    Now that Ive thoroughly gotten off-topic due to his little rants.. the buzz words that irritated me?

    - Elders hiding behind "following theocratic arrangement"

    - Bullsh1t accusations even about facial grooming was "a loving provision of counsel"

    - Oh lets not forget "god's sole channel of communication" how presumptuous is that?

    The phrase that ticks me off is: "Suchlike ones"

    Aside from turn of the century religious literature, where in the world could you possibly find anyone who uses that phrase? If you hear it, you know you're near a dub.

    "Exclusive Devotion" was always a phrase that got me. To whom? Eight men in Brooklyn?

    Reborn, you seriously need to calm down. For someone that's only been here for a relatively short time you sure do think that you know what's what around here.

    Give it a rest, don't say what immediately comes into your head and relax. This is a fun place and Freddie is part of the charm. You'll get used to him.

    Freddie isn't quite what he seems to be on the surface. He's just a nice warm pussy...cat.

    Englishman, you always come up with some good topics.

    I laugh at Freddy's comments. Who can take him seriously.

    I agree with LB, I can't stand to hear the word appreciate in any form, YUK

    Ok Slipnslide...

    First of all, I dont have to answer to you.

    Second of all, you were not present when I was in chat and little Mr FredHall continues his endless little snide remarks. Were you? Try not to be so judgmental of everyone else's position. Im not making assumptions based off nothing, Im stating facts of things that happened in my personal experience. So a word of advice, if you dont have something useful to say to me? Back off.

    As I stated in a seperate thread, I wont bite my tongue for someone else to appease them. I will be polite and respectful when that designation is earned by someone else. If they choose to act like a $@@%$%@, then I will treat them accordingly.

    Thank you for your cooperation.

    Also of note-

    "Jehovah will provide" was a popular catchphrase around here.

    I remember this experience like it was yesterday, although it was roughly 5 years ago.

    When I first graduated from high school at 16 and chose to start college at 16, the elders in my local congregation advised very strongly against it. "Why not pioneer? Dedicate your youth to the full-time service?" To which I replied "full-time service wont pay the rent or a car note" and that tended to peeve them. Never swayed, they then said "well you wont have a mortgage or car note if you apply yourself and go to Bethel, all is provided for you"... and I made the remark "looks like youve mapped out my entire life for me eh? U suppose getting married and having a family and children of my own like YOU chose to do is unacceptable."

    THAT shut them up.

    The true Kingdom of God is located in your heart, not an organization of hypocrites.
