  Were you or someone you know sexually molested by a Jehovah's Witness ?

  1. watchtower
  2. child-abuse

  due to the fact there are about 27,000 members of this religion that are known pedophiles, and the information about it is kept in a secret database file, i wonder how many lurking jw's as well as others are aware of the severity of this problem?

  remember, it's 27,000 pedophiles that they know about.

  what about the thousands that don't get caught?

  With the news that in Canada a huge joint child abuse lawsuit is being brought against the WT Society- thought I'd bump this up to let newer posters how prevalent these crimes are within the Jehovah's Witness organization, thanks for any and all comments.

  BROKEBACK WATCHTOWER- I'm glad you had the courage to speak out against your fellow elders trying to appoint a pedophile as a ministerial servant. Good god almighty, what were these elders thinking ? Obviously they weren't thinking. Kudos to you for standing up and doing the right thing.

  BUNGI BILL- I'm glad to hear that this JW you once knew got thrown into prison for molesting children. That's where they all need to be- locked up with the key thrown away so they can't molest and harm anymore children. I'm glad that you're children didn't get harmed when they were young. This is scary shit

  Stuckinarut's theory is spot on I believe. JW's have been preconditioned to think negatively of any inactive marriage mate's that active JW's have. The believing mate IS looked at as a martyr for sure. And looked at in a negative fashion.

  I'm looked at that way from most of my extended JW family - looked at as a " threat " to their alleged " spirituality " . That might be what you're experiencing as well Zeb. Good comment Stuckinarut. Hang in there Zeb- we're here for you. Take care, Peace out, Mr. Flipper

  And then the Mojo album ends with this great song where the solo guitar parts almost remind you of Jimmy Page from Led Zeppelin- I swear. Tom was at a high point here indeed.

  Another very reflective tune by Petty off the Mojo album. This song actually got me bawling like a baby as I was driving to my son's the other day. Very poignant lyrics.

  Wanted to post several songs that Petty did on albums in in 2010 and 2014 which were really good, but folks might not know about. These first 4 songs are off of the album titled Mojo from 2010. Great album I highly recommend it .

  Indeed Dagney, very sad. He had just performed up in Sacramento a little over a month ago as well. I chatted with folks who went to the concert who are deeply saddened as well. Monday was a rough day for everybody with the Vegas killings and Tom dying. I cannot even fathom the anguish that all those families of injured or deceased victims are going through. The only thing that helps me get through it is listening to music. Think I'll listen to my Tom Petty CD's tomorrow driving an hour and a half to work. Take care, Peace out, Mr. Flipper
