I was attending a prison function the other day (Nov. 2010) and was not surprised to learn that 95% of the people who sexually abuse were sexually abused themselves. I kind of figured this but never found any numbers anywhere. How are we to reconcile this? I've been there. I know what it is like to not be believed or to even be made to feel proud of what happened. I wonder how these things affected my thinking to do something that I know was wrong. What now? It is hard to try and come to you because I know that generally speaking that most people think that it would be better to kill all of us and let God sort us out. If you can believe it, I used to feel the same way. But, now I am here and guilty and want another chance and would like to know what it will take to get it. Can anyone tell me?
