Dangerous messages should be exposed to protect others

[Guest guest]

Hare Krsna dasi comments:

 

I must agree with Jatukarnya prabhu's point. Rules of confidentiality are

superceded when the contents of messages are dangerous or criminal. This

has already been demonstrated on a non-devotee chat room where a man

confessed that he set his house on fire and deliberately burned up his

eight year old daughter. Because his offense was considered so serious,

his message was exposed and he was sent to jail for his offense.

 

Of course, if a person does not feel that repeated blasphemy of Vaisnava

women in ISKCON is an important offense, then I can understand why they

would insist that confidentiality should not have been broken.

 

The thing that is difficult for me to understand is how someone with that

belief could simultaneously believe that they are standing up for the

protection of women. This is too much of a contradiction for me to

understand.

 

your servant,
