Well, I THOUGHT I was raised strict, but I didn't know what strict was until I moved to Mississippi. I was in UPC all my life and didn't know it was a sin to go to the fair, the circus, the Icescapdes, the rodeo, bowling, having a TV or a pool table in our house, etc. etc. etc. I was in culture shock at JCM!!

Arkansas???? You'd better check up on yourself; that's awfully close to Tennessee and you know how those Tennessee liberals are.

I had a guy from JCM come home with me once and he wouldn't go downstairs because there was a pool table there. I couldn't believe it!!

OK.....here's round #2. Mrs. MOW and my 17yr old son just got back from a movie, "The Last Mimzy." (rated PG, I added the rating before the truth police checked up on it) Any way, here is the email I received from our dearly esteemed "OnenessTheologian."
Reverend Adams,
While lack of courage is the least problem of my persona, I respectfully believe it governs yours.
When an individual compromises ethical morality and sovereign word of God, it is he/she who lacks courage and indulges in self-gratification!
When conviction flees, self-disintegration draws nigh.
Your attempts in tracing my i.p. address have been unsuccessful as my residency is by far from you.Your decision of publicizing my emails abroad aff are of insignificant value to myself.
My dear brother, heed the word of the Lord.
Remember therefore from whence thou art fallen, and repent, and do the first works; or else I will come unto thee quickly, and will remove thy candlestick out of his place, except thou repent.
Maybe he just likes the attention he is receiving. Well, I am happy to be of service in meeting his deep felt need. Be blessed, OnenessTheologian, whoever you are!

What a novel idea! There you go!
Communicate with us, OT. We would all enjoy the dialogue. I'm sure there are people here who are more liberal than I am that you would enjoy as well. And there are people who are more conservative than you as well.
How 'bout it? There is a special for first time registerees.......it's free!

Wouldn't surprise me to find out "he" is a "she" and not really a UC. But, as long as you all are having fun......let the party continue!!
