  How about a garlic necklace? The garlic bread is so "Anthony Morris", and hey, the necklace could really send a message. : D

  court denies summary judgement for laurel jehovah's witnesses congregation.

  a motion for summary judgement is denied in a case against the laurel congregation of jehovah's witnesses and some individuals over child abuse reporting issues.a lawyer for the congregation maintained that elders were exempted from reporting requirements under a state law because of clergy privilege and confidentiality.the case resulted from allegations that elders did not report an unlawful sexual relationship between a woman and a 14-year-old boy, both of whom were members of the jehovah's witnesses congregation.. download the court opinion here.

  reading comprehension

  Yes, I have found this skill sadly lacking in some posters; either that, or they are being remarkably disingenuous. : P

  Yeah...just wait until that case in Newfoundland moves ahead.

  Yes, that's right @ OC. I was wracking [what's left of] my brain, because I knew there was something. Still waiting to see names (or may have missed info), since I knew quite a few in that area, back in the day. Very sad, but I am always glad to see the secrets come out (that is healthy) and the Tower exposed for what it truly is. Not a Paradise, but a Dungeon.

  I have no more to say to the troll, and I see that D-D,(ahahaha, love Nelson!) already said it best.

  JW clergy are acting within the law when they do not report child abusers

  fisherman That is a blanket statement, and you do not speak for the world. In Canada, they are criminals. Period.

  They enjoy neither the same 'privilege' as lawyers (puh-leaze!), nor the confessional.

  nonjwspouse - they have claimed they are not clergy, since the days of colporteurs! Liars ; filth. They make me sick.

  It would be great if a 'win' like this happened in Canada - we could all write and push for criminal prosecution. It is federal law for any adult to fail to report, but especially those are charged with the care of children; eg, teachers, coaches, health care professionals, clergy ...

  That is good to hear that these monsters are being exposed for what they are, and thanks OC, for updating us on so many vital things. t .
