  1. Just when you thought you'd heard it all.
  2. Maybe this is what VeePee was trying to quote:
  3. What did you plan to do with the gun? Stop anyone who tried to ride away on one of Wierwille's many ill-gotten Harleys?
  4. waysider New Testament: But Jesus waysider said to them, "There is no Prophet geisha without honour except in his her own country, and among his her own relatives, and in his her own home farmhouse."
  5. Based on THIS link, it appears there were four graduates. They better ramp it up if they ever hope to catch up with Gramps.
  6. While I see your point, 1 hallucination of snow on the gas pumps stirred quite a bit of zealous activity. Of course, maybe it was just a lie from its inception and not a hallucination.
  7. I had suspicions about a few things as early as the mid 1970's but never really knew what happened until I happened onto GreaseSpot. (I "left" in 1990.) Like others have stated, I, too, thought what I was seeing was isolated.
  8. That's pretty much what we've been asking all along. So far, though, no answers.
  9. You packed a gun???? :o Why?
  10. Hey! Maybe this rubbish dump thing explains why "Dr.'s Last Teaching" has been missing all these years. It's been floating amidst the miles and miles of toxic garbage, virtually indistinguishable from all the other trash.
  11. When I was in high school, I was in a band that played at school dances and such. One of the tunes we did was Mr. Tambourine Man. (The Byrds cover version) We added a verse that made reference to an issue of local importance. Therefore, I think it is safe to say that we were actually the true authors of Mr.Tambourine Man. :blink:
  12. Hi, crystalclearblue Yes, it is sad. The Way promised to deliver a pie-in-the-sky utopia (via what they claimed was "God's Word") that defies the reality of how real life works. Maybe we were all just too young and naive to see it (The Way) for what it really was, a money making scheme for VPW & Co. Anyway, welcome to GSC. Have a latte on the house.
  13. Friends, it's time once again for some HOMEGROWN TOMATOES.

    Please tell me

    Hey there, tagster Have you ever seen elderly people talking on the TV news about how they've been swindled out of their life savings? On one hand, it's got to be awfully embarrassing for them to expose their vulnerability. But, it must be liberating, as well, for them to realize what actually happened. That's kinda how this place is. It hurts like the dickens when you first find out you were scammed. Then, it starts to feel better when you start to realize it wasn't all your fault. Good luck, whatever you decide to do.
  19. I, for one, would be interested in hearing about the mechanics of the program. What was an average day like? How was it scheduled? Did you have free time to just relax? What were mealtimes like? What sort of food program did you have? What were the housing arrangements? Did you have group work projects? What was offered in the way of academic study? Are these questions general enough to keep things neutral?
  20. Manipulation---The wayfer mindset needs it to survive. She may have distanced herself from them physically, but, mentally, she is still a "Way believer".
  21. Two Points: 1. Using the logic of this definition, someone starting a revival of 1920's music or macrame purse making could be considered an "apostle". 2. Who gets to decide what is "light" and what isn't?
  22. Well, the point I was trying to make was that Wierwille promoted, no, endorsed this "head in the sand" kind of attitude about environmental issues. According to him, this stuff was irrelevant because, even if Christ didn't return in our lifetime, we could use "believing" to fix it all. We can't really ruin the planet. It's just a trick of the adversary. Everything would be "okay" because God already saw it in his foreknowledge and had a plan to fix it. Don't bother wasting your time or money on these things. Sell PLAF and keep the ABS flowing.
