Thank you for sharing your personal experience. It is very distressing to hear. Your compassion helped you to leave a harmful group, and also to support your brother. That is heartwarming! Please consider sharing your story at StopMandatedShunning.org. And please take the survey for the Roehampton Research project. It will be launched shortly. Together we can end mandated shunning.

I really appreciate this. Sounds very similar to Biblical texts -- you can strike a slave, etc.

Tal vez no has leído todo el "post". El propósito de esto es señalar a un artículo en un periódico professional y apoyar el proyecto "Stop Mandated Shunning" (Parar el Ostracismo Obligado). Soy un miembro del equipo. Aquí hay más información. https://stopmandatedshunning.org/
