    The beutiful city in which I live will host a visit from the pope tomorrow. It has led to a fair amount of outcry from those opposed to the catholic church/the current pope.

    People are so aware of the attrocities comitted by this man & most people are able to form an opinion due to the fact that all things are now uncovered almost immediately by the mass media/internet.

    I think it's a wonderful thing. Being able to have all sorts of crimes/attrocities/scandals, openly exposed. There for all to see.

    Not so long ago religion was able to sweep everything under the carpet. Individuals had very little scope to tell their stories. To expose wrongdoing & wickedness within certain organisations.

    The wicked who would like to 'cover up' scandal or protect their pathetic organisations must hate the internet & the availability of information that is now so freely accesable. They must really hate it.

    I say - Get it right up you!

    You are being exposed for the racket that you are.

    The WTS do run their own websites, of course but they must at least view it as a two edged sword that hurts them more than it helps them - especially when internal letters and the elders handbook go on line !

    The Net does not only expose religions, does it ? Wikileaks and all......Those in authority cannot hide their secrets so much now

    jws fail to mention their own flaws sweeping it under the carpet.

    JAMBON1,

    I agree with you. The internet is a curse for religions and any other organizations that have something to hide. And they all do, it seems. That also goes for politicians or anybody running for office.

    If there is dirt on somebody or something, the internet will tell all. I, for one, am grateful for all I learned about the secretive JW religion from internet sites. It made me feel good to see that ALL my suspicions were confirmed and my bad experiences validated by similar stories related by other people.
