Adahma...I'm afraid you are on to my mother...she's really a serial shunner that has been caught in her own web.
Seriously, or maybe not, considering your line of reasoning which sounds like Karma-gone-bad.
So a woman divorces her husband but he comes back to her home a few years later and rapes her...it's really her fault or at least a portion of it because they had sex together at one time.
You sound like a defense attorney for terrorists and serial murderers. Those people in the Colorado had it coming to them because at one time or another they sneered or snubbed the poor little Joker...get real.
I never said we did not have a hand in creating this little monster. We did because we followed JW rules. However I know my mother and father never shunned anyone and they would never have shunned family because we talked about it. My father was a hard-line JW in most respects until 1975 flew by without a wimper. He then started questioning and double checking things.
You know and I know it's not normal to shun family because a cult says so.
The main reason my daughter is so hard core is because her mother is still in the cult and influenced her a great deal, then she married up and coming elder boy.
I gotta go now because someone just hit my car...not gonna turn it into the insurance company though because I remember that I hit a car about 15 years ago...I probably had it coming.
BONEZZ
PS. I never shunned anyone either
