[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless you grew up in the fundie southern baptist church (I did), you have no idea what you are talking about.  Do some research on Bill Gothard and IBLP.  Women do not have choices.  Do you see ANY women in leadership positions? Women don’t get to make decisions.  The SBC is pushing for head of household voting, ffs.  After my ex threw me down a set of stairs dislocation my shoulder, held a knife to my throat, tried to hold my head under water, held a pillow over my face…… I went to my pastor.  I was told divorce was never an option. That it was my fault for not being more submissive and sweet.

We are talking years of brainwashing. Pregnancy out of wedlock means giving the baby up to be raised by a decent family.  Then, you repent of your whorish ways and pray for forgiveness.  You won’t ever be forgiven.  Ever.

It is a cult, friends.  If you are a member of the SBC and haven’t experienced abuse, I’m so glad.  Do not discount the many who were horribly abused. [/quote]

Not, OP- but Interesting that  you mention this. Recently I've just started learning more about this group and the fundie movement. Why it's important? Their goal is to infiltrate our legislature to return laws to protect the patriarchial, Christian,  white, nuclear heterosexual family.

And it's working.

BapTists don’t have that  kind of power. Fundamentalists don’t either. I think you need to expand your sources of reading [/quote]

Oh really? Why do we have religious fundamentalidm laying the groundwork RIGHT NOW in local, state,  and national  elections and laws? Did you read the Roe leaked document? Roe vs. Wade is about to be overturned. Laws are also being developed right now to OVERRIDE individual state's laws for continued support for abortion if Row is overturned. Legislation has been introduced  regarding birth control, the morning after pill, and even miscarriage and ectopic pregnancy. Laws are being introduced  that criminally implicate  not  only the woman involved but  anyone even tangentially related to the event- the Uber driver, a spouse,  anyone  who had prior knowledge. Hotines to report any activity are actually  estsblished for the purpose of finding any or all parties involved. Parenthood is losing funding for basic health care.

School board races are flooded with rhetoric about so called CRT indoctrination, sexuality curriculum of any kind,  and basic history. And they are winning.  Florida is leading the way.

Are you quite sure now?  Have you been living under a rock?[/quote]

Please, take some Valium and also learn some common civility. Would you want your histrionic posts to be a signboard on your front yard? That’s a good yardstick. [/quote]
Literally nothing here that is uncivil -except  possibly the question about living under a rock(?) But, here's the thing- do you? Do you live under a rock because  otherwise how would you not know these things?  I would go back to your comment and decide who is not civil when you question  posters sources of reading. And, the funny thing is, you haven't read or seen or heard anything that has been going on.  You are the one who needs questioning,  and your response has something to do with civility. Are you kidding everyone here? Are you trolling?

** hey, also..so, ARE you the beagle poster? I'm guessing yes.

If so,  let's review what civility and humanity is.

Who is the beagle poster? No, that’s not me. I was responding to the shrill caps and the gratuitous rock statement.

And I’m pro-choice. If you want to change opinions, start by being civil. [/quote]

Like you were?

You absolutely would have had to been living under a rock to not know any of what was in the post. It was a much more civil way to point that out instead of calling you uneducated or any other unkind statement regarding  your cognitive state. No one here is trying to change an opinion. What was written was information. It was entirely factual, and was information you did not have, for reasons that are incomprehensible.   And, you are the one who suggested the first poster needed to read  more sources- that was insulting, and incorrect, so please refrain from lecturing others in etiquette.

Now that  we are here, please watch the acceptance  speech of the Pa  Repub primary candidate, Maistriano and tell us again  how fundamentalism isn't  trying to grab the legislature.

Yikes. Paras and paras slamming other posters. I’ll put my education and knowledge of current events up against yours any day. What you keep refusing to see—even as you keep piling on with your strident, childish, backhanded insults—is that I’m criticizing your demeanor here.

We both want Maistriano to lose in the general election. Your behavior drives would-be allies away. [/quote]

Also, Maistriano does not represent not ALL fundamentalists. Exaggerations like this aren’t honest. [/quote]
