Tried to complain...

[mary]

Many of you know my "saga." A lot of it is in "Was this spiritual abuse?" back in November and also in "Vindication."

Today I went on the message board for the denomination and said I'd been kicked out of one of their churches. I gave them just a few details of the conversation in which "pastor" kicked me out.

They're in the U.K. Several people responded. Basically, they wanted to know all the details, which I will not give them, and they told me that the message board was not the appropriate place for such an issue. They also said that no single minister can throw a person out of a church and one who tries to do so should not even be a minister. They advised me to go to "Presbytery" with any complaints. Well, my "Presbytery" for where I live is not in this country and it's about 900 miles away...

So I sent another post telling them that I did not want to give details that indicated where I live, and that I was sorry for having invaded their board. I told them that they would not be hearing from me again. But they do have my e-mail address (had to give it to register on the forum) and I've already gotten an automatic "welcome to our forum" e-mail from them.

Today my therapist said, "Why would you want to attend the church of a pig?"

He's right. Case closed.
