the court on the rule of confidentiality of penitential communications and evidentiary privilege--.. decision reads:.
"the law generally protects the confidentiality of communications with clergy like those of kendrick to the elders here.".
"if the person has a constitutional right to independence in making religious choices, the recognition of an evidentiary privilege is an apt means of protecting that autonomy.
So correct me if I am wrong, but this confirms the Watchtower policy of not having to inform others of a child molester, which surely is negative for the Watchtower meaning that there will potentially be even more cases in the future. The GB do not have to change anything, being detrimental for children, confirming the demonic stance of the bOrg.
Although I look forwards to the Watchtower being hammered further on this aspect, I would rather see the problem solved and children protected.
could someone do me a favor and post the picture on page 9 on the above mentioned watchtower.. i'll point it out, very surprised no one else has picked up on this creepy image..
well, i don't wanna rant too much but sometimes things cut you don't they.. a family member had a get together for the family, jw and non jw and of course i wasn't invited being da'd.. i understand why they couldn't invite me but it just made me think.
in normal society this wouldn't happen.
i'd have been there.. the shunning is so unnatural and damaging.
.the beer is better at "worldy" parties also
thought this had to be made.
if you had to pinpoint the time or experience that finally made you open your eyes, what would it be?.
i think for me it was the time i saw my dad shun his brother who he had not seen in decades just because he was a da'ed jw.
i thought to my self "no way jesus would do that.
just saw something in a german online news channel.. here is the translation:.
pope wants to prosecute bishops covering up abuse.
during his tenure the former pope benedict dismissed hundreds of pedophile priests for child abuse.
Just saw something in a German online News Channel.
Here is the translation:
Pope wants to prosecute bishops covering
up abuse.
During his tenure the former Pope
Benedict dismissed hundreds
of pedophile priests for child abuse.
Very often, however suspected clergymen were displaced,
and allegations of abuse were covered up. Pope Franziskus
wants to
change that:
The head of the
Catholic Church wants to set up a court to fight
against abuse cover up.
The court is to
prosecute bishops who covered up cases
of sexual abuse by clergy in their dioceses.
I think JWs should petition the GB to do the same thing for COs and DOs who cover up child abuse among the congregations. The only problem is that the R&F JWs do not even know that there is a problem. But I do consider this a very positive thing for the Catholic Church to be doing.
talked with a pioneer recently, she was recounting her first experience with cart witnessing.. she brought the subject up, was going on & on & on & on about how wonderful the experience was, and how great, and how she enjoyed it so much, and it was so wonderful, and oh jehovah's blessing, and on and on and on...... a few questions to her revealed what really happened:.
-- a jw who owns a small restaurant in a strip mall allows jws to set up their cart outside his restaurant.
-- the restaurant is tucked pretty far out of the way, not prominent at all.
When looking at this application 1 Co. 13:4,5 comes to mind.
The application is clearly going against this bible text concerning "keeping account of the injury".
Just more rules and going beyond the things written.
