I Did Tell You I Was Sick, Right? (Was It In The Head?)

Is there any doubt why Mr. Pete Evans is in line for TMR's Understatement Of The Day?

SPOKANE, Wash. — Karen Wanjico had no choice. Turn away from her mother like the rest of her congregation, or be exterminated by God at Armageddon — which could come any moment — with no hope of resurrection. 

Wanjico, of Casa Grande, Ariz., was 17 years old when she chose to shun her mom. Looking back now, at age 49, she says it was the most devastating thing she’s ever done. 

After earning a master of divinity degree and working several years as an advocate for victims of sexual abuse, Wanjico can talk about what happened to her: She was spiritually abused. 

Pete Evans, chief investigator for the Dallas-based Trinity Foundation, which investigates religious fraud, said spiritual abuse takes many forms. 

“We would say it’s rampant throughout the U.S.,” he said.

 

 Keep in mind - it's not like TMR's Understatement Of The Day's a hard category to win. I mean, before I ran across the Minnonite World Review (Really? There's a Minnonite "World" Review?) this was the current runner-up:

You're beating walls now / You just won't quit 

You play with shapes but / They just won't fit 

I know you love me / You don't know what you like 

You're watching TV / I stay up all night

Intellectual Brilliance. Brilliance, I say! 

Plus we're reeeeeeally easy around here,....
