Has Bu$h seemed more mentally-impaired than usual, recently?

I hate to say it, but I think almost all conversions are insincere. Very, very few, in my experience, believe down to their bones that the religion is true. Of course, I may be a bit jaundiced from my upbringing, but it is their actions that I watched.

Most of them are there for a group thing, there are some who pretend to ecstasy as they are singing for instance. Well, most people aren't that great of actors and I'd see the insincerity in their faces. For a while I tried to pretend, as I saw them doing, but then I just stopped.

Oh did you have to go to those things Damo? I've only seen them on tv, they look pretty ludicrous.

You have no idea. I learned a lot about people and religion at that time. I don't think they even realize.

Darla I was raised in a holy roller church. Pretty strange.
speaking in toungues dancing around, etc.
One thing I noticed is that the translations of the speaking in tounges changed from time to time. The strange chanting speech was the same but it translated differently
And Dancing was a sin
Unless of course you were in a religious fit.

thanks Darla, but that is past I have long since recovered.
It does give one a different perspective on religion though.
Holy rollerism is much like the states that many cultures work themselves up to in rituals. And all seem to think their altered states are unique to their religion/culture....

I agree with cypress but feel sorry for Bush. He looks like a moron to anyone other than the excersism attenting bible thumpers. So he asked for it.

those were pentacostals, weren't they? Wierd.

My Mom was kind of a free spirit, and was always checking out new religions - I got dragged from the quakers, to the catholics, to the unitarians, and even to the Sikhs, and buddist traditions. My Mom was kind of wierd that way

And this is what I was talking about. They work themselves into an altered state, this is what they replace their addiction with.
