I'm curious why you'd mention widowed support groups as an example of "love bombing." Do you know anything about widow support groups or were you just being snarky?  We aren't forced to share our stories. We all don't see eye to eye. There are several in my support group I can't stand. Being widowed doesn't automatically make you a good person. None of the other criteria applies to us, so no, we don't fit the description of being "brainwashed."
I don't feel the need to make your argument for you, but a better example would have been AA support meetings. I don't have any personal experience with them, but I know a few people who have. They related to me that the meetings are similar to a cult like atmosphere and a reason why they didn't stick with the program. |
I only use the example because I know St James has such a support group. It's one of many programs or groups the church either runs or participates in.
How is that a bad example? All those were examples of normal socials groups under the influence of a church.
