JWs: more covering up of child sex abuse

The debate was about rape and I think my post was cogent, clear-sighted and consistent with the topic of discussion.

The debate was about the JW organization systematically covering up child sex abuse and about victims seeking justice.

The fact that the rapist might and probably will rape again puts an onus on victims of such serious crimes to report them.

Do you believe someone who has reported a rapist but would like to remain anonymous should be forced to testify?

The discussion was about a commission investigating the cover up of child sex abuse. No one was being forced to testify.

I have no issue with a commission investigating the cover up of child sex abuse as long as the victims give the green light.

Well robbie carrobie did have an issue with it. He believed there is less sexual abuse of children if it is kept secret.

If you say so, I didn't read the whole thread.

I don't know exactly how they could be "forced" to testify, but it would morally unsound of them not to do so if the testimony would save other children from being raped.

Not quite as amusing as the time you claimed to be FMFs lapdog. Oh yes and the Bronwyn character was also right up there.

Any thoughts on the OP?

Do you believe it is morally unsound for a victim to be in shock and ashamed and for them not to file charges because they're afraid of retribution from their attacker and also afraid of being called a liar?

No, I don't believe it is morally unsound for a victim to be in shock and ashamed. What I think is morally unsound is not talking steps necessary to prevent other children from being raped.

If your sibling was raped and wanted privacy on the matter would you go to the authorities without her consent?

I was part of a religious cult and my sister was raped there and nothing you say is going to change that. Go on and troll me about it as that is what you do best.
