Pedophilia and the Jehovah's Witnesses

Date of Interview: 8-09-07
Child abuse is abhorrent to us, is a commendable statement, and one Jehovah's Witnesses repeat often. Knowing there were documents that would prove their secret actions spoke louder than their public words, I committed to unveil what has been too long hidden in a religion which proclaims their child abuse policy is without equal in the religious community.

The goal of my project was to shine a bright light on the secret policies and procedures utilized by Jehovah's Witness leaders to manage victims, accusations of sexual abuse by Witness molesters. But to do so depended upon obtaining over 5,000 pages of court documents, which I did, and they revealed the truth.

Along with the documents put on a CD, I have provided a commentary meant to make it easier for readers to make sense of the thousands of pages of court records. My work is just a glimpse into the internal workings of Jehovah's Witnesses in the matter of child sexual abuse. I certainly have not provided all the information that can be gleaned out of the records. Now it is up to others to pick up the gauntlet and explore what is being provided in a new CD,

    to brenda lee. the jws do say when there is wrongdoing in the kingdom hall that there should be 2 or more there. its so that a witness is not unjustly accoused of something and the more witnesses the better. that way its fairer to the accoused. and the authorities are called in when a serious allegation is made. i know you heard that from someone who hates witnesses and makes up garbage about them. not the truth.

    Followers of the Watchtower cult get possessed by an arrogant dog-eat-dog spirit.Puffed up with pride they lose objectivity.This pathological "need" to always be right blinds them to logical reason and makes them vicious and malicious.


    This cult is sleazy fraud for God control freaks through and through,what makes them a worse offender than the other religious scammers is they COME TO YOUR HOUSE

    Look Bible thumpers U are described in scripture here:

    [ Romans 1:28 "28 Furthermore, because they did not think it worthwhile to keep knowing God fully, God delivered them to degraded minds to perform acts that should not be done. 29They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed, and depravity.

    They are full of envy, murder, quarreling, deceit, and viciousness.

    They are gossips, 30slanderers, God-haters, haughty, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to their parents, 31foolish, faithless, heartless, ruthless."

    Without a doubt this organization thrives on hiding the truth while saying the speak it. The only power they have over people is the power the people think they have. I continue to dig out nuggets to shine a light onto how this organization destroys families. I see it often. Example: A new couple enters the Kingdom Hall. The brothers immediately pressure the Husband into duties leaving the wife to care for the children and she has the duty to build herself and her kids up while her husband "reaches out" for more responsibility. Once the obligation is on their heads then guilt is now their guide not holy spirit or good moral sense. Guilt from the watchful eyes of the elder body and their wives.

    Jehovah's Witnesses beliefs:

    A) They are at your door to recruit you for enslavement to their watchtower corporation,they will say that "we are just here to share a message from the Bible" this is deception right off.

    B) Their 'message' is a false Gospel that Jesus had his second coming in 1914.The problem with this is it's not just a cute fairy tale,Jesus warned of the false prophets who would claim "..look he is here in the wilderness,or see here he is at the temple..."

    C) Their anti-blood transfusion ban has killed hundreds if not thousands

    D) once they recruit you they will "love bomb" you in cult fashion to also recruit your family & friends or cut them off. There are many more dangers,Jehovah's Witnesses got a bad rap for good and valid reasons.

    99% of the world has rejected the teachings of the Watchtower Jehovah's Witnesses, the darker truth is they are a destructive and oppressive organization.

    When is the Watchtower going to stop insisting on this "two eye-witness" rule which endangers Jehovah's Witness and other children every single day? When are law-makers going to step in and help protect the innocent children in religious organizations like this who aren't willing to do so? We need all the exposure we can muster to help protect the innocent children in this organization who don't have a voice!
