Did the parents know what they were sending their kids to? Like how does the place advertise.

First off thank you for trying to help these poor kids. This is insane and terrible and makes me sad that humans can do this stuff to eachother. As for my question. Was this school run by a specific sect of Christians such as Baptists or Catholics or something or was it a mix of diff types?

I very much admire your courage for speaking on this issue and living through it. I also admire the fact that you have forgiven him. It takes a strong person to forgive such a horrible thing. It also is great to see someone pointing out how this hurts entire families not just the abused.

When he gets out are you afraid he will do it again? Most specifically to any grand kids he may have.

Also you say that he believes god wanted him to do this, do you think he has some sort of mental illness or something?

Have any of your other family members forgiven him? How are they dealing with this?

Has he came out and apologized for his actions and is he getting proper treatment? My worry with this would be that prison rarely treats problems, it is meant for punishment in staid and if he is out without treatment what is to say that whatever possessed him to think god wanted him to do this would not happen again.

As Christians your self did this kind of thing make you doubt your religion? How do you fix that in your mind, the idea that this torture is being done in the name of god.

I don't know if you are still taking questions but I found this kinda late.

First off I want to tell you that I practice and teach a form of western martial arts. My form is basically a composite of various medieval and renaissance styles. I generally fight with one of the following: a long sword, short sword, bastard sword or sword and board.

  • I read that you don't have "real" training but I was wondering if you practice a certain form or style.

  • Also do you read training manuals or any other form of learning about the art of swordplay?

  • Do you find that your weight limits you in your sword fighting? I know that when fighting heavier opponents it is a very good tactic to let them wear themselves out. Do you find that you tire easily while sword fighting?

  • You seem to prefer swords bought from mass market type shops such as budk and cold steel. Have you ever used a custom forged blade?

  • How many hours a day do you practice?
