Good to see that your very first posted message is on this important topic.
Unfortunately, the Watchtower Bible and Tract Society was sucessful in foiling the work of evil apostates amd in making sure this episode will never see the light of day, and Bill Bowen has given up his work with SilentLambs.

Hi Nathan: I see that the UADNA Logo is now invisible. What happened?
Hi Fairmind: Dateline is supposed to air. It is not scheduled yet. If the media can beat up on the Catholic Church, then certainly they should have no problems doing an expose' on the WTS. Be patient, it will eventually show.
Following Bible principles, we will avoid trying to live - or demand others to live - by an extensive and rigid set of dos and don'ts that go beyond the teachings of the Bible. The Watchtower, 4-15-02, pg 22, pp 15

Hi Amazing,
The UADNA logo is running in "Unseen" mode right now. Nothing is wrong, and our people are not looking into it.

The constant delays on the part of Dateline for the airing of the JW pedophile segment may indicate that the Watch Tower has more political clout than the Roman Catholic Church. That is a matter of great concern.
Sincerely,

More likely the recent murders/suicides in Oregon have them looking into that facet as well, and the research adds more time. Meanwhile, why not write a letter to your local news editors.

If the Catholic church, with about a billion membership, is open for criticism, What makes you think that the WT has more clout?? I am sure its either a matter of rescheduling or the network doesn't think it will bring in much interest.

Will, I fear your latter explanation might correct. This subject is becoming commercially ho hum because it's happening every where. The WOW value is deminishing daily. Plus the JWs are such a peewee group - they can't really cut it against the Catholics who everyone knows. Personally I would have thought that Dateline could have created a lot more human interest if they'd done a story on Shunning. They could really rip at the public's heart strings on that subject.

the constant delays in the airing of the dateline episode are proof positive that the WT is an accredited NGO of NBC and that both organization are secretly run by the illuminati, along with microsoft of course, but you all knew that already.

Well, on the second thought, let's not go to Camelot. 'Tis a silly place.

Jesus tap dancing Christ! Why not give new people the benefit of the doubt and assume that just because someone new posts anything at all that its because they just want to know? All they did was ask a question and they're starting stuff? What?!?!?!?!
As for why the Catholic church is getting so much press coverage for molestation while the JW's get hardly any is simple. The Catholic church actually matters in some way or another to the majority (or at least a large percentage of) the population. Mention JW's to the average person and they might think of those weird people that don't celebrate anything and always are trying to get people to buy their magazines. Mention the Catholic church to the average person and they will know of priests, bishops, cardinals, the pope, Lent, Ash Wed., Good Fri., hail Mary's, etc.... Most people around the world probally know who the pope is. Those same people probally don't have a friggin clue who the governing body is or anything about them. I'm not trying to minimize the horrors of being a JW (especially molestation) but comparitively the JW's and their sex scandals are just small potatoes compared to the Catholics. Not only that but the news only has so much time to report that kind of stuff. They can't make every news story be about how religous leaders of any church abuse their members as there actually is other stuff going on in the world.
