LINK Jehovah’s Witnesses Will Finally Join Australia’s Program for Sex Abuse Victims | Hemant Mehta | Friendly Atheist | Patheos
The Jehovah’s Witnesses will finally join an Australian program meant to make amends for child sexual abuse… but only because they would have lost their tax exempt status if they didn’t.
They may not care about the children, but they care about their bank account, apparently.

That's true of most churches. The Catholics didn't worry too much about their child molesters until states started changing laws to allow them to be sued for priests that committed the crimes decades ago.

Mention removal of Tax Exemption Statuses and the Churches back-flip faster and better than a Champion Diver in the Olympics.
It IS NOT about PROTECTING the Children, it IS ALL about protecting their bottom line on their Finances.
ANY and ALL forms of Abuse to either Adults or Children within the J.W's IS ALWAYS handled ( ???) by the Council of Elders of each separate Church and then dismissed completely out of hand immediately.
PLUS, IF any Plaintiff/Complainant disagrees/ debates or refuses to accept the Ruling of the Council of Elders they are Threatened with Expulsion/Excommunication, Shunning by Members and Family/families for the rest of their lives.
That IS how the J.W's work so do NOT expect there to be many Abuse Claims to come from or be resolved where the J.W's are concerned.
