I remember a few years ago a Watchtower article on simony, the buying or selling of privileges in a church setting. The wording struck me at the time. There was one of those "true Christians should" statements that proliferate in the WT: something along the lines of "True Christians should not be giving money in exchange for positions within congregations" or some such (I may have to dig through my old issues of the 'Tower to find it). Whenever an article says something like that, I notice. In this case I took it as 'Tower-speak for "There are people bribing elders, COs, etc. to give them positions of prominence within the congregations and we want it to stop, but we're not coming straight out and saying it because we're not going to admit such an embarassing problem exists in Jehovah's Clean Organisation".
Can anyone point to any similar articles over the last few years where a problem rife in the Org has been discreetly hidden behind this "true Christians should/shouldn't" Newspeak?
How likely are we to see an article in the near future addressing the paedophilia issue by saying "True Christians shoud avoid acts of paedophilia if at all possible" or some such meally-mouthed non-statement.
