Anything can be done to another person if all free will is taken away and a consistant dogma of “God wants this” or “God will send you to hell if you do that!” is fed to the members/parents. Plus breaking all normal bonds and ties between parents/children, siblings etc.
Believe me, the sickest, most twisted, most vile things ever will seem perfectly OK because God (the pastor, Joe the Messiah, Peter the Prophet, Dad the Deity) said it’s what God wants. The bad things that happen are their normal.
Like growing up in a house full of rattlesnakes, not until you understand what is real ‘out there’ do you realize the horror of ‘in there’.
Yeah, but how does it go on for so long without “outside”people being aware? How do they get away with it?
..think every woman here is Aunt Bea.
I plead guilty!
For some reason, I have always considered every female Freeper as "an Aunt Bea" in my mind.
Perhaps out of respect?
