Witch hunt.

Interesting thought.

History shows us the TYPE of people who indulged themselves in this pastime in this country.

History also gives a better perspective of an event.

In the mean time, let the witch hunt continue.

It's good for a laugh.

Sorry, the revealing of the protection of known pedophiles by the WTS, is a public service, not a "witch hunt".
You are one sick dude.

WTF?
There have been numerous cases of the cover up and protection of pedophiles by the WTS in the news.
This is not "rumor".
I pray you do not have children, it sounds as if you should not be anywhere near them either.
I am sure you look at them as all little "liars".
Disgusting.

I'm sure if it were an article about Catholics and pedophilia it would be considered a good thing, not a witch hunt! 2 sets of rules.

I don't get how this is about witch-hunting. It is about changing the law on confidentiality.

Who but a complete sociopath would think exposing pedophiles is a "witch hunt" and "good for a laugh"???
This is who hangs out at the Kingdom Hall folks, and parents trust their children to this moron.

AMOM or anyone who has let hatred taken root in their heart and have their perceptions filtered through that hatred is incapapable at constructive talk.

Many here actually encourage her, and let her continue on like this.

So, she thinks she is normal.

The rest of us will soon figure that out one day too.

This is the article this thread is based on...




" CHURCH-CONFESS SECRETS IN DANGER
KENTUCKY
New York Post

January 12, 2003 -- FRANKFORT, Ky.- A legislator who worked with abused kids as a therapist has introduced a bill to remove some of the secrecy of the confessional.
The bill would change Kentucky's "clergy-penitent privilege" so that it would not apply to any confession of abuse or neglect of a child.

The sponsor, Democratic Rep. Susan Westrom of Lexington, said "horror stories" of sexual abuse by Catholic priests and of alleged concealment of abuse by Jehovah's Witnesses prompted the bill.

If enacted, men and women of the clergy would be no different than counselors and therapists. Confessions of child abuse or neglect would not be legally protected. A separate Kentucky law requires people with knowledge of abuse to report it."

...It doesn't mention 'witch hunt' at all. It is about changing the clergy/penitent laws in Kentucky...and I can see why this might worry some priests, some elders, and some pastors.

Womba obviously thinks that going after pedophiles amounts to a "witch hunt".

Womba may well be another JW pedophile looking out for himself.

yes they have two sets of rules... trash the Catholics with the same problem they have and hide! there have been threads posted here to trash the Catholics and other faiths. but that is ok... just do not bring out in public that this org has the same problem does not go pubic with it and then does go onto national TV and says oh yes pedophiles can go door to door they just should not go alone... now that is really insane!!!!!!!

Then of course you could have been someone DFED for being a pedophile and then decided you were an Athiest.

Probably not true but since we are making unsubstantiated accusations........

I figured you wouldnt mind the cannon pointed at you....

I think that all patriarchal religions, who dehumanize women and children, have to answer for the increasing problem of pedophilia and other horrible forms of abuse.

Jesus emphasized the importance of LOVE. Sacred love is egalitarian by nature. By disregarding the two most important of the commandments according to Jesus, and building authoritarian dogmatic hierarchical churches to worship the fearful and hateful volcano god of the ancient nation of Israel, we have this system of things that the Jehovah's Witness s feel they are not a part of but continue to contribute to all the same.
