The questioning about if women are capable of taking on the role as an elders, made me thing about this video with a talk given by Samuel Herd:

But if he flees the country... That would be very bad for the Watchtower in regards to cooperating with the court. I don't know if the can flee, that is why they are fighting so hard to get him off the hook :P

Watchtower 15th November 2004
When a Witness Is Wise
“A faithful witness is one that will not lie,” continues Solomon, “but a false witness launches forth mere lies.” (Proverbs 14:5) The lies of a false witness certainly can do much harm. Naboth the Jezreelite was stoned to death because two good-for-nothing men falsely testified against him. (1 Kings 21:7-13) And did not false witnesses come forward against Jesus, leading to his death? (Matthew 26:59-61) False witnesses also testified against Stephen—the first disciple of Jesus to be killed because of his faith.—Acts 6:10, 11.
A man of untruth may go unexposed for the time being, but consider his future. Jehovah hates “a false witness that launches forth lies,” states the Bible. (Proverbs 6:16-19) Such a man’s portion will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur—the second death—along with such wrongdoers as murderers, fornicators, and idolaters.—Revelation 21:8.
The faithful witness does not commit perjury when testifying. His testimony is not tainted with lies. However, this does not mean that he is under obligation to give full information to those who may want to bring harm to Jehovah’s people in some way. The patriarchs Abraham and Isaac withheld facts from some who did not worship Jehovah. (Genesis 12:10-19; 20:1-18; 26:1-10) Rahab of Jericho misdirected the king’s men. (Joshua 2:1-7) Jesus Christ himself refrained from divulging total information when doing so would have caused needless harm. (John 7:1-10) He said: “Do not give what is holy to dogs, neither throw your pearls before swine.” Why not? So that “they may never . . . turn around and rip you open.”—Matthew 7:6.

Also, Morrits (sp?) is 90 years old and knows what the letter mentioning a "list" actually meant. If these cases go back to 1950 then I'm sure the list back then was kept on hardcopy. To say there's no list because there's no printout would be obfuscating the issue.
Sounds like the time when they said that they could not comply with the subpoena in the US. Because the files where mixed in with all the other files and it would take years to subtract the child abuse files :P

So this is how they solve the problem with the elders shifting the blame on the branch. They blame each other :P

Labeling one self "Atheist" is Unscientific
by LAWHFol in
1. watchtower
2. beliefs
i have not meet all atheists, and it would be foolish for me to assume that all atheists, share the same prototypical view points.

i am inclined to feel that this classifies the views of a large percentage of atheists.

"atheism is, in a broad sense, the rejection of belief in the existence of deities.

Not quite. I am now just mercilessly mocking you for being a whiner after you bit off more than you can chew. I accused (rightly and demonstrably) of having a bad argument.
You have shown ample evidence to the contrary.
