Yoga, dancing, cards, "Dungeons and Dragons", martial arts, rock music, alcohol and drugs, pizzas, movies, TV, books that weren't the Bible, carpet, other denominations, air, pretty much everything. (Sports were usually seen as okay, though.) I do remember that while I was at David Lipscomb College in the early 1980s, one guy gave a "chapel talk" about the dangers of yoga. The mindset is "Ye ol' Debbil izza everywheer, an' he out ta gitcha ya!" The ole prowler like a lion looking to bite your ass! 👹😀 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you go off the deep end when you deconverted and do everything in rebellion, are you still conservative because it's now ingrained, something else?

Thank my evolving brain for rescuing me from such insanity. When I was growing up in the "Funny Fundie" church every damn thing was a sin. Just saying "damn" was a sin, cutting my hair was a sin, wearing make-up - extremely sinful as was dancing! wearing pants/jeans was a sin, going to the cinema was a sin (this was in the 60s & 70s) - everything short of breathing was a damn, fucking sin! And if it wasn't a sin, then whatever (ungodly activity, especially those with roots in Eastern religion) such as yoga was demonic, or listening to rock 'n roll or heavy metal was devil's music. (I remember at a cousins wedding having to turn down someone asking me to dance. My parents sat there in judgement watching these "sinners" having a good time.) I missed out on so much fun stuff in my youth all because of fear and repression. No wonder my poor brain got into a tangle of anxiety and depression having the living hell scared out of me since I was a child and right into adulthood! My brain is now pretty well untangled, thank the universe and its remarkable positive influences and great modern thinkers such as the late great Carl Sagan and his protege Neil De Grasse Tyson who carries on his work today, the inimitable, unforgettable, late great Christopher Hitchens, Richard Dawkins, Stephen Hawkins, Richard Carrier, Sam Harris, Daniel Dennett, Bart Ehrman, Valerie Tarico, Marlene Winnell (just to name a few) and certainly not forgetting the great minds and thinkers on this site. I'll take the intelligent words of these guys and gals over the dumb little ex-witch any day! I am just dismayed (in this day and age) that some of my relatives and some Christian friends still buy into this nonsense feeling the need to post it on Facebook as a warning to others. Some church leaders have an insatiable appetite for control and know that scaring and shaming are key. Of course if the sheeple (we've all been one) don't go along with the nonsense then they TRULY ARE demonic! Must...resists..urge..to..use.. MRS MOHO ... in ...example...

I remember some goofy Pentecostal church that convinced some of my military friends to break all their evil rock and roll records. One told me he regretted his stupidity and bought all those records again. LoL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JenniferG Posted August 25, 2017 Author Share Posted August 25, 2017 I used to listen to Bob Larson's radio show when I was doing a 1 and a 1/2 hour commute to McGill U in Montreal in the early 90s. That guy had mental issues, for sure. He was the religious McCarthy! McCarthy saw communists under every bed. Larson saw demons everywhere!

Remember also that after leaving office, Reagan had his house number changed from 666 St. Cloud Road to 668 St. Cloud Road in Los Angeles. AND his wife consulted astrologers. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Number_of_the_Beast But that was then, this is now: Donald Trump = 666Using Simple6,74 English7,74 Gematria8,74 (google that) and 'the key'74 of A=1, B2, C3...Z26, we find...evil=48=E5+V22+I9+L12 Now we add 48 to each letter creating the Evil=48 Code with the alphanumeric code/cipher of A=49, B50, C51...Z74, and we get... Donald Trump = 666 = D52+O63+N62+A49+L60+D52 + T68+R66+U69+M61+P64 Donald Trump is the current Antichrist: his actions are the opposite of the Christ. He's a compulsive/pathological liar, extremely greedy and boastful, very prejudice and misogynistic, very nationalistic and militaristic, wants to torture without judicial process. https://www.tapatalk.com/groups/7seals/donald-trump-666-using-evil-48-code-ronald-6-lette-t5.html (NOT POLITICAL -- I'm just sayin' those silly christbots will believe anything, including bible-forbidden numerology, as long as it suits their purpose. ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SerenelyBlue Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 Where in the Bible does it say all these things about demons and shit? Christians come up with all this fantastic information. From where I might ask? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ellinas Posted August 26, 2017 Share Posted August 26, 2017 A work colleague goes to a weekly yoga class. She calls it "fart club" because of the effect it has on her flatulence (very difficult to hold it in when in certain positions, apparently). Does that count as exorcism? 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
