  Bobby2446 - is that you Geoffrey Jackson? Your arguments and deflection are identical to your ARC testimony. Geoff, with two ef's, have you not listened to your own advise and followed the slave's dogma, i.e. your own dogma, regarding visiting sites like this? Naughty, naughty, but I forgive you.

  smiddy3 - no other comments?

  Just waiting for the government to release the details and vote through the new legislation to close the loopholes used by religion to claim 'poor.'

  The Catholic Church in Victoria, Australia, uses the same accounting methods as the Jehovah's Witness Church. Interestingly Watchtower Australia claims no assets or real estate in Victoria and under $2million in real estate Australia-wide.

  See news links:

  smiddy3 - "This is not to say that the Slave is perfect and never makes mistakes."

  The Slave made a big mistake in Victoria, Australia, in relation to their failure to comply with mandatory child protection laws, including the working with children laws and police checks for ministers of religion (i.e. every single elder). They were charged with multiple offences and summoned to appear in court.

  So bad was the 'mistake' that they even had it announced by their legal representative (a baptized sister) in public court that they do not exist except as a "theological arrangement."

  The unincorporated JW bodies that failed to attend court and answer the charges can now be sued for the 100's of millions of dollars in fines they were facing.

  Did they ever in their wildest spiritual dreams think that the Prosecutor was ever going to let them get away with it long term?

  Now the money can potentially go to the victims, the JW children, and not the State Treasury. Over Au$300 million in the first round.

  Add to that all the payouts from the Child Abuse Redress Scheme put together by the ARC. Up to Au$150,000 per settlement as determined by the State who will investigate the allegations and not the Watchtower- who will be sent the bill.

  AbusedAndPissed - There is already a legal entity that can be sued.

  Watchtower Australia does not have the assets. See below.

  
  

  The above amount is equivalent to US$1.5 million. That is pretty much all the assets that can be seized in any class action lawsuit. See the link in my above post.

  However the branch committee members and certain JW leaders in Australia are underwritten via US-based insurance on an individual basis. We have the policy account numbers courtesy of the ARC. They can now be sued collectively as the Church of Jehovah's Witnesses instead of Watchtower Australia which is more-or-less a management and consulting company for congregations and elders, but not members of the congregations.

  cofty - put it in the first person as Losch would say it.

  ______________________________________________________

  This is not to say that [I am] perfect and never makes mistakes but Jehovah and Jesus trusts [me] who cares for things to the best of [my] ability and with the best of motives. Shouldn't [you] then trust [me] as well? To appreciate the extent of Jehovah's and Jesus' trust in [me], reflect on what he has promised [me]. He has promised [me] immortality and incorruption. Soon, just before Armageddon, [I] will be taken to heaven.
  

  Since 1919 of our common era, [other men just like me have] been put in charge of some belongings of Christ. According to Matthew 24:47 when [I am] taken to heaven Jesus will then at that point entrust all his belongings to [me]. Does this not reveal immense trust? Revelation 4:4 describes [me] as co rulers with Christ. Revelation 22:5 says [I] will rule, not only for a thousand years but for ever and ever. What immense trust Jesus shows toward [me]. Since Jehovah God and Jesus Christ completely trust [me] should [you] not do the same? ...

  So, whom do you trust? You fully trust in Jehovah, Jesus and [me]. To a reasonable degree you also trust all of your fellow Brothers and Sisters...something else we need to trust in – God’s Word...

  There maybe something psychological about this JW picture which depicts the Armageddon the religion's members pray for. It includes an image of the JW God killing entire families, including children and the dog.

  A few of us XJWs and victims in Victoria, Australia, are following this very closely, as too is one very large and reputable class action law firm that I know of.

  AndersonsInfo - [The link states "Six Beliefs" but the title mentions "Seven Beliefs." Looks like someone goofed!]

  No doubt the seventh belief is that JWs believe they have the best child protection policy in the world. It's just that no one has ever seen it to actually write positively about it, which could be why only six beliefs were written about.
