TO Sword of Jah,
It is very obvious that you have never been abused sexually or molested or that someone dear to you such as daughter or niece have never been abused.
I know four victims that were abused by JW men/elders. You say that they are to get $$$. In what line did you stand to get your 'brain?'
Tell Mr. intelligent, self declared expert, PhD, MD, how do help a victim who sought the 'elders' help just to hear "IT HAS ONLY BEEN 16 YEARS OF YOUR LIFE?" Up to that point it was ALL her life.
What do you do when your own little sister calls you crying so hard you can't understand a word she is saying because she just had a 'nightmare' and she has just relieved the abuse. "Her mouth being shut by the abuser. Her body beaten. Then the abuser giving his 'talk' from the platform on 'cleanliness' and being an exemplanary JW? Her soul permanently marked by deep scars that haven't even begun to heal.
How do you erase the "memories" that maybe she'll never be able to be intimate with someone because of all the memories, and how about that she might never be able to be mother due to that 'infection' that she had when she was about 6 or 7 years old??
Much damage has been the WTS. How about when all of our family remembers that we were stopped cold by the PO elder from going to speak to a detective? Or how about when that PO elder who lead the committee tha DF my stepfather less than 10 years later gets DF for abusing his own DAUGHTER? How do you think that makes our family feel? And that is the elder's third time being DF.
THE WTS is sick & all it's worried about is loosing $$$$$$$$$$ because the people are finding about the "WICKED WTS & that it's not what it claimed to be". THE wts's image has been damaged permanently by their own doings by NOT protecting the children. THink about NO ONE will want to join such a "nasty" organization who goes to court on the "PEDOPHILES" side. Who gives a damm if they are repented or not. THE DAMAGE HAS BEEN done.
The WTS will reap what it has sowed for many years. The victims will prevail. THE WTS is slowly seeing their numbers go down that is why they are going to court to cover thier fat lying REAR END.
NOw you're probably a WTS attorney and you're just trying to get ideas to help the WTS. So run & run fast cause we're not going to stop & all your comments won't make us doubt. We've been there and we won't go back because we know what the WTS is MADE of.
& please look up how much professional counseling costs per visit & just calculate the amount that will take in therapy for these vicitms to try to heal because a fact is that they will never completely forget the abuse that tehy have lived in skin and flesh.
