Wow. I am new to the group and this was a heavy article. I also grew up with a silver spoon in my mouth and I have heard some of the stories that some of our Gnostic family members have shared about what they have gone through. I am finally giving thought to what we as a society, do to all members of our society and it’s not a pretty picture. I must say that it is a eye-opening experience to get a glimpse, and it only takes a glimpse, into the dark world to many Americans live in. It is an intolerable world and more attention needs to be paid to how dark that life truly is.
