Basic problems with JW molestation approach
by comment in1. they may indeed have a policy.
but the policy is full of loopholes that can be exploited either by molestors wishing to escape punishment or elders who want to keep the congregation's reputation looking squeaky clean.
worse yet, they evidently don't follow even this flawed policy all the time either!.

Good ol' dress, grooming and entertainment
by comment inwhen did the phrase "dress, grooming and entertainment" become such a mantra for the watchtower society?.
this may just be my impression, but in the late 1970's and early 1980's, there didn't seem to be a part on every district convention and circuit assembly program about "dress, grooming and entertainment.
" but in the 1990's, there sure was.. even as a faithful witness, i started to find this emphasis a little embarrassing.. i mean, couldn't there be something more important to worry about?
