Pretty sure HBA was raised Pentacostal. They're crazy even by fundamentalist standards.

I have a friend from oil rig country. He said they pretty much just got drunk and went dirt roading.

That was just... fucked up. Not that I'm surprised that it happened, but all the same.
Which means that to me the offer of certainty, the offer of complete security, the offer of an impermeable faith that can\'t give way, is the offer of something not worth having.

Watching that young lady cry on camera was so sad.  Why can't people understand that bullying kids is bullying kids.... no matter What the foundation for doing so?  eesh  
Home schooling will not help this kid get the athletic scholarship she likely deserves.  Just sad.

Poor girl :(

That school sounds like it has a problem with institutionalised bulling.

yep. my post shouldn't be taken to claim all okies are crazy. in fact my Baptist mom took me away from my dad (they're divorced) temporarily specifically in response to the exorcism. she was pissed. so even within my own family they don't all do this, but my home church sure did.

no I am not making up what happened to me.

The school sounds like it has a problem with education - the education (or lack of it) of the people running it.

Religion of love my ass.

With one religion of love, and another religion of peace, who needs war and murder?  Love and peace can reduce us to an nonviable population all by themselves.
