I read this sort of thing last year and got really angry, saying that it was blaming the victim. but when you said this Treehouse, I remembered an old poem by James Thomson.... who knows, Tree, maybe you are on to something.
ONCE in a saintly passion
I cried with desperate grief,
"O Lord, my heart is black with guile,
Of sinners I am chief."
Then stooped my guardian angel
And whispered from behind,
"Vanity, my little man,
You're nothing of the kind."
