I agree, exwhyzee.... people need to vent, have support, have proof of reality.
I am grateful people have shared their stories here, it helps a lot!
You are not crazy, as the WT would have you believe, it really did happen.
What the WT does is very, very cold hearted and mean.
I read an article about a man who was locked on a ship, had to devise a plan to escape... from Scientology!!
Other people have missed childhoods & were bitter because of going to Catholic Schools, mean Nuns, pedophile priests.. Then their are the Muslim with many traditions, Chinese people being oppressed, Iran, Korea, Russia, Germany, India... what if we had grown up under these circumstances?
Yes, let's support each other, help each other out of this mess, and live life to the full!!!
cha ching!
