"Thanks for sharing. My story is somewhat similar, though I was literally raised from birth in a Pentecostal church. I pulled away as a teenager (I'm a child of the 50's - grew up in the 60's), and went whole hog into the…"

Fred Rock replied to Jenny's discussion The Awesome Response Of Mom in the group Life After Christian Fundamentalism

Fred Rock replied to Larissa Rivera's discussion Coming out.... to myself
"Hey Larissa,
I came to this point around 2 years ago after 55 years of being involved in religion. I must say that the first year was the hardest for me. Its like there's a disconnect between the enlightened mind and the indoctrinated emotions…"

"Nice!"
Fred Rock replied to Nathan Phelps's discussion Why Waste My Time Arguing About The Bible? in the group Life After Christian Fundamentalism
"I'm with you on this one. When a christian wants to debate based on the authority of the bible, its a complete waste of time, and the ultimate circular argument. I can see the validity of highlighting the inconsistencies of the bible as a means…"

sk8eycat commented on Ruth Anthony-Gardner's group Hang With Friends"Tony, I love that clip! "Wolf Gets Blitzed"...tee-hee.
