We need to talk about this stuff...We need to deal with it...I'm sorry but to NOT deal with it does seem like we are protecting our "secrets" somehow... and to the World outside possibly "Hiding" it...much more damaging to us then just keeping quiet and others at arms length...

imo...

Randy - you're missing my point.... that is my whole issue! It wasn't swept under the rug. These people came forward and told the truth. It will be dealt with - it is out of the hands of anyone who would try to keep it a secret. I sincerely admire and appreciate the ones who were willing to stand up against the evil that this man did!

Pray for the family involved, show them kindness and gentleness - give them a call and support them - send them a card letting them know you are thinking of them and praying for God's healing and peace in their life - but for pity sakes - don't blast their personal situations all over the world wide web!

Can you see where I am coming from? If it was MY daddy, brother, cousin, I wouldn't want people that didn't have real concern for my family blasting it all over the countryside - THAT's malicious and sleazy gossip - and that is exactly what the OP did! JMHO

I was taught, if you aren't part of the problem and you aren't part of the solution - it isn't your business to talk about it.
