I did say that what I said wasn't meant to be offensive. Pehaps you didn't read the 2nd post? You can't say that the two of them weren't deceived. Fortunately for Acheik, she saw it a whole lot sooner. Doesn't make her better than anybody, just a bit wiser.
I know Maria has gone on to perpetuate the madness and I'm sorry she has done that. I'm also glad Acheik saw it for what it was, and was able to come out, inspite of her horrendous difficulties. Just think though how difficult it's going to be for Maria, IF she ever does. I said it before, unto her will be the greater condemnation. How hope she can survive it.
If I'm projecting anything, it's the fact that I FEEL Maria needs to be prayed for. I'm sorry for her,and I believe her health is a direct result from stuffing the anger of living with an abusive, alcoholic man. I believe good Christian psycho therapy could root that all out and restore her to health and life. I already said that before.
I'll project this too - what if she comes to her senses and starts coming to the board and starts asking for help? Mene asked THEM for help and they didn't know how to help her. They just socked it to her, probably because they were so inscensed with the FACTS - that in her case, she was listening to the devil, and their facts were all wrong. Justice Ward got to the bottom of it and saw that Mene was the way she was because or the abuse. Would you sock it to Maria because of the Facts, or could you see that maybe, just maybe, Maria is the way she is because of the abuse. I'm not trying to be a crazymaker here. I see Maria as an abused woman. And yes, that has made her abusive too. And no, it doesn't let her off the hook.
Again, just maybe, Maria is the way she is because of the abuse and the longer she stays in denial, the worse it'll get, in my opinion.
