Like ExCathedra I am very sorry for the abuse and pain you have suffered and am glad to hear that you are taking steps to help yourself and salvage your life.
I graduated from the 13th corps and remember the "bedside manners" class and movies that you described. That was a very wierd and dark time and you are not alone in your feelings of how creepy it was.
Thanks for sharing your story with us, welcome to Greasespot.....may you find a place to hang your hat!
May God the Father, Holy Breath the Mother, and Jesus Christ the Brother give you the saints the brothers and sisters of Christ love, grace, joy and peace
thank you who have responded in kindness. this is the last of my issues and yet the most painful to address. The betrayal runs so deep. when I allow my self to wonder into memory land about TWI my heart aches for what could have been. Christinity at its finest hour. But it is a story once again of religious pioty gone amuck at the expence of the pure hearted.
I like the culture of the Aboriginies. From a very young age spirituality is recognized in the young child.The morals and collective good is taught,what is best for the group. By the example set by the mature and elderly, children by the time of adolesence know their connectedness to the land, each other and to the "oneness" that is in all.Their gifts are recognized and developed by the elders as the children easily manifest them.If that is the longsuit of that child then it is respected and honored. Weither it be story telling ,cerimonial worship, hunting, basket weaving or herb finder. all is sacrad and a nessisity of the group.These people live a harmony that is breath taking.From within to everything that is without.A ONENESS THAT CANNOT BE VERBALIZE NOR DOES IT HAVE TO. so now I see christianities finest hour living in a culture that is as old as the beginning of time.It has no written language and communication is between the minds." You just know " It makes me have to ask some hard honest questions about what I believe. I know im in a first wold country were i dont have to beleive for my daily bread, like they do. Maybe thats the problem. We have moderinized our lives to the point that the nessisity of God no longer exist.At least the traditional God we have been taught.I do believe in a higer power (he, she, it, they). But that higer power is being redfined as my spiritual core is allowed to live and have the freedom to ponder and concider what resinates and what do not. So it is a journey( much like the Aboriginies "walk about"),that is the defining moment of who and what God is to me. I have a sneaking suspition that what I might find may be far removed from the Christianity of the last 2000 years.
