Good on you for speaking up Bliss.
It must take a lot of guts to go against a strong group dynamic, where your own ideas are always brought into question.

Any group who cannot accept a critical evaluation of it's own actions, does seem to be trying to suppress the truth.

Hi AM....my 'gross sin' was going against the elders orders to never discuss the abuse or mention the abuser to anyone in the congregation, which in effect placed other kids in danger, something my conscience didn't allow  Angry. I advised mums whose kids were around the perp to watch them.The thing I also felt angry about was how the church always referred to all other churches' sexual abuse cases to show 'how bad they were' whilst keeping their own secret. cheers.

I guess the Elders view their own words as God's will to which you are "sinning" against it. That's a little pretentious of them and frankly not that surprising for a religious cult.

I hope that you and your family have come out of the experience unscathed. One hears of stories of people needing to be de-programmed with they've escaped.

People who can't distinguish between etymology and entomology bug me in ways I cannot put into words.

I can certainly identify with that sentiment.

Like minds Abu?
Who would have guessed? lol Grin
Maybe if you pool your resources, you could present a reasonable facsimile of a rational person?
No, that wouldn't work, as neither of you show any predisposition towards any form of rational thought process.

I know, you can feel victimised together, you both already have that victim mentality down pat.
