Ophelia, I just want to say that I think you are doing a splendid job in this and other reenct posts in throwing light on places that need to have light thrown on them. You spoke in an earlier post of being made to recognise the unhappiness that pervades these closed communities, whereas before you had assumed that people were more or less happy in their little religious bubbles; and, yes, what you have been chronicling has opened my eyes, too. What desperately unhappy and often ignorant and foolish people, trapped in their unhappiness, ignorance and foolishness by their beliefs! And you are absolutely right about what amounts to the emotional blackmail of forgiveness', and (what amounts to) being forced to forgive. I am not a Christian, but was brought up as one, and despite never being particularly fervent in my beliefs, which all fell away in adolescence, directly after being confirmed,I suppose I was inculcated with ideas about how important it was to forgive, and this has made it even now extremely difficult to come to terms with an extremely unpleasant childhood experience. In cases of child abuse, and in cases of the abuse of women, the insistence on forgiveness serves merely to perpetuate confusion and pain, and not to grow beyond it.

Roberta was a wonderful woman and a very special aunt. I will miss her but I know she is at peace.
Her nephew, Jim
