I guess this is just an innately silly issue to some people.

Your reasoning is silly and flawed.

You were molested at a young age and that was horrible and criminal. From your posts this was not an isolated incident but a pattern in your family. If 3 out of the 4 women in your immediate family have been molested, it is likely that your parents did believe you but didn't care. That is horrible and I can certainly understand why you have such rage within you - I don't blame you.

What I am trying to do, however, is to point out that your rage, if you can't find away to relieve it, needs to be better focused. Not all people that are charged with a crime - especially sex crimes - are guilty.

From what you describe in your posts, your rage has made you hyper-protective to the point that it adversely effects your life. Saviour complexes are not healthy and can be very emotionally damaging.

I hate what happened to you, but killing people that are charged with crimes even before the facts can be sorted out is not the answer.

Have you asked God to help you with your pain? A heart still angered doesn't have a lot of room for Christ.

*sigh*

Gosh, no.
In the 34 years I've had to mull this over, *none* of that has ever occurred to me.

[thank you, Captain Obvious, for pointing it out]

If you take away nothing else from this endless rehashing of "silliness", take away this;

I am *not* unusual in this respect.
THIS is what happens to molested kids.
THIS is how messed up they are until the day they die.
THIS is why molesters "need killin'", as the old joke goes.

Do you have any notion of how hard it is to seek God's comfort or forgiveness when you've been brainwashed into taking all the blame for a "crime" you didn't commit?

The concept of trust and forgiveness takes a lot longer to sink in than with 'normal' people.

You're terribly concerned with the innocent being punished for crimes they didn't do.

Yeah, I can certainly appreciate that a lot better than
you probably ever could.


I have to stop with this now.
I'm in for the inevitable weeks of flashback nightmares already and I'd love to keep it from stretching into months.


God bless you for whatever help you may have been trying to give, in your own way.
