that watching the world blurb is a slap in the face of the victims within the wtbs..why dont they mention their own law suits?why dont they mention that they want to NEVER shelter pedaphiles? what about their own moral laxities?
I must stress I have no 'inside' knowledge, however that piece may be more significant than we first imagine, when considered through the lens of WT infighting...
As you probably know, Service Department can't stand Writing Department: they consider them a bunch of left-wing 'softies' without the backbone to manage a mutinational corporation, errrrm, organisation.
By the same token, Writing can't stand Service, viewing them as a bunch of hard-line Pharisees who wouldn't know the "love of the Christ" if it slapped them in the face.
Writing are as concerned about the child abuse situation as many of us are (after all, it's not any of their guys in the dock, the whole mess is Service's baby.).
Going back in time for a moment, in the matter of the restructuring of presidential and governing body authority, RVF tells us (CoC 65-73) that material in the magazines (prepared by Writing) could be used to advance their own agenda, in this case that the GB rather than the president had the final authority.
So what if this snippet in Watching the World, and any other similar such items that may appear in the magazines, are Writing's way of undermining Service's position and authority, especially within the GB itself? After all,
they've nothing to lose by taking the 'moral high ground.'
Or am I just being delusional again?
