Hey Galen, that's a great story. I see your point about the lighting, and not being in any of the footage. I would LOVE a youtube link, if you could provide one. Thanks for the advice on getting somebody to take a pic of me at all the sites. I honestly had not thought about that. But yeah, sounds like you had an interesting time! I actually was at the singles camp that CES ran in the Smokey Mountains in May of 2000, and I know they were talking about the upcoming trip to Israel, and I was really jealous. Just like you, I'm finally getting what I want, 14 years later, lol. I bet you didn't ever think you were going to have to wait 13 years to see the footage of the trip!

Okay George, thanks for the info, and the extra clue, though I'm still clueless. I'm going to guess Car 54 Where are you? I don't know. I'm just guessing okay!!!

I don't know Broken Arrow. People come and go in other churches too I'm sure. But the wayfers are such a cliquish little group, it's not like they fit in well with the mainstream communities. I mean, in their normal everyday jobs they might, but if they invited somebody over for "fellowship" most people who have never been exposed to them feel very uncomfortable. Especially when the mog starts calling people by name for the manifestations. I've noticed that when the kids who grow up there get married, it's quite likely another child of a wayfer-offshooter. In fact one thing ( out of a zillion) that sticks out in my mind was when the mog of Naperville told somebody who told me, (back in the 90s) that he was concerned with the "kids" in the group, cause when they grew up and went to college or whatever, would they come back to naperville? I was like, huh? That's as far as this group's vision extends? The flat earth wayfer society of naperville? The world ends at that point? sheesh.

Love Boat? lol. Okay that was a joke. Mash addicts will probably kill me (because I'm sure I'm wrong) but I'm going to guess Mash because I have no clue. PS: I'm coming back to edit this but I'm NOT changing my answer, but I'm asking if it is cheating if you want to come back and change your answer before somebody else posts? Or once you post your answer do you have to stick with what you posted?...even if nobody is looking...;)

Okay, so they are using the people in the field who are working and witnessing. And I like the way you put "to support their communal lifestyle." I'm getting a better understanding of the Wayfers Incorporated. One wonders if they will all just die off or if the younger generation will carry on. Anyone notice how the hardcore offshoots try to inbreed their kids? Heaven forbid one of their kids should marry a Presbyterian or worse, a Catholic! lol. ;) But, that's another thread I suppose....

Oh I bet Schoenheit gives a GREAT Bible Land tour. Out of curiosity I looked on his website and saw they are doing one in July of this year. But like I said, I'd rather go with a local group. Otherwise you meet these great people all over the country, and you never SEE anybody again. So this will have more of a local community feel to it. But thanks for the reminder of not buying EVERYTHING in site, lol.

I cheated, I looked it up.. It was driving me crazy, and I already was going crazy on the movie thread. lol.
-
Well you got the Mel Gibson connection right away, that was amazing. Dang, you guys are getting really hard. This sounds like a really good film though. French films (the 2 or 3 that I've seen, lol) have been really good.
-
Well there must be people out in the real world who have real jobs who are enabling these bubble heads. I just can't imagine WHY? The offshoots have a small cluster of people who support their given mog, so I'm figuring the Wayfers in the cornfield must be the same way. There must be a small cluster of people who are suckered into supporting all this.
-
I hope somebody gets this soon because this is driving me absolutely bananas.

Was this a horror movie? Can I ask that?

Skyrider: Thanks for answering. Wow, I really am beginning to understand. Good little Pharisees, cleaning the outside and the inside is garbage. Wow. "Oh, sure......they say their mission is "spiritual," but its a two-bit, low-traffic, indoctrination zone that is fueled by vaunted egos of self-importance that tens of millions have never even heard of" That I agree with 1000%! My goodness! They (and I mean the offshoots as well) really think they are the center of the universe in their little world, and the truth is they are a very small part of a very BIG Christian world out there. You know, the more I think about them, the more angry they make me. All their speaking in tongues and prophecy, and classes and they really don't do a damned thing. These other ministries do SOMETHING. Helping old people, visiting people in prison, writing letters, whatever call God puts on your heart, even animals! But these pompous a$$es think they are so elite and spiritual. What a bunch of freaking goats. I know, I guess I could do better myself, but it still makes me mad. Especially since I was ONE OF THEM at one time. :asdf:/> outandabout: I hear you, lol.

My agnostic boss, is one of the most ethical people I've met in my life. He will do something, because it's the right thing to do. He DOES get angry when people screw him over, because he is very fair and just with people. I think the reason many people don't believe in God, is because Christians can fall far short of showing Him in their own lives. Myself included. :(

If anyone cares to answer this.. I'm really curious as to what exactly they do there all day long. I mean, what is their "mission" I remember asking this ex-wayfer-Wierwille loyalist this once, back in the offshoot days, and she threw back her shoulders and huffed out her chest and proclaimed proudly "TO RESEARCH THE ACCURACY OF GOD'S WORD." I was like, ummm.....So what do they DO??? I don't think she really got what I was asking. A ministry is supposed to be doers of the Word, and not hearers. So really, can somebody tell me what they DO all day long? How do they get their money? And what the heck do they do with it? I guess the same can be said of many offshoots, and even many mainstream churches...to be fair.

Geez Louise, it seems to me somewhere in the back of my mind, I remember seeing a news blurb on this, within the last 10 years I'm gonna say. I just can't remember what movie it was!
-
OKAY George, gotcha! I was thinking about that too, thanks for the help and I'll catch on! :) And YES! It is Mask, lol. Your turn. :)
-
I think I'll do a little bit more. First you told me he was gonna be retarded, then you told me he was gonna be blind AND deaf. If I'd dug his grave every time one of you geniuses told me he was gonna die, I'd be eating (bleep) chop suey in China by now!
-
OH WOW! That was such a totally 80s chick flick movie that was one I knew. Okay!!! Give me a little bit here, Let me think of one...I have a movie in mind, I just have to find the lines. OKAY... I'm going to start off with this line, then if nobody gets it, I'll give a better one. Here it is.... Don't worry, Mr. Simms. I look weird, but otherwise I'm real normal. Everything'll be cool.

That's a really nice song.

About Last Night? (I'm just playing to sharpen my skills here)
-
YAY!! WordWolf!!!!! :) :) :) So happy you got it! It is the Neverending Story! lol. Your turn!
-
Okay, this might not be one that you guys know, so ONE more clue. It was a popular movie when it came out in 1984. It was based on a book, which draws you into the book, which never ends. The book describes the fantasy world of Fantasia which is being threatened by a force called "The Nothing," a void of darkness that consumes everything. OH COME ON!! I know Somebody on GS knows this! PS. I inadvertently gave away part of the title! oops! ;)

Slowly learning that God is God and no matter how hard I try I can't make Him into a malleable God of my choosing and liking.
-
OKAY I'll take a shot at this. This is going to be an easy one, lol. My first shot. "MOON CHILD!" This German fantasy novel, was later made into several films. Hmm, that should be enough!!!
