    James 5:16 states, as translated in the NWT :

    Therefore, openly confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, so that you may be healed. A righteous man's supplication has a powerful effect. [Lit., " has much force when it is at work."]

    The following questions come to mind:

    1 - Do members of the governing body confess their sins?

    2 - To whom do they confess their sins? Would they ever formally confess their sins to anyone outside the governing body? [I say formally because theymay confide in someone personally, without fear of others becoming aware. However, formally would give the conotation of having to be addressed by spiritual men according to religious guidelines.]

    3 - Have the governing body ever, as a group or individually, and sincerely, ever prayed for Jehovah to heal the wounds of molested children they have become aware of or have knowledge of?
