Witnesses Agree That Institutions That Don’t Report Child Abuse Should Be Fined
by cha ching intoday my husband was on his way to meet a friend.
the purpose of the meeting was to discuss how to have a bill introduced into congress, which would require non-profit institutions to report child abuse to the authorities.
the penalty for not reporting would be a fine.. one of the motives behind this effort, is to raise awareness about child sex abuse.

Why would Watchtower fight Stratton Ohio
by John Davis inwhy would watchtower sue stratton ohio, and then laud it over and over in their books?
the town doesn't even have 300 people, why would they pick on such a small town.

Restrictions
by snugglebunny inwhat kind of restrictions are people put under when their behaviour has been considered worthy of disfellowshipping but have managed to avoid the big "d"?.
me (going back a bit):.
1. never to be in the company of the lady unchaperoned although we were "betrothed".. 2. removed from ministerial servants position.. 3. not allowed to pray in the congregation at all, including book study.. 4. removed as watchtower study conductor.. 5. removed as public speaker and talks at service meetings.. 6. removed as pioneer.. 7. report to po once a month.. amazingly, i missed none of those things and relished the freedom from responsibility.
