I guess I’m at another phase of my journey…but don’t know if I’ve made a definite decision about anything – other than I find it advantageous to be open-minded… you talked about finding the answers in Roman Catholicism grossly lacking…I feel the same way with some of the things I was taught in TWI. Acknowledging that lack is good – then I may be more willing to consider new ideas – and that may lead to something good…it’s a journey. Even though I said I may lean toward Christian agnosticism – I don’t mean it’s a constant struggle to believe there is a higher power or I don’t trust what the Bible says about Jesus Christ – I’m just saying I have my doubts at times…Maybe some of that is from deconstructing a former mindset…where I supposedly would know all I needed to know about God and the Bible as I continued to master PFAL…I’m just not 100% sure about anything anymore… I had grown so tired of being let down in life, when I lived as a fundamentalist …I don’t like surprises…not after being led astray by wierwille…we all know of someone or perhaps experienced it ourselves – the utter shock of finding out you’ve been duped..... it’s traumatizing because we so trusted and respected wierwille…it’s a lot of work to deconstruct your belief system all the way back to find what it was that got you to buy into it all... maybe even against your better judgment… ...doubts and questions - - maybe that’s the “still small voice” of critical thinking.

IIRC, the premiere of Spirits In The Athletes, was Pentecost, 1985. That was roughly 2 or 3 weeks after dictor croaked in May of that year, during the Annual Corpse Placements Meetings at HQ, which, THANKFULLY, the forehead barely attended cuz he was busy dancing and screwing the dancers. Most fun placements evah! Dictor was dead, and King Okie was owning every woman in his kingdom! I was “awarded” the prize for “Most lewd and lascivious comments” ever spoken at a placements meeting! LOL! I don’t think that’s necessarily anything to brag about, but it sure was funny. Pat Lynn put on a little birthday -party-like “ceremony” complete with candles-on-cupcakes, and those little cone-shaped party hats. LOL! IIRC, SITA, premiered on the Saturday of Pentecost weekend, 1985. There was this yuuuge after-party in the OSC. Da forehead wore a red velvet, black-collared smoking jacket with a belt ala Hugh Hefner, and allowed a receiving line of adoring fans to congratulate him. I got all the the region boys to the front of the line so we could be the first ones out. We spent the rest of the night at the WOODEN SHOE INN in Minster, chowin’ down on the best fried chicken and ice cold beer I have ever had! it was a total complete and total farce! But, EVERYONE, most especially Don and Howard was very happy to waste all that money just to keep the dope out of the day-to-day running, planning, thinking, and outreach of the minustray, which required higher functioning morons. LOL!............Peace all.

If you weren’t able to find a copy of Athletes of the Spirit – I was going to recommend the next best thing – Staying Alive. LCM said he received the original revelation for the idea but the Adversary beat him to the punch in production.
