  Yeah. The two witnesses rule.  The aftermath with Leah Remini agree Mike Rinder did a special JW.
context: I knew a Jehovah's Witness. He cheated once on his wife and ended up telling her. He also had to tell the whole church and be put on public reproof, whatever that is. Wife left him. He thought she'd forgive him since he was following the church's rules but that didn't go as planned... >
  
  I have an aunt and uncle who are Jehovah's Witnesses.
  Said uncle has hit on me. I don't know what their specific rules are, but he waited until I was of age so it wasn't technically illegal. Still felt creepy as hell, though. Plus, he's considered an elder in the church, which I understand gives him a position of authority. Ugh. I have deep concerns about potential abuses of power there. >
  
  Your concerns are well founded.  I was born into that religion and left only a few years ago.  It is, by every definition, a cult. 
  The leadership also continues to shield pedophiles from the law in favor of handling matters within the church.  It's an abhorrent group, but the vast majority of the rank and file JWs have no idea what happens and are decent people.
