canadian justice coming to an end this week, hopefully
by needs_lots into all who have been following my lawsuit against the society here in canada, the judge is to make her decision this week.
it has been a long 8 months since the trial, but we are keeping our fingers crossed that she makes the right decision when it comes to protecting the children (and myself) from the wrongs of the society.
we have not heard yet if she needs more time, so friday is the end of her extension.

by lilacs4everr inif anyone has access to letters sent to bodies of elders in the united states last year, i need your help.
there was a letter read to the congregation shortly after the dateline expose on child abuse.
but, at the same time, the society also sent a letter to the elders only stating that if anyone in the congregation reported abuse that they should not be sanctioned.

abuse and cults clearly defined, You have to read this!
by needs_lots ini have just reading a great book by sylvia brown, the other side and back, and i found a very interesting quote i wanted to share with all of you.the quote best describes the jehovahs witnesses and the abuse i suffered.. sylvia brown says.
"cults and abusive relationships have a lot in common.
they thrive in isolation and secrecy, which promote control and dependency and systematically eliminate alternative places for the cult member/abused to turn.

Catholics Superior to Watchtower?!
by metatron inso, the catholic church is using sleaze ball lawyers to try to weasel out of child molester lawsuits.. (they were asking for it/blame the victim defense).
on the other hand, liberty magazine (jan/feb 2003) says "to it's credit, the catholic church appears to have cooperated.
in mediation, when possible".
