‘Mrs. Greene's statement about leaving the Church is as enlightening as it is saddening,’ commented Michael Hichborn, president of the Lepanto Institute.

Ellen warned her followers in no uncertain terms to

“TAKE OFF THEIR WIGS AT NIGHT!!!”

You’re seeing the consequences of not listening to her… I think it’s overheating!

If only one was in their evening cooling barrel, this kind of wouldn’t happen.

I shudder to think of the lascivious thoughts behind the scenes.

He doesn’t need to admit to it at all, the evidence is all over the thread.
