Whether it is true or not, to invalidate a claim of abuse by saying you and your family never suffered any, ergo no one else must have, Mick, is a surprise. I know it is a Guest posting and it could just be a flamer/troll, but that kind of flippant response and defense doesn't sit well with your past postings over several years.

Allan Dennehy, I've never understood that about women belonging to such a repressive church, either, but I have known and loved many who do, including my deceased mother-in-law. For that matter I don't understand anyone belonging to a religion which represses them, including other Christian churches.
