oh ok....

so you are talking about specific area of powerful men who commit wrongdoing?

the only thing is metoo movement doesn't just impact those who are rich and powerful, but its impact spread throughout to all sectors of society.

 

 

 

It has not negatively impacted anyone. It has not gone far enough. More men need to lose their jobs for the abuse they have done, including those in the Catholic Church, but they have secured Non-disclosures.

The so called Metoo movement are women refusing to sign non-disclosures, therefore these companies have no choice but to fire these men. You and others claimed these men were being fired over baseless accusations.

I simply suggested that was absolutely not true, because our legal system makes it very difficult for a woman to lie about a powerful man and get away with it. The present Metoo  movement started with Harvey Weinstein and Bill Cosby, serial rapists. Other women then came forward and said they were raped, assaulted and harassed too.

There were many women who were too afraid to come forward, and that’s why there are many victims of the same man. Why were they afraid to come forward if all they had to do was make an accusation? What caused them fear?

 I can post text screen shots of he threats made to me by a powerful CHRISTIAN lawyer. They didn’t fire him right away even though there was hard evidence. They spent three months threatening me. When they finally did fire him, the press claimed he was fired “abruptly.” And of course there was outrage in the legal community.

As far as the article you posted(I didn’t read it all) there has always been concern about young men on college campuses being accused or putting themselves in situations where they can ruin their lives.Such as ending up on the sex offenders list because they didn’t know the legal age for consent in a particular state. Or their girlfriend sent them a nude photo of herself and they were charged with the possession of pornography. These concerns have always been out there and has nothing to do with the current Metoo movement.

Prove the bolded part.

I showed an article in which a human resource person said even if a man is innocent its better to fire them than have to deal with the legal aspects of the accusation, that is better to fire an innocent man than have to go through legal hoops of investigation of the claim and then the lawsuit that follows.

Looking a kavaugh alone, the accusations caused harm to his family, innocent women in his family. False claims, and there are some, too many, hurt people and should not be acceptable.

There was a politician who once said all child molesters should immediately be put to death upon accusation, even if innocent men are killed you can get all of the guilty ones. Thats what this sounds like.

First, in my opinion, an “article” is not a good source of information at all. Nor is the opinion of one human resource person who may have been taken out of context. Were there opposing views in the article? That tells you the editor had an agenda.

Second, you asked me to prove the bolder part. You and others have been asserting that men have suffered from baseless accusations during the Metoo movement (a movement that started because someone came forward about Harvey Weinstein raping them!), but have not provided one single example of that happening, just an article based on someone’s opinion.

third, if you actually read what the human resource person is saying, she is suggesting it’s easier to fire someone after an accusation than deal with a costly legal battle. This is where the press gets away with fooling its readers. There is no costly legal battle unless the accusation has merit. AND, are you aware that if a woman accuses a man, sues him, and loses, she has to pay his legal fees? Why would anyone falsely accuse a powerful wealthy man who can prove his innocence and then turn around and sue the woman?

Of course not. And there should be very serious penalties for the person making a false accusation.The Bible says a false witness will not go unpunished.

Every accusation  should be thoroughly investigated. I think when we read about someone being fired right after an accusation(such as Matt Lauer who was fired within 24 hours) there were other past incidents with other women who may have signed non-disclosures.

That’s okay.? I think we’ve exhausted this topic. If you start another thread about this topic in the future, I’ll give input. I didn’t read all of the article that you posted. I don’t really value what the print media has to say, because of how they operate (and they are not regulated like broadcast media), so I think I just read a bit of the article and then went off on a tangent. Sorry about that.?

My two cents...
 

The "metoo movement" has taken away the voice of those who are brutally abused. I am so tired of hearing about "survivors" who were groped once at a party but never put in any danger. Is groping wrong? Of course, but it's hardly an act that makes one a "survivor." When alcohol is involved I'm sure women often do their share of groping too. Alcohol does NOT raise IQ points.

I think one of the biggest problems in the US is pornography. It poisons people's sexuality and creates cravings for acts that are far from loving. It perverts everything God intends sexuality to be.

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
