  1. I remember that, but it was in 1981 during an Advanced Class at RC. Yeah, he definitely said they were freaks and something about America glorifying weakness or some such drivel. But apparently not for the Limb Coordinator, right? Except that the "drugs" would be alcohol.

  2. Fellow Laborers of Ohio was supposed to be focused on doing a two year, in-depth study of Acts and then returning to our hometowns as better equipped leaders. Instead, we lived in, what was, essentially, a commune..... not the flower power, free drugs and sex kind you see in movies and the like. (In fact, drugs and sex outside of marriage were forbidden) There was very little academic study at all. We spent most of our time tending the garden, repairing the grounds and buildings, maintaining the food co-op and keeping our living quarters clean and organized. The blatant lack of any real academic pursuit was, by far, the most disappointing aspect of the program. And, yet, I see people on-line, gushing about the great "spiritual truths" they learned by pulling weeds and such. Were there any valuable lessons to be learned from the experience? Sure, you can learn at least "something" from virtually any experience in life. But, was there any academic value in the teachings? I would have to answer with a resounding "NO".

  3. Some might consider some of Bullinger's structures contrived.. but what he does with Psalm 19 on Pages 2-6 is impressive.. of course the vicster greatly plagiarized this in the CFAS class..

  4. What? He said this? He actually said this aloud? What an absolutely Godless, bloodless, heartless, and cruel thing to think, believe or to say. What kind of immoral and heartless God did they think they were glorifying with speech like this?

  5. Thank you Ms. Garden! I didn't mean to make you feel sad! :( How about, "In God We Trust, all others pay cash."?
