I take it that you dont go out to many churches. Being that my profession involves working in churches I go to about 50 or more a year and I havent heard that phrase at any of them in about 18 years-- and when I did hear it last, back in 1991, it that was a grand total of exactly once. I dont know where you are going to hear these things but it is not commonplace at all, and certainly not nearly as common as youd lead others to believe. Whats with all the church hate anyway ? Is John 13:35 not in your bible? did someone rip it out or twist it around somehow I knew that they used to because they sent me their mailers (advertisements) for abunch of years--after checking their site--well yup. lookee, lookee they still do2 points

And you know this because you've been in a variety of churches? Or is it because you've been told that's what they teach. You sound like a replay of Martinale.2 points

Honestly no-they are not for me. I dont understand the jubilation at a free Bible teaching Is that something new, remarkable and revolutionary somewhere? I can walk into just about any church in the world or turn on the TV in just about any city or poke around the internet and hear bible teachings for free anytime of the day or night. If you like them ---fine--but its not like they are doing anything new, or that they shouldnt be doing anyway. Is it? The weird part was that they were ever charging in the first place2 points

As some of you may or may not have noticed, I frequently post a "shout" describing what I am making for breakfast on Sunday mornings. I am an early riser and only cook breakfast on Sunday mornings, though sometimes I will also cook breakfast on a holiday. So, I get up at 5:30, start the coffee (I skip running "to the tree and back"---a bit of Fellow Laborer humor), grab the paper from the front stoop and, simultaneously, start on the crossword puzzle and breakfast. Through all the clatter of pots and pans, sizzling, chopping and stirring, the two cats remain completely oblivious to the commotion. Not a whimper, not so much as a twitch emerges from those seemingly immobile clumps of fur. Now, no matter what else I make, I will also make a couple strips of bacon and 2 scrambled eggs for my wife. Still, this activity goes completely unnoticed by the cats. But, as soon as my wife's feet hit the floor and head for the kitchen, the cats instantly come alive as the unrelenting begging and whining begin. I'm not really sure how much of the "bacon and eggs" my wife actually consumes. I only know there is none left as the whining subsides and the two cats curl up, once again, to a motionless morning slumber. ----Bon appetite!1 point

Rascal YOU need to lighten up...a lot...not a bit. Jeff is still relatively new and you of all people come down on him - not an unusual pattern though...however you of all people should know that it takes time for a lot of people...not all...some of us just walked out and were done in 10 minutes instead of spending 2 more decades publicly portraying victimhood ( oh and don't play your usual word twist game here - I didn't name any names about the 2 decades of whining - but you know darn well it's true for some)...oh yeah - GEEZ I MISSED IT - YOU DID POST IT TAKES TIME - so you lighten up on Jeff..everything you lay on Jeff you should listen to yourself. Heya Jeff - she does have a point about Caleb apologizing - let's see what the young pup has to say about sewers. And don't worry Jeff - with a temper like his he won't pass the psych exam to be in law enforcement - except maybe in Mississippi or NK.1 point

that was a backhanded apology so not accepted and also the Word of God according to the bible is jesus not the bible.1 point

ok so this is going to give it away that i'm single and have been for maybe too long but me and my cat have breakfast together most mornings and when we do she eats at the table with me sitting in her own chair on a couple of phone books with her plate right on the table and the food is whatever i'm eating so if it's eggs she gets eggs and if it's cereal she gets cereal but she doesn't eat toast or bagels but she does eat the the cream cheese and jelly or the cottage cheese and tomatoes if i put salt and pepper on them. she's my best friend and i love her too much maybe but she loves me too.1 point

Hey Caleb, As far as your first post and my former response I want you to realize that I meant every freakin word of it! I also want you to know that I do not hold anything personally against you and my response was not an attack at you. It is just that most all of us at the greasespot has seen that "passive aggressive crapola" that spewed out of your computer in the very first post in your thread. And I guess we all have different ways of dealing with it. Here you are looking at a possible career in law enforcement and one of the first things out of you mouth (so-to-speak) is a direct threat from you that any of us may have a p!ssed of redneck knocking at our door. Well that prospect really does not frighten me. I have kept my head in more bad situations than you are years old I'm fairly certain. And I know how to deal with that "fight or flight" adrenalin rush that goes with those situations and can still manage to hold onto my poker face through it all. Let me tell you something boy, IF YOU EVER THREATEN ANYONE HEAR AT THE GREASESPOT AGAIN I WILL BE MORE OR LESS PERMANENTLY PO'D AT YOU UNTIL YOU SEE HOW VILE THAT BEHAVIOR REALLY IS. I mean what is it, do you like the idea of threatening women, kids, and people who are still recovering from the very ministry brutallity that you have already abundantly proved yourself capable of? And then even while threatening to be pounding at some kids door as an angry redneck you have the unmitigated gall to say that you want to keep things respectful? I suggest you take a real hard look at how you and your "Great man of God" use anger and threats. And if you can honestly say that threatening people who have been so badly beat up by their TWI experiences that some of us still need to find a reason every day to keep going sounds anything like JESUS CHRIST, then fine, but I know that you will not be able to justify your brutal behavior unless you have already became settled in TWI style delusion when it comes to determining who needs tenderness vs. who needs a slap in the face. I'll tell you what, go ahead and ask your best law enforcement teacher what he/she thinks of your first post. I'm betting that if you don't actually have a change of heart that they would consider it a black mark on you for the rest of your law enforcement career. You dumbazz kid! You are not practicing a biblical faith here so far. Who taught you this crapola?1 point

I cook an egg for me every morning. My cats have had eggs (raw, beaten), once - maybe twice. Cooked? You must be joking. So, Ham, does that mean I eat cat food?1 point

We're new around here to cat world, so we're figuring it all out; the kitten is 13 weeks old. Cook an egg? I guess I would, sure if she requested it from the menu1 point

I think the questions here will fall into two categories: 1. How "connected" to twi and pfal is the group sponsoring S.O.W.E.R.S.? Is vp the elder talked about as if he were some kind of patriarch? Are his wrong-doings acknowledged? The plagiarism. The drunkeness. The abuse. It doesn't matter how old v2p2 was when his gramps died. v2's dad was an adult and he knew full well what was going on in that cornfield. How much "family history" does the young grasshopper know? If der Victoid is being set up as some sort of great guy - that would speak of deep-seated dishonesty. It sure seems like v2p2 is being used because of his name. 2. What are the details of the program you just completed? So many of us here saw abuse in twi - that we keep hearing playing in our heads. <===== click the link - it's been sanitized of all debbil spurts!Good luck answering these questions - hopefully the answers you give us will also help you.1 point

< < < ----------- My real name. No smoke or mirrors here. Hey there Caleb. Welcome to Grease Spot. I'm old enough to be your grandfather, so (if I may) I'll offer some advice here. Are you wanting to share your experience with SOWERS? If so, folks here will be interested in hearing about it. I saw your retraction about the "fighting issue", and was glad to see that. Antagonism never gets you anywhere. Especially here at GSC. You need to realize that many of us were burned by twi, and have little (if any) love for the org. You can extoll the virtues of what you went through/ are going through all you want, but if it sounds like twi - - - You need to realize you're going to be facing criticism from those who have gone through the same, albeit in a different time and space. So - - - have at it. To say you've taken on a monumental task is an understatement. Good luck, and God bless.1 point
