  A sickening example of religious vampirism

  by expatbrit in

  the link below leads to a webpage for a play entitled it's not too late: a christian drama/musical inspired by the columbine tragedy.. here is the synopsis of the play:.

  the story takes place during one day at a high school.. .

  mr. brooks is the custodian of the high school.

  Mr Lentz,
  Thank you for showing up and confirming that this play is based soley on your opinion of god. You said Jason wasn't an atheist yet you describe him in your character list as this:

  Jason Holmes: A student. Independent, rebellious, and arrogant. A loner loaded
  with anger. He has rejected God. The path he now follows in life is "his own".
  He has little tolerance for other points of view, especially from those who believe
  in God. He has an intense dislike for Mr. Brooks and Lisa Caldwell.

  IMO most troubled teens are products of their enviroment, though he is responsible to a certain extent. Yet many states do not even prosecute teens as adults, because even the goverment understands that they are not emotionally ready to accept full responibility for their actions. Yet, you painted this teenager as the epitomy of evil. This upset me greatly.

  You also made the statement:

  What can be stated truthfully about christians and non-christians alike is this: Anyone who murders someone else is not doing God's will and has rejected God's truth

  That again is your opinion. I feel that murdering another person is saying you do not value them as a person worthy of living, no more no less. Plus to complicate things a bit more suppose there is a fine upstanding christian that murders, he is then accused of rejecting god and only thinking of himself.

  Rejecting God does not normally lead to murder. But all murders are the result of rejecting God as well as God's will for our lives.

  Yet, isn't that why humans feel they need god in their life, because they are imperfect and will make mistakes? So basically you are "screwed" either way. The path you speak of has a very small shoulder, and it is man's opinion of who falls off.

  Yet you have no problem swallowing this and then pushing such idiocy onto young impressionable children. I understand your zeal for spreading what you believe to be the only path to walk on. Yet the vampirism that was eluded to is rampant in your narrow minded views. Our way, or you will be a murderer. Sorry, does not make sense to me. This play upset me greatly, but I am glad you are making $5 a pop off it, seeing as you are hosting on a free website and all.<that was sarcasm btw>

  I already spoke to you in email, yet I want to jump in here too. You have all of my understanding, and support. I, like Patio, stayed up into the wee hours reading or doing cross stiching projects. Anything to take me into my own little world for a moment, that was if I wasn't tired enough to stay awake. Your children look beautiful and healthy, and that is the most important thing.

  I also know what a jab it can be for someone to critisize when you are working your tail off, and trying the best you can. Just remember that is all you can do. There is no denying you have a wonderful fun loving spirit, and I for one wish you the best.

  Like I said I would be glad for them to come and visit anytime. Okay I would really want to come there, I miss my mountains haha. Hang in there Sister!

  Waiting,
  The infamous jerk haha funny how most of us have that in common as well

  Be careful Bill! People are bound to do anything, and they know how to find you. Isn't this communicating a threat? I think you can get a criminal charge for something like this. Get some help from these computer whizzes and report it. Take care!

  I know we should let this be buried but I have to say ((((lilacs))) sorry someone has invaded your space here. I am having emotional run ins with my 7 year old, I can only imagine what happens when she is 18! You got it tough girl, I hope that things smooth out for you, and for the kids. Just a really quick side note, please think long and hard about sending the kids to your moms, if she really is unstable. I have actually gone to great lengths that in the sad case of something happening to me, my JW family does not get my kids. This is repeating the cycle of "abuse" and I know you want better for your kids. Hang in there sweetie! And I hope your neighbor gets the help she needs as well.

  Outlaw?!?!?!? Are you high? You are so hell bent on sniffing the trolls you didn't realize your nose just went up a donkeys bum. This is not the same personna as the ones you mentioned, she is Shari's real life neighbor. Speaking of getting out and seeing past your computer screen, think it is time you got some fresh air? I am not usually this harsh, but geez man are you getting paranoid or what?

  read the story before you view the photo!

  its worth it and will only take a minute: .

  a class of primary school children started a class project to make a plant pot to take home and wanted to have a plant in it that was easy to take care of, so it was decided to use cactus plants.. .
