    Forgivenss or resentfulness? You be the judge

    unfortunately the church does not have elders, or deacons. He is the end all there. And everybody there knows what's going on, and they still choose to keep him as pastor.

    Somethings you will never forget. As time goes on they might not hurt as bad but the memory will always be there.

    As others have pointed out the things you are stating are things that both men and women do. Right now it appears that your comments are one sided due to your limited experiences.
