They do love us. But take anybody who gets written against in a Jack Chick tract and they love their children too, which was my point of bringing that up. And not to say that both types are equally wise and judicious parents, but that they're equally UNFIT. The minute the kids of either set of parents have finished packing their bags, they need to look at their parents and say "sure they love me and have good intentions but I'm obviously cast on my own resources anyway." Because you know what? I expect more than good intentions from authorities and leaders who stand up behind pulpits or who have little kids who need some SOUND JUDGEMENT from the people in charge. The "demonization" isn't about a lack of love, it's a lack of honesty and integrity called faith. What do you think our childhood would have been like if our parents plan for their lives had not involved 1-800-GODS-WILL plugged straight into their brains, "bow your head and close your eyes" as if it were the psychic friends network? Maybe we would have avoided the corn-fed heartland? Sure they did their best in the past, but I'm looking at the present, and saying "No more. My respect and tolerance for this practice from authorities ends here."
