare, zimbabwe (ap) zimbabwe has accused a pennsylvania doctor of illegally killing a lion in april, as it seeks to extradite a minnesota dentist who killed a well-known lion named cecil in july.. jan casimir seski of murrysville, pennsylvania, shot the lion with a bow and arrow near hwange national park, without approval and on land where it was not allowed, said zimbabwe's national parks and wildlife management authority.. landowner headman sibanda was arrested and is assisting police, it said.. seski, a gynecological oncologist who directs the center for bloodless medicine and surgery at allegheny general hospital in pittsburgh, is a big-game hunter according to safari outfitters and bow-hunting sites.

kill shots on the sites identify "dr. jan seski" as the man standing next to slain animals including elephants, a hippo, an ostrich and antelopes such as an impala, a kudu, and a nyala.. seski did not respond to messages left by the associated press at his home and with an answering service for his medical practice.

AudeSapere Tread cautiously with the facts and ...as ol Edward De Bono said : Consider all Factors [CAF]

Is he a witness?? Remember bloodless surgery is being practiced in many places now - So heading up the Dept. does not make him a witness.

The debate around trophy hunting vs "other" hunting eg to make Jerky [we call it Biltong in my country] vs hunting per se is massive in my country right now [South Africa] - and indeed in Zimbabwe al la Cecil the Lion.

Could you perhaps find out if he is a JW? Then it will indeed be another dark day in JWville! I am directly connected to a very vociferous conservation group SANWILD

Please attempt to establish if there is a JW connection here!

Bloodless Surgery Depts are not only about JW's so this connection may be coincidental!

If he is a JW then this will prove to be another dark day in JW-Ville.

The debate around hunting / trophy hunting is huge right now in my part of the world.

I am also closely associated with this org: http://www.sanwild.org/
