Behold the crux of the problem. Heathen tribal cultures of death and deprivation can never be held responsible. Someone else must be blamed.

#3 I'm delighted you see it my way g(r)om. I'm shunning meds, but I would consider a guilt recovery group for seniors. I realize it's a private matter, but how are you managing to cope ?

#6 The girls from the school in Chibok were far from the only girls stolen by Boko Haram to sell as wives and concubines, not to mention the boys taken to be made into fighters. The number rescued over the past few months must be heading into the multiple thousands by now.
