First of all.........thank you, Mark Palo, for speaking out. And for Kent & Randy's bringing this information to the web.
And thanks to Nathan Natas (that's satan spelled backwards, btw - a long-standing joke) for asking some difficult - but necessary imho - questions. There was no challenge put forth.....but an honest request for information, and explanations for asking personal questions.
It just makes sense to know a a little pertinent information on both sides. We know how jw's will respond.....we were jw's. But the people of the world respond the same.....no one wants to believe that someone they know (admire/like/love/work with) is a child molester. It's hard for our brain to accept because the person seems so damned normal! So, therefore, the victim/survivor is under suspect - even if it's an enfant. I'm a victim/survivor, and it is part of the process.
To be honest - I had the same questions. Thanks to Mark (hope it's ok with him for me to call him that) for answering. Anyone going after a masters in psych/soc should understand.
Congratulations to Mark for succeeding so brilliantly. It's one thing to survive.....it's another to succeed.As for Greenless? Perhaps now more of his victims will think of speaking out.
