[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How old are you, OP?  My understanding is that while they still preach abstinence, most of these churches are not giving up babies anymore.  They hate the sin, forgive the sinner, so that they can be assured that the child will be raised in the church (and not aborted).  There are tons of kids with single parents in those communities now.  So I don’t think your denouncing them will have the effect you desire—they will agree it was wrong for girls to give babies up and wish you were still in the fold.[/quote]

I am in my 50s. I want revenge, I just have to figure out the right way to exact it.[/quote]

You write like someone in their early 20's. It sounds like you have arrested development. I strongly suggest you seek therapy to run this by a licensed therapist and get their opinion and assistance sorting out  the details of your plan. Let's say you're 15, and your mom was 15 when she had you. She's 65 now. Let's say her parents were 20 when they had her - that makes them 85 now. If they're alive. You are going to go "confront" a senior citizen? And you think that will revolutionize the entire Baptist community? It won't. I'm sorry your life didn't turn out well but at some point, it's up to YOU what your life is. [/quote]
