    What Have You Kept From PFAL?

    in About The Way

    Posted

    You know,,,

    I'm really astounded sometimes by how some people hold onto their "stuff." It only seems to lend to the idea that people were brainwashed by a cult after all! (oh, that's right, we were)

    Having said that, I must admit I've held onto some "stuff." And some of that I'm thankful for as I didn't have a good understanding of the bible before I took PFAL. (now I'm only slightly confused) I was already born again going on, but desired to know about God's word.

    But, I'm talking about those who live and die STILL by what they heard/learned in twi.

    Think for yourselves people...really.

    Let me abs this thought.

    When I think of SIT now, I get that picture in my head of Robert DeNiro doing it at the end of "Cape Fear." Right before he dies!

    Granted, the director took liberties by, yet again, stereotyping Christians into a fanatical character. But it's creepy nonetheless.

    Do I? Must confess I haven't in years. Although this thread got me to thinking about starting up again.

    Timothy! ha, good one. That is one sick song.

    Good thread Dot...I just happen to be doing an oldies countdown on the radio tonight so I'm loving this thread.

    "The Stroke" by Clarnece Carter is another good song. The lyrics are nasty, but trust me it's a good one.

    Gosh, I'm thinking a quick phone call, at the very least, to JP and finding out his true thoughts on this matter would've been more appropriate.

    All this back and forth letter writing crap doesn't seem to be answering questions.

    This the first acknowledgement of GS Cafe's existence by twi, right?

    I'm not holding my breath there'll be more of where that came from.

    Ex...I hear it all the time from my sons:

    "It's just a (song/game/movie/book) mommmm!"

    As for Harry P. I don't know, just something about all the kids standing around bookstores with their pointy hats and wands in hand totally creeps me out. Christian bookstores have many, many kids and pre-teen alternatives.

    Question for the GS Girls....boys may look too!

    I stated, when I started this post, that Christian marriage (for me) would be the ideal.

    The Evan, you have the ideal! Good for you and all those that have it.

    I tend to also think that those who say "trust in God" have some good advice, but unless you get off your duff, ain't nothin' gonna happen.

    Al Poole, that's what you said and I agree. And yes, I'm looking for a mate, not a lover. Anyone can get one of those. (btw, my age IS posted on my profile)

    OneLucky...I loved your story. Especially that part about a better understanding of God post twi. So true! And good point about the marriage stats for Christians and non alike. Hadn't even thought of that.

    Oak...I love Utah this time of the year!

    Goey....my ideal first date is a good old fashion tractor pull! Yee-haw.

    Kay...my sister calls that being a "fluffy female." We all should be loved for exactly who we are! Which brings me to Kansas.

    Finally, not in Kansas. At my age, (o.k. I'm 43), I'm actually in the best shape of my life. In fact, in two weeks I'm climbing to the top (what's left of it) of Mt St. Helens. Yesterday, I went and climbed part of Mt. Hood to prepare! And I'm not bad looking. It's just that meeting Christian men has been hard for me.

    However, I have met many nice, compatible "secular" men who believe in God.

    Maybe, I've been too hasty in dismissing them!

    Think I've gotten some good advice here. Thanks you guys.

    I find myself perpetually single, 5 yrs. post divorce, I'm still alone!

    I've had assorted dates, about three serious boyfriends and joined a few dating services, etc. But after one recent major heartbreak, I'm back to zero!

    I'm o.k. with being single as I'm still raising my teenage sons and I usually have no problem meeting someone new....the question is is what direction to go?

    All my Christian friends/aquaintance's insist I find a Christian man! In my experience, this has been a lot harder than it sounds! It is the ideal, but not the norm.

    Soooo, my question is, is it really necessary in God's eyes that we end up with a Christian person. When I was married and going to twig, people would say "don't worry, your husband is sanctified by your believing."

    I know it would make life easier if you are both on the same page, but not even all Christian's agree on everything.

    So, what say you?? Help!

    And thanks!

    I was referring to something written earlier in this thread from Mandii.

    Anyway, I remember listening intently to your friends story at the class. Are you still in contact w/her? How is she?

    Steve Swenton...funny you guys were headed to 1000 Oaks because when I heard about Elivs's death I was right "over the hill" and just a few miles down the road from 1000 Oaks in a place called Camarillo. Weird!

    I'm back in the building. Thanks for your Elvis memories guys!

    Sudo...thanks for the memories of Elvis! I thought he was pretty cool, even though I guess he does deserve some dissing because of all of the drug use. But he never made no bones about his Christian beliefs and I respected him for that.

    Went to Graceland once and took my then 5yr. old son who remembers everything about it. Even the shag green carpeting! Elvis even had a profound effect on the kids.

    Now let's hope Lisa Marie's kids can get over that whole Michael Jackson thing.
