Re: Christianity Vs Conservatives??
where I'm coming from guys ... spent my entire childhood in around the church environment. Baptised in the Luthern Church .. we moved to Texas before I was in school and where members of an enormous Southern Baptist Church in Lubbock Texas (brother was baptised there, mother was music director) ... moved to Moline, Illinois years after. Family joined another Baptist church (very active) Moved back to Madison WI area .. returned to old farm community Luthern church .. Family wasn't getting 'fed' there so we searched and joined a large non-denominational church - very active. A bit after this time my mother became curriculum coordinator for a prodominant private school in the Madison area where I later graduated from... (you see the the significance of christianity in my up-bringing) .. after graduaution of High School I attended a very respected Bible College in the eastern states. Doubling my studies in Theology and youth ministry with an emphasis on missions. Spent Six months after recieving my degree in the mission field both in Mexico and the Dominican Republic directing and coordinating site work for American adult work crews and church youth groups while spreading the news- <br />-and that<br /> .... this time spent there dealing with the people, organisations and finances opened my eyes to a whole new animal!!<br /><br />after seeing what I've seen out of the mouths and actions of men and women that were "leaders" from across the states in all church venues ... sours me still today.<br /><br />...and to see someone openly profess his beliefs in Christianity and "teaching" or even refering to Biblical statutes and doctrine while showing such bile comments and acronyms turns my already twisted gut into a surgeons night mare.<br /><br />I'm not casting him to the wolfs ... I'm merely reminding him to watch his 'P's ' & 'Q's' because someone is reading this now, forming opinions based on actions. <br /><br />whew!! ....I'm spent!<br /><br />*edited spelling*
