Slimboyfat, I am not and never have been a JW, so I obviously am not an apostate. Abusing and molesting children is against the law and the JW's want to act like it doesnt exist and not prosecute members to the fullest. The catholic church has been having to deal with publicity over this issue, why not JW's, or any other religion who practices coverups such as this. I think its horrible and if you or anyone in your family were molested, you would do everything in your power to try and stop it from happening to anyone else. I would hope you would anyway, I like to think that mankind has a little more dignity and respect for each other than that.
