    check out my fall class schedule!

    Wow! You'll be busy. I'm liking everything except Intermediate Algebra. If I have to solve for more than one unknown I am so lost. :confused: Monday will be your long day. Best of luck and enjoy! :thumbsup:

    Religious tattoos

    Oooohhh... I've pondered getting a tattoo for about ten years now and it never occurred to me to get a religious tattoo. I always thought more in terms of butterflies and flowers or a peace sign, but this is a new idea to think about. I'm squeamish about the pain. I don't know why. I've had...

    Isn't This Cute?

    "You don't have to agree with the decision, for most of us don't, but you do need to respect those in authority. That is Biblical." -LeeD I'm so confused. It is Biblical to respect those in authority on a message board? If the thirteen colonies had persisted in respecting the authority of...

    Isn't This Cute?

    I can only go by personal experience. I've met many Fundies since I met my husband. There are nine of them that I can think of off of the top of my head. I am very tolerant of them (except for the one who just went to prison for child abduction and rape) and all of the intolerance has been...

    Isn't This Cute?

    I am convinced that it is all about fear. I have had eleven years of experience with my husband's fundy friends and family. I have had two occasions where Creationism was brought up by a fundy in our house and I began to give my theistic evolution beliefs (and even those beliefs of mine are in...

    Learning to "take" teasing

    I was trying to put this idea into words and you saved me the trouble! :) My feelings are very vulnerable with my family and friends, and luckily for me they love me and don't want to hurt me. As for other people, I try not to put too much stock into anything hurtful that they might say...

    Unitarian Universalism

    My parents were married in a UU church in 1968. Interestingly enough, most of my dad's Catholic family refused to attend the wedding, and his immediate family (my grandma, grandpa, aunts and uncles) sat in the back row in protest. Anyway, my grandma attended a UU church for over fifty years...

    Help! I'm a heathen!

    It's almost four years later and I have an interesting, yet tragic update to my original thread. First, my husband has become much more tolerant throughout our marriage. I think just being around new people (my family and friends) and new ideas (mine, my family, and friends) and coming out...

    Say Hi, Gracie (Newbies say hello thread)

    Hi! I'm not really a newbie, but it's been about 1 1/2 years since my last visit. I thought I'd introduce myself again before just jumping in after such a long time away. My name is Michelle. I live in Ohio with my husband and four children. I consider myself to be a very liberal minded...

    Liberal/Fundy Quiz

    1) If your sister was about to marry a Hindu priest whom you never met, would you advise her against getting married based in his religion? No 2) If you saw a lady with very short hair, would you think about the biblical stance on short hair for woman? No 3) Are you offended by the sight of...

    Is the Difference between Liberals and Fundamentalists a class issue?

    I can only go by personal experience, but the fundies that I know are uneducated, not necessarily poor, but lacking "worldliness." I think that a lack of worldly knowledge, experience, personal exposure (not through the nightly news) to a wide variety of people all tend to make a person more...

    Are there people here who aren't "allowed" into WWMC,

    I feel pretty comfortable here, but I avoid bringing up the "taboo" subjects because I remember when I first registered here, I was under the impression that the liberal forum was "safe" from conservatism. I didn't read the rules, I guess, because I received some stereotypical conservative...

    Conservative -> Liberal

    Thinking of political and philosophical conservatism as "growing up" is the exact opposite of what I believe. People who are "grown up" don't exclude others because they are poor, or gay, or a different race. People who are "grown up" realize that Jesus loves all of God's children regardless...
