My husbands parents were Elders in the church. He divided our family as we were forsaken by them. When the parents came back around to “family first” because of what was happening to our daughter we were all called in and all admonished, he had a legal pad list of everything wrong with us. I stood up to him as he declared my daughter had offended his wife. I stood and he told me to sit, I said NO, my daughter was not a liar, I don’t have to take this and walked out. All this frustrated him and his last sermon we sat at eye level in the auditorium and did a dead stare. Under his skin totally, he did not win, we have survived.

This is the first allegation that Ron may have had any thoughts of straying, although it sounds like he resisted them to your detriment. He talks occasionally of trials he had while assigned in Erie, do you have any ideas what he might be talking about?

Our family suffered at his hands in the early 90′s. My daughter the same age as Audra was persecuted by them as she was superior in intelligence,and more attractive. Although my my husband was a deacon they tried to play us against each other. It was sick…but ol’ Ron liked me to come over and massage his “headaches”. I now think he was attracted and that is why he persecuted me so insistently. But we were allowed to be their servants. As far as Laura, dumber than dirt, mean and cruel to cover up her lack of intelligence. Bitter yes, as they scarred my child. But we were strong and did now bow at the end.

Although I must admit that if my wife gave an opening prayer, it would go on for an hour and consist primarily of the following:

“Oh God, you are so nice, and you make nice things, and the cat is nice, and my daughters are nice, and please make it rain because it is nice for the flowers, and I had a nice salad yesterday and thanks for the nice lettuce and tomatoes, and I think cucumbers are nice too, and please give everyone a nice salad so they are not hungry and they can have the nice tomatoes too, and please give our cat a nice feeling because she looks tired today, and thanks for the nice clouds and the sky and yesterday the weather was nice and I like the nice flowers at the park and…

*twenty minutes later*

…and then I saw a crow and it looked nice and I had a nice cup of tea and…”

Also look at Ron’s views on women. He, in his own perceived spiritual glory has restored women to a more prominent place in “God’s Church”. They can now hold a title, and such, but this is a false paradigm. Women are not free or empowered by being slightly less discriminated against! It would be like saying “Women are now glorified by their new found permission to leave the house every day for five minutes only and cannot leave the yard…”. That is still slavery and/or discrimination.

Why can’t a woman give an opening or closing prayer? What is so damn dangerous about a woman that she cannot stand on one side of a room facing another bunch of people on the other side of the room and pray aloud?

If a woman is able to push a 5 pound baby out through the most sensitive area of her body, you’d think she would be an expert on prayer and beseeching God for help!

This kind of self-sustaining hate is, or leads to, a very unique pathological lack of empathy, the kind that makes people who thin they are moral commit physical/emotionally spiritual violence against their fellow man. i.e. to love and fellowship with gay men and women is to tacitly agree with their views on sex. Thus, the gay man or woman must be (in a manner of speaking) “purged” from decent society by not allowing them equal rights, or the opportunity to worship at certain churches, or serve openly in the military or seek to become priests or pastors. This crime against humanity is easy to commit if you believe that you are ‘right” about something to such a degree that you are justified to act against them.

Ronald Weinland pretends to have pity on those who don;t believe him. But it is the patronizing pity one has of a little kid who spills milk all over themselves. Us poor folks who haven;t had God’s plan revealed to us “in a powerful way” are “miserable and filled with hate”. Statements like these do NOT deal with the reality of our lives. Ron, in his self-appointed position of Chief Pitier, looks down upon people with significantly more education, life experience, religious education, earning power, etc, because it is the ONLY way he can create the illusion of his own spiritual authority. The Pope doesn;t need to tell Catholics that the rest of the world is less spiritually advanced…he is the freakin’ POPE! Imagine if the Pope’s next Easter message from the Vatican was entitled “Those Protestants just don’t understand how Pope-y I am!”, or “C’mon people, I am the f**king Pope, goddamnit!” That would be a very sad Pope message indeed!

But every week Ronald Weinland pumps out a “I’m the Pope already! Geez!” sermon, and feels no TRUE empathy for anyone that believes otherwise…
