    I learnt that my cousin (who was df'd for wrong doing) wants to go back into the faith.

    Then I had to pull out the big guns "do you know about pedophilia in the society" he was shocked and said he is going to ask the elders when he goes back. They will probably brush everything under the carpet, here is S.Africa things like that don't make news, it's not brought to the attention of anyone - I was getting so worked up about it. I was carrying on about how that faith is supposed to the true religion and puts it's as gods spokes-oraganisation and they hide stuff like this - I think my collegues got an ear fill.

    So a little sad, but hopefully he will go back and ask.

    ((Loubelle)) ... in the end it's his decision. Naturally you feel sad about it, but you really cannot do more than you are doing now.

    I truly wish I could bible bash him - in a non combative way though.

    I hear you Vivamus - I just feel so powerless - it's like watching a lamb walk willingly to the slaughterhouse!

    I have "learned" that the word Learnt is more common in British English, and learned in American English. I looked it up because I thought Learnt was a slang word, and come to find out its just past tense of learned!
