Like a car dealer that turns back mileage.....He knows it's wrong but getting caught is not part of his plan.

Would you care to cite a few of these studies?

"I was 22 when I got in the word, but I find no relevance in that." Then, apparently, your opinion contradicts valid scientific studies that indicate a 22 year old's brain is not fully developed in relation to making decisions involving risky behavior.

Please accept my apology. Sometimes things that seem clear to me are really.....ummm...not so clear.

Use Me....Bill Withers (One of my roomies in FLO used to sing this all the time.) Free Post!!

Well, some people would just say they're tough to read.....you're too kind. :)

"You're always welcome at The Way.".....VPW

I'm still trying to figure out how you can be kicked out of an organization that has no membership.

When I first got in da verd, I was a big fan of Spirit and King Crimson. They told me I had to get rid of that seed boy music or the booger man would get me. BOO!!!

Peeeee Eff Ay Ell la la la la It's a class that's really swell la la la la C'mon, everybody! Sing with me!!

Yeah, it was supposedly about drugs, or possession or something. If you really listen to the lyrics, it's just about a guy's experience trying to write a song in the wee hours of the morning, when he's already exhausted.. Sheesh!

Sitting crosslegged on the floor. Should I try to post some more?

Heh! I guess to bring it all back on track, I should point out that we once came under heavy criticism from the powers that be in TWI for listening to this kind of "devilish" music. Bwaaahaa!! I mean, there's not one single mention in the lyrics of the PFAL class or the need to go out WOW. "Where's the profit?"

"No. Nothing worth complaining about at THIS age." Brain Development Although the brain reaches its full adult weight by the age of 21, it continues to develop for several years. In fact, a study done by the National Institutes of Health found that the region of brain that inhibits risky behavior does not fully form until age 25. This is the final stage of brain development......SOURCE Soooooo....How old were you when you first became involved with The Way?

Maybe they were "spiritually mature" hippies. :o

I'm not sure if I should call this dumb or ironic. When I was in FellowLaborers (a 2 year, in-residence program) in the mid 1970s, sex was forbidden, except for the married couples, with their own spouses. Violation of this rule would get you the boot, instantly, if you were discovered. Also on the forbidden list was pornography, drugs and alcohol. And, they randomly rifled through your belongings to make sure you were on the up and up. Now, all these years later, it is glowingly obvious that this very sort of activity was taking place, simultaneously, only 2 hrs. away at The Way Int. HQ. ....And some people want to talk about double standards?

Nope...No idea.

Yes, that's plain wrong.... You should have been believing for your kid not to poop.
