I have a Facebook account only to be able to see photos of my grandson that my DIL will post. I have never posted on my FB account at all, as I don't like Facebook, I think it is the Devil's playground. I know it can be used as a witnessing tool, but i think it does more harm than good. Too many people have been hurt, the same with My Space and Twitter. People can post things as fast as they think them without filtering and with the way the world is today, so intolerant and hateful, it is dangerous.
Anyway,I looked at my DIL's Facebook today and she was high fiving Jon Stewart and saying "great job Jon"...blah blah!! Last week she was on the gay bandwagon and about how rotten the small minded people are that don't want gays together and for them to back off the gays and we are all bigots.
My son doesn't even know how to log on to FB, he doesn't do that stuff and he is very conservative. She was always moderate, but now she is going off the deep end. I don't think my son and DIL talk politics among themselves, he always says she doesn't keep up with things so he saves those conversations for our side of the family, his work friends and personal friends so I wonder if he knows how crazy liberal his wife is getting on FB.
I am upset, but all I can do is pray for her. My son is saved but he needs a strong Christian to encourage him, he has fallen away. Why he married a lapsed Catholic, I'll never know!! image

So, high fiving a personality from a comedy show (Jon Stewart is on Comedy Central) is extreme liberalism?
OMG, these people need to find reality.
...he is very conservative. She was always moderate...
My son is saved but...he married a lapsed Catholic
Hugs, the blame is clearly yours. How you could have ever let this unholy abomination of a "marriage" take pace is beyond belief. You should have held your breath, stomped your feet and demanded he dump the bitch or else your family would disown him.
You had the opportunity to keep him with Christ and you completely blew it. Way to go.
I'm on Facebook but get really irritated by all the "Jesus is my Lord and savior, if you agree post this as your status" messages. It was so bad when I first joined I was tempted to cancel my account. Maybe I just know too many religious people and need to friend more atheists.
Why he married a lapsed Catholic, I'll never know!!
Oh no! Anything but that! She's an evil sinner who's been deceived by Satan!
I'm wondering if this lady's son just pretends to be conservative in front of his mom in order to placate her, but secretly agrees with his wife.
(nutbunny)
(laughs) No. If this woman actually did fit the "Buybull Belt resident = incest-friendly" stereotype, it'd probably be BILF instead. "DIL" stands for daughter-in-law.
"Last week she was on the gay bandwagon and about how rotten the small minded people are that don't want gays together and for them to back off the gays and we are all bigots."
Good for her, because you are. You've just admitted as much by complaining about it, you stupid twunt.
"Why he married a lapsed Catholic, I'll never know!! "
Is this your business? If your son finds out that you are likely to interfere in his family life, then you are into very deep water indeed. You run the risk of being cut out of his life altogether.
There was a chap in town the other day. He was gabbling away nineteen to the dozen. I said, "Slow down mate. What are you on about and why are you gabbling at me?" Turns out, he was trying to relate to me that I should be saved, or something, from what exactly, I don't know. Something to do with sin and intolerant deities. Anyway, it turns out he was witnessing to me about a period of his own gullibility when he was much younger. I said, "Go away and come back when you can witness to me about a time that you've obtained wisdom." He went. I've never seen the twerp since.

*Gasp* and you're purposely playing on the devil's playground?
My son doesn't even know how to log on to FB, he doesn't do that stuff and he is very conservative.
Now THERE'S a True(TM) Christian. Too bad he won't be seeing his mother in heaven as she decided to sell her soul to the devil and join Facebook. Oh well, heaven's supposed to be bliss so I'm sure he won't miss you at all or even think about you while you're writhing in agony for all eternity. And I'm sure he won't mind the thought of his wife and children suffering for eternity either. Isn't god great?
I've become an atheist and given up all my pretensions to religiosity. I am now advising police forces of the world about religious crime. There is a large dossier opened for that super-villain in Rome, and another for that not-quite-so-super,-in-fact-more-of-a-tawdry-villain somewhere in the Pakistani mountains.
This advice is for vigilant citizens everywhere. If you should see God, not very likely as he prefers invisibility, but on the off chance that you do, then immediately make a citizens arrest. Say, "God, I arrest you in the name of the law, for genocide and other dirty deeds done in collusion with that master criminal in Rome, the Pope." Clamp handcuffs on Him or tie His arms behind His back with rope and drag Him off to the nearest police station.
Unless He fixes the jury, He should receive several hundred years behind bars. Yet, for writing this against Him, He says that I'll be tortured for eternity. Methinks He is a bit of an intemperate madman as well as a villain worthy of a long internment.
I don't like public spaces, I think they are the Devil's playground. I know they can be used as a witnessing tool, but I think it does more harm than good. Too many people have been hurt, the same with anywhere outside our church compound. People can say things as fast as they think them without filtering and with the way the world is today, so intolerant and hateful, it is dangerous.
Same mindset, different medium. See how crazy and fearful you sound yet?
"People can post things as fast as they think them without filtering and with the way the world is today, so intolerant and hateful , it is dangerous."
Someone needs to take a look in the fucking mirror.
"Too many people have been hurt, the same with My Space and Twitter."
And phones, and writing, and speech. Communication technologies can be used to witness the Word, but the fact is that they are mainly used to spread the corruption of the earthly ways. Therefore we should abolish all of them, and go back to our empty-brained perfection from before the original sin. Reactionary!Fundie!God is great !
Actually, now that I think about it, there's a comparable situation between two of my most favouritest fundies EVAR : Andrew Schlafly and Jack Chick. Assfly, you love to hate him. While Chick... I'm almost worried that he's going senile.
Hm, assuming the son really thinks that she doesn't keep up on things (presumably because she's female), it really makes you wonder how that relationship works.
Well, either that, or he's just unaware because she doesn't want to argue with his conservative ass because it'd be pointless...
with the way the world is today, so intolerant and hateful, it is dangerous
Quite so. It's just awful. Sometimes I think...
I wonder if he knows how crazy liberal his wife is getting
Uh, wait. Did you mean to say...
Last week she was on the gay bandwagon
Hugs, your stock is dropping fast here.
Why he married a lapsed Catholic, I'll never know!!
You know what? Forget I brought it up.
If they don't discuss politics at home, then their relationship is off to a great start. It only leads to two possible outcomes: Either the people wind up in a shouting match where they list off every stereotype or misconception about the other's views... or, worse, they agree with each other and start acting out some of those same stereotypes.
It's not a pretty picture, no matter how it ends.
Your daughter-in-law sounds fairly sane and ordinary. Hopefully she will, in time, turn your son away from the dark side, i.e. Rapture Retards.
Your son doesn't know how to log onto Facebook? Is he an illiterate? No wonder he's "saved", then. :-P
"People can post things as fast as they think them without filtering and with the way the world is today, so intolerant and hateful, it is dangerous."
I actually agree with this part, because I've said some stupid things on FB that I really wish I could take back.
Also, it took way longer for me to figure out DIL stood for daughter-in-law than I'd care to admit.
,,"he always says she doesn't keep up with things......."
Translation: She's smart and informed enough not to listen to or believe the crap they make up on Fox News, so he thinks she doesn't know what's really going on.
YOu say Facebook is a tool of Satan and yet you use it. Poor HugsFromJesus, as you get surely get thrown to hell.
"I have a Facebook account only to be able to see photos of my grandson"
As if that's something to be proud of. You think you're the only one who does? I have a Pixiv account, but only to have access to the pics there. Your point?
"I have never posted on my FB account at all, as I don't like Facebook, I think it is the Devil's playground."
Then what the fuck are you doing there in the first place you dumb cunt? Ever hear of Imageshack? Also, tl;dr...
"she was high fiving Jon Stewart and saying "great job Jon"...blah blah!! Last week she was on the gay bandwagon and about how rotten the small minded people are that don't want gays together and for them to back off the gays and we are all bigots."
Sounds like a nice girl. If I didn't already have a girlfriend, I'd be asking for her e-mail address.
"Why he married a lapsed Catholic, I'll never know!!"
You really want to know the answer to that question? A clue for free: You're a member of Ruptured Retards. And him being a 'Conservative'? I think he's just been pretending, so's not to 'offend' you.
Nazani14: I think the conceit here is that the daughter-in-law might still have traces of Catholic "heresy", despite abjuring her loyalty to the papacy. HugsFromJesus, meanwhile, was never "tainted" with endemic-to-Catholicism precepts in the first place. Keep in mind that to such ones, Catholicism WAS NOT the original iteration of Christianity. Protestantism (often particularly Baptism) is supposed to be a restoration to the (alleged) original formation. Think of the situation as protest against theological innovation.
TL;DR: My daughter has a mind of her own and has rejected the hive-mind! OHNOEZ!
BTW, there are no "lapsed" Catholics... they're recovering Catholics!
I don't like Facebook, I think it is the Devil's playground. I know it can be used as a witnessing tool, but i think it does more harm than good. Anyway, here's how I used Facebook as a witnessing device:
I don't have a Facebook account as Facebook is of Satan. So, in Jesus name get thee from the Facebook of HugsFromJesus, I command thee. (Note: this next bit may seem disrespectful, but it is part of the procedure) Ha! Ha! Ha! You stupid cretin Hugs. I know you don't mean to be, but you're as funny as hell. Maybe even as funny as heaven.
Yay!!!!!!!!!!!! Way to go!!!!!!!! THREE MILLION CHEERS!!!!!!!!!!! YIPPEE!!!!!!!!!!!!! O dear, I've run out of those funny little yellow things. However will I be able to express myself now? !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GOD BLESS AMERICA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
