Exer leadership? Where? Can you give me some names so I'll know who to stay away from?

What is sad, fisherman, is that you don't realize how many wounds an attitude like yours re-opens. It is insensetive of you to insist that an emotionally and psychologically hurt person can only heal in the way you prescribe.
I wish you well in your efforts to bring healing to ex-Family members.
If I may offer a few words of caution:
- Consider the possibility that you (or your flavour of Jesus) do not have all the answers to everyone's problems. I know it makes you feel good to think that you know the answers to life's mysteries (or, at least, have privileged access to the "Answer Man"). But you will never make a victim of abuse feel like you are trying to help them, when you demand that they accept your opinions as truths.
- Consider the fact that a wounded soul must heal in its own time, in its own way.
- Consider the fact some of your attitudes are causing more damage than healing to the broken and fragile lives the Family has created.
I cannot begin to stress how important these are.
Farewell.
