O.K. here is the chance for any lurker to reply about the molestation crisis and hiding of such by your own governing body. Please , give me a good sane reason, you have not been informed honestly by your governing body of Jehovah's Witnesses. This is your opportunity to speak. I'm all ears

They will never admit it, because quite frankly, they don't need to. At least they don't to the rank and file. The majority of JWs simply don't believe these allegations. They dismiss them, assuming they even know about them, as lies from apostates.

KEYSER- Yes, unfortunately I know you are right in your assessment. They know the rank and file won't believe it because it alledgedly comes from apostates . But in actuality it was in the court system , and it just annoys and frustrates me that these people are SO BRAINWASHED ! Somehow I feel that by occasionally posting about this, it will wake up people who are doubting the governing bodies silence ! Peace out, Mr. Flipper

O.K. Here I go again. Mr. potstirrer. Considering the NBC news coverage , and the fact that not many lurkers responded to this back when I first started this. I'm going to ask again . Now as of November 24th, 2007 , after seeing nationally televised evidence of the Watchtower societies covering up of child abuse , and it has been documented, are any of you lurking witnesses able to give any of us 1 good reason the Watchtower society didn't admit to fault in these cases ? Why did they try to cover it up ? What are they hiding that you as a Jehovah's Witness need to know more about ? Have you asked yourself that ? I'm bumping this thread back up here to allow you to respond

Flipper,
This topic is as appealing to an apologist lurker as a turd in a punchbowl. They do not have the cajones to address the pedophilia issue.

I have no doubt, it would make no difference whatsoever. I told my brother and father about this and they didn't even seem interested. I think they might have yawned too.
People who can turn on their own kids by following ridiculous rules, and then be ok with earth shattering flip flops, whilst still beleiving these leaders to be dirtected by holy spirit are in need of serious deprogramming and councilling about what the nature of reality is.
I liken this to making a big stinky soup consisting of their literature. You can throw in dead racoons and dog shit if you want, all you have to do is add lots of sugar in the form of promises, ( you will live forever) This soup is good for you! You also have to make people beleive that the the governing body is the best parisienne chef in the world and trust that the ingredients in their literature will improve your health.
Once you've eaten this pile of bull shit, for a long enough time, you get used to it
I think a person in most cases, has to get very sick and lose much, before they are aware that the magic elixor of the GB is harming them.
Cognitive dissonance soup anyone!
I have had celiacs disease for many years and did not realize that bread which contains gluten was destroying my stomach. Who could ever imagine bread, being a staple of western civilization, could be toxic poison. I love bread but it kills me. There are no immediate signs either. The disease slowly gets worse over time.
I liken this ailment to the unaware witness who would never beleive that their (bread) Every utterance of the GB is killing them.
The reason the disease was dicovered was because during the WWII shipments of wheat and rye ceased and one astute doctor noticed that his patients were getting better. It is only the abscence of this so called "spiritual food" that healing will begin. The society has made sure everyone eats their portion of daily crap and have held many folks captive through emotional blackmail.
Eat up boys! and if you don't like every morsel you are fed, we'll not only bar you from the kingdom, we'll turn your whole world as you know it, upside down. We are the the only chefs in town with the right recipe for you!

JK- Yeah, I know you are right. I'm probably just wasting my breath inviting them to respond ! But I just had to test the waters and see if I could get a witness " shark " to bite ! By the way is " a turd in the punchbowl " as appealing as Tyrone's " dead raccoon and shit soup " ? I can't decide which of those possibilities would appeal to me less ! Both seem to be the least of two gross evils. Peace.
TYRONE- Good to hear from you guy! I know it was probably pissing in the wind of me to try to get a witness lurker to respond here , but I at least wanted to throw it out there to them ! That was a great analogy though you made about being duped into eating " dead raccoon and $hit soup . " Wow! But you are right , they don't even realize that following this cult is killing them. It's like they are being poisoned without knowing it . I'm sorry you have celiacs disease . Must be really hard if you like bread . Great response though, thanks . Peace out, Mr. Flipper

WAC,
Are you disfellowshipped yet? If not, you know that's coming, right?
Good for you for having the courage to do what you did despite that!
