Chicken! Since when are you nice and since when do you show restraint? You're just chicken. Admit it.

And same for you! Just chicken!

You haven't been around me long enough to know me. I am a really nice person with strong opinions that I vocalize but I will defend when I think it is appropriate and I am not too big to apologize if needed. Having said all of that, even if some don't like lady preachers they don't feel threatened by them because they view them as "nobody" but, an educated woman is viewed as threatening by many. Now who you callin' chicken?

Yes I know "there are many" men out there who think that way. But how can we say that the men who run JP feel that way? As I stated before, there ARE women over there at JP... so are you saying that they make sure that the women they let in are not well-educated?

I think your post relies on too many assumptions. I'm getting the impression that perhaps you have a dislike of them that makes it easy for you to believe believe the worst concerning them.

Maybe it's just me, but... I cant picture the leaders of JP saying to themselves: "Well, she's too intelligent or educated. So lets keep her out."

The reason they wouldn't let Rhoni in is because she's not a preacher, nor a preachers wife. It's that simple. She doesnt meet their stated requirements for membership. I dont think we need to go fishing for other (hypothetical) reasons

Re: JUST PREACHERS MAJOR Crackdown! turning WPF???

I guess the lesson learned here is if AFF decides to purge their membership of those with zero or one count posts that we need to forewarn everyone, huh?

And, if you receive an PM from me asking for you phone number - just chalk it up as I found out your were single and looking for a wife.......






and want to give you Rhoni's phone number!
