I have had lots of people apologize to me about how i was treated as a child, and teenager growing up in the church. I accepted it and moved on.. thats what happens in any walk of life if you choose to forgive and not ruin your own life with bitterness.You are a joke if you want the whole 2000 strong church to apologize to you!! While we are on the subject please remind us all what the "church" did to YOU 20 years ago? Sorry, it must of slipped my mind.Was it just that they wouldn't let you marry a 17 year old child or was there more?
