[I don't want to be a Christian anymore.]

:lol::lol::lol::lol:

 

 

On a more serious note:

 

 

 

Can I ask why Pagans don't deserve a capital letter? Do you know what Paganism is?

 

I believe Joanne was being sarcastic. :) She's a fair-minded lady who would find this sort of thing rude.

[Amish---are they changing a great deal?]

Are you saying that their church services are conducted in a language that the church-goers do not speak? What would be the point?

 

This is one of the important reasons a friend of mine left her Amish church; she couldn't understand the sermons. Now, that church district preaches in P.A. Dutch.

One of the best things I ever did as a young person was embrace Christ.

The best thing I ever did as an adult was to leave Christ.

 

I thought of Anne Rice when I read your post :) I see that you have linked to an article.

 

I wish you much joy and freedom, Joanne.

ETA: Ah, on another reading I see how our views differ, but I still wish you freedom in your decision to still serve your Jesus divorced from Christianity. :)

[Anyone who has ever switched religions or anyone who would like to share theirs.]

I'll try to pm you soon. :)

 

I went from non-religious childhood > to religious upbringing by friends' families > to born again experience in teens > missionary and Evangelical Christian for years > very happy paganish atheist.

 

There is joy in finding your own path. And you'll know your path by the sense of contentment you find there.

New, but here!

[What is CNED?]

You choose the classes. There is a French language arts class at each level, just like we teach English language arts at US schools. The French language arts class at the lowest levels include handwriting, spelling, reading/phonics, etc.

Ooh, interesting! Thank you, I'll look into that.

[What is CNED?]

That does help, Yvonne.

Now, does it actually teach the language. I'm bilingual in French, but my children are not. Would this merely be used to teach target subjects (maths, science, history, etc.) in French, or would it be used for actually teaching the French language?

Thanks again!

[What is CNED?]

Hi, all.

 

I'm pretty new to this board, but am excited about having such a wonderful resource here at my fingertips.

Can anyone tell me about the language courses related to CNED? I've been Googling around but can't make heads or tales of it.

Can US residents use it? What is it?

 

Thanks so!

[I need a good book to read - for me]

Lonesome Dove is wonderful. It's the only western to have ever won a Pulitzer. Even if you don't like western, just think "Pulitzer" and you'll be glad you did.
