I am not talking about Ann and you know it, Elizabeth had been through enough but that matters not to the hateful.
The posts referred to the fact that Elizabeth was VICTIMIZED! resty. Those who look for hateful usually find it.
In the click you travel with one does not have to look!
Bigot
You really need to step away from the Kool-Aid stand.
LOL
FC, Ann’s parent was present dsuring the sessions. I think that precludes this being ‘brainwashing without consent’. And the many years of a successful marriage and great family are far more telling than the way it all began. Please, stop this denigrating of the Romney marriage and Ann in particular. Let it go, great one.
I must agree with Mr. Romney on this one. My primary concern with ANY candidate is from where do they get their core values, and for what causes they have fought in their political life before their bid for the presidency.
[I think that precludes this being brainwashing without consent. ]
Neither does it preclude ‘brainwashing WITH consent’. Say you had a 15 year old daughter who got a hankering to become a Scientologist. Would you think her competent, even with you present, to have an auditor come over for six sessions? Just so you could get her married off to the son of a presidential candidate?
More to the point though, has the marriage been a sterling success? Yes, I think you could say that and Ann is no shrinking violet in the Mittster shadow. She has five very fine sons to show for a successful household, too.
Enough with you and your group already. Your reputations precede all of you.
Thanks-
~”It would be interesting to read to what youre referring with this assertion.”~
I’m referring to His teaching of the people during His earthly ministry. His Church existed as soon as He organized it with His Apostles. His followers were what later became known as Christians as soon as the Law of Moses was fulfilled through the Atonement, but He converted them to the faith.
~”But since by your criteria you couldnt ask them questions about their religion, you will never know.”~
That’s not my criteria, as I’ve made quite clear on many occasions.
~”And truthfully, you probably still have a chance at figuring things out in the long run.”~
I’m glad you think so. I’m pleased to report that I’m getting a little closer every day.
Best regards!
~”Yeeks, What’s wrong with YOU? You were instructed to complete your mission and get married years ago!”~
Indeed; it’s an Achilles’ heel of the INTJ personality type. I’m still trying to figure all that out. The fundamental issue is that I find social ritual pointless, so I really don’t understand it.
I’ve got faith, though, and I’m getting better each day. It’ll all work out.
I appreciate your concern.
~”And by the way....that was THREE “I’s”....It’s all me, me, me..for you ain’t it Tant.”~
Yeah, I really liked how I put together that sentence. I think I did a terrific job, even if I do say so myself. I have a wonderful command of written English, and I’m able to communicate my thoughts effectively whenever I’m of a mind to do so. I appreciate it when I find my positive traits noticed.
Need I say more? I think not. I’ll be back!
Good catch! You’ve successfully put the concepts together. Yes, taunting with reason, respect, and patience is a delicate art, one whose mastery requires a great deal of practice and perseverance to acquire.
Of course I agree with the apostle Paul when he said in 1 Corinthians 7:8 Now to the unmarried and the widows I say: It is good for them to stay unmarried, as I am. 9 But if they cannot control themselves, they should marry, for it is better to marry than to burn with passion.
~”Why is disagreement always get turned into BIGOTRY by you folks?”~
It’s not. Problem is, you folks often seem to mistake bigotry for disagreement.
Fair enough. If I see FastCoyote bring up the same topic on another thread, I will use his statements on this thread against him there. Otherwise, I’ll leave it be.
Thanks for the guidance!
