Catholic church must remove & report all child sex offenders
by wallsofjericho inhttp://www.thelocal.it/20140205/vatican-must-turn-all-child-abusers-over-to-police-un.
the vatican must remove all child sexual abusers from their posts and turn them over to the police, the united nations children's rights watchdog said on wednesday.. vatican trove of catholic persecution in japan (31 jan 14)advertisement the un committee on the rights of the child urged the holy see to "immediately remove all known and suspected child sexual abusers from assignment and refer the matter to the relevant law enforcement authorities for investigation and prosecution purposes".. in a hard-hitting report, the committee said that the catholic church was still failing to do enough to live up to its stated commitment to stamp out child abuse by priests and lay employees, including in schools.. see also: 'vatican refuses to stop abuse': victims' group.
it underlined its "deepest concern about child sexual abuse committed by members of the catholic churches who operate under the authority of the holy see, with clerics having been involved in the sexual abuse of tens of thousands of children worldwide".. "the committee is gravely concerned that the holy see has not acknowledged the extent of the crimes committed, has not taken the necessary measures to address cases of child sexual abuse and to protect children, and has adopted policies and practices which have led to the continuation of the abuse by and the impunity of the perpetrators," it added.. see also: vatican defrocked 400 priests after scandals.

Well my JW elder dad has lost his job...
by BU2B inas a little background, my dad became a jw in 1980 i think, went to bethel, married my mom in 86' went back for another year and then i came along... he worked in the auto repair shop at bethel while he was there, and upon leaving, continued working in this field.
my whole life they have been the type of jw parents that tell you how you will never get to high school, never graduate it, never get married in this system, never have children in this system etc.. i say this to illustrate the end is just around the corner attitude they have always had, probably because they fully bought/buy into the hype at the conventions/wt articles.
my father has no plan in place for retirement, and he is physically slowing down doing such hard laborious work.

1914 countdown card in 2014 Yearbook
by jwfacts inthe 2014 yearbook has a scan of the 1914 countdown card.
it does not say whether this was published by the watchtower or independently, so please let me know if you have any further information about it.
in typical offensive fashion, the yearbook blames the members rather than themselves for the false expectations held for 1914.. some bible students even carried a countdown card so that they could mark off each passing day.
