mommaduck Posted August 12, 2011 Author Share Posted August 12, 2011 A craptastic example of truth sprinkled with lies. What *truth*? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xuzi Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 What *truth*? That there's a church called the Catholic Church, and one called the Orthodox Church? I see it all the time with my own faith (LDS). People will put out information that's "All About the Mormons" that hardly resemble ANYthing I've ever seen or heard in my 29 years of Mormonism. But, hey, they got the name right! :glare: (sometimes. Often it's "Mormans") It's insidious, really. Take a word (or a name) and give it a meaning that is so far removed from it's original meaning, and be very convincing in presenting this new meaning to people who haven't had previous exposure to the old meaning, and you'll cause them to doubt the truth when they hear it. What person in search of a new church is going to want to look more in depth into a faith that they've heard from "everyone" as being something dangerous or cultish or hell-bound? Nevermind that everything they "know" about this faith is distorted truth or out-right lies. They won't want to go anywhere near something they've always been taught to see as being "dangerous". It's a scary power. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris in VA Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 The truth part, imo, was that there really are vampires--that is, people who drink blood. Thaaat's about it, really. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katilac Posted August 12, 2011 Share Posted August 12, 2011 "Can I be a Born Again vampire?" I was disappointed that this wasn't a cartoon featuring freakish little Susie, but that one line made it worth reading :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WishboneDawn Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 Huh?? Nevermind. Suffice it to say, I think the guy is a little wacko. Just tying together wacky threads in the conversation and not being so successful. Was at my parent's house for several days. Brain is fried!

bairnmama Posted August 13, 2011 Share Posted August 13, 2011 I wonder if he went to "The Church" in Dallas? When I was in college, this was a club where many people were into the vampire type life... and yes, they really drank blood. Some even had permanent alterations to their teeth to make them look the part. I never went, but my roommates did. They wore 60's & 70's style long sheer nightgowns along with some unique makeup.
