OWK, you say "I have no faith in court cases, class action or criminal, I think these are dead end streets."

But earlier today you said (in a post headed "no apologies necessary") you yourself said:

"During the days of persecution and the inception of the charter back in the early nineties they made it explicitly clear that the decision of whether to solicit medical help/treatment, etc., or not, rests with the individuals and not with any of their leaders or “shepherds”. This is also anchored in their charter. They pretty much stuck to that. They were scared to death of law suits, consequences and blame in case someone would die in case of neglect."

Presumably, by "persecution" you mean the "court cases" you have no faith in.

Don't be surprised if people who were hurt by the Family (you say that none of your children were abused) with severe consequences, WOULD care about the things that made a difference, and would have "faith" for future improvements.
