I think part of the problem is a lot of people still see JWS in a good light. Not everyone believes the media, and even if they do, how bad has it hurt the catholic church? People still revere the Pope. My doc thinks they are some of the nicest people he has known. They are for the most part clean living and honest. At least that is the input i get from coworkers. To show them up, it will be hard- Ripping the lid off this house of white washed graves. There will have to be a lot more media coverage to get people interested in this. Things seem ot go in cycle with the media. They focused on cults in the 60-80, and there was a lot of interest. Now it is child porno and abuse.Who knows what will happen to blow their cover. Perhaps a child of an well known person? Also, remember the Ta,mmy faye baker scandals? We all thought it was the end of organized religion. it was not. people still whatch those revolting shows and give them money. people will just refuse to believe naything bad about their religion. The followers of Baker and such all claim it was evil persucution (sp) form the devil. go figure. and then there was the big deal about repressed memories and how therapits induce them. There for a while therapits were being sued. I know a doc who got sued sucessfully for dx a MPD and telling her family. But u don't see it in the news anymore .It is still a problem.
News has become a show all its own. The more scandal the better. So people are not tenidng to take stuff seriously-no more than i take the national enquirer seriusly.
