Morality is not determined by the church you attend nor the faith you embrace. It is determined by the quality of your character and the positive impact you have on those you meet along your journey

Ah, the good old days. When dinner was ready on time and Satan was held at bay.
lol. I've said this many times before, but this is good place to restate! My mom was a fundie and she told me "my "intellect is of the devil". Took me a while, but I escaped , body, mind and soul. Took some time to emerge intact, but I have.
Congratulations, 2:35! You're one of the lucky ones!
That kind of crap almost brought about the death of my sister. It took me a long time to convince her that the crappy way she was raised was totally against her best interests. I kept trying to tell her that the husband was NOT the boss and was NOT infallible.
It took a good solid smack across the face - by her husband, not me - to wake her up.
When he came to and got up off the floor (I slugged him for hitting her, and I despise violence!) she looked at him and told him to leave - permanently.
I haven't lost my temper like that in decades and haven't since. But if you beat my sister...?
The good old days when White was Right and poor people were auctioned off to the Poor Farm. Work for no wages, but a roof over your head. Heat?? What do you think this is...the Marriott? Elderly and disabled? Fugedaboudit....go find a place to die. You're worthless.
And never burn his mac and cheese... Wash and iron his clothes... Ask politely for your allowance... Greet him at the door with your hair done nicely, wear something attractive, bring him his slippers, ashtray and light his cigarettes for him. And girls only go to college to find a husband.
I'm so glad those days are over! (Not that I ever encountered that "women as chattel" mindset in my lifetime)

GIRL POWER ! ! !
DeleteAnyone who talks about "Satan" ought to look in the friggin' mirror and STFU.
ReplyDeleteThese fundy's and their fairytales! So sick of them and their bullshit.
I wish the rapture was true only the floor cracking open and they all fall into hell, I don't believe in HELL but they do!!!
I'm old enough to remember a show called "Father knows best" and this picture looks like it could have been taken on the set.
