Great comments folks ! I appreciate your takes- very good ones indeed !
DINAH- Thanks for the compliment ! After about an hour on the phone with this guy - I guess I kind of did tire him out , as he kept sighing at the end asking, " Any more questions ? " as if he had answered my first questions significantly enough ! Not.
VOIDEATER- The WTS always seems to have excuses . Their whole scheme involves copping out on their people, elders , and children ! There definitely needs to be a paper trail - calling from anomynous phone booths just doesn't cut it !
WHA HAPPENED - Yes , it's weird. On the one hand the WTS decries obeying Caesar when it conflicts with God - then in this situation they'll obey Caesar just to save face when necessarry .
BUMBLE BEE- Very true ! The WTS always ends up blaming the victims ! Grandfathers being busted ! Jeez. The old geezers should have been busted years ago ! They should report child abuse whether states require it or not. The WTS really leaves the elders and publishers hanging out to dry !
THE ORACLE- Personally , I think the GB and Watchtower society are a combination of ineptitude and being evil ! It's a twin billing ! If they really cared about child abuse victims - they would report child abuse in every state ! They only use Caesar's laws - when it's to their advantage !
BILLY the EX BETHELITE- I think all of Bethel , the governing body , and the legal " Watchtower society " are so stuck in their crap - it's turning into quicksand ! This organization is sinking ! Peace out, Mr. Flipper
