Hey Restrangled, I initially had the same reaction, but sat on my hands. One of my triggers is hearing anyone defend the WT and in the same paragraph have pity for us. Pity for us? Get real. We are free. Until they can see that man behind the curtain, they just won't get it. Unfortunately, sometimes when you take a peek behind the curtain what you see puts you in denial and you fight to hold on to the status quo even harder.
I think that it's a good thing that you let Scrappy know how her attitude made you feel. It was also very good of her to apologize. In my opinion, she meant no harm (at least I hope not).
It's one of the most frustrating things I see on here--those people who still believe and want to save us from ourselves.
The posts to Scrappy were good. No one sounded like a raving apostate (because no one really is), just very supportive. Being supportive is what most here do best.
