Commented Sep 26, 2009 at 18:42:59 in Entertainment

“Got my "Love Tattoo" cd today. We are so behind in the U.S. This chick rocks. Can't wait till she comes to Seattle. I hope in the near future.”

“In the interview, Imelda said they were hoping to return to the U.S. either later this year or in early 2010. I understand her recent London show with Jeff Beck went well, so maybe they can tour America together. We can only hope. Thanks for the comments, THOR.”

“When I was in a fundamentalist church I was taught that, "Anyone who is not a member of the church of Christ is not fit to live." Paranoid? Nope. Been there, done that. There are more lunatics out there than you think.”

“Therefore, just to be safe, we need to act as if everyone's a lunatic?”

“When I was in a fundamentalist church I was taught that, "Anyone who is not a member of the church of Christ is not fit to live." This is not a boogeyman, this is real, and real scary. There are more lunatics out there than you think.”

“My wife and I went through leaving a funamentalist church. We eventually got "disfellowshipped" (ex-communnicated, whatever). It was one of the most painful and terrifying times of our lives. It's been 20 years now and the pain still hits once in a while. The best thing to do is to try to leave quietly, if they will let you. Find some people who are going or have gone through the same situation. There are more out there than you might think. Undoubtedly you will need support.

We are so glad to be free to live in reality without this fantasy god thing keeping us from growing.”

“Wow. it sounds horrible. Many people have found support at www.exChristian.net. Also, Marlene Winell, Ph.D. has a therapy practice focusing on recovery from toxic religion. She works by telephone with people who have no-one in their area. She is at: http://marlenewinell.net/

“The religious right is certainly an ignorant bunch, and proud of it. They have no concept of history. See "The God Who Wasn't There."”

“Marriage is NOT necessarily a religious issue. Marriage is a legal contract between two people. Period. The God thing has been injected into it. At one time the Church wouldn't have anything to do with it because it is fleshly. Eventually they learned that it could be a control weapon and money maker. I don't believe in God(s), my wife doesn't believe in God(s). So, are we not really married?”

“Thor is right,She is lovely is every way as I saw a couple years ago while watching racing on TVG.When her mother ran her horse in Del Mar with her daughter in tow.Her delight at watching her moms horse win and her charm as the tv guy stumbled over himself while interviewing her confirmed that she is as lovely inside as she is on the outside.I saw that nasty remark about her a few months ago and was surprised at how angry it made me.A nice young lady indeed!”
