IT wasn't pain for no reason, like being sick. al_ffn says, Just click on the register button. maud_moody sings "If only I were a man..." from MUCH ADO mss4a says, huh catorman says, It is horrible looking at older relatives and knowing that you are probably going to be similar to them. sylph_in_the_sea says, okay, thanks saitaina says, My mommy said my birth was hell and that's why I'm an only child but I wanna hae 20 kdis pain or no mss4a says, not scary? € s_ings says, Rebecca, want to drive to Ottawa next weekend? selah_1977 says, So my female protagonists in fanfic and original fiction have horrible pregnancies.

Maybe one day if I find the right person ... catorman says, Eb - wait until you meet someone you want to have kids with - if it's just childbirth you are worried about, you could always have ceasarean.

I knew it would be that good the second time around sylph_in_the_sea says, wow @ eb ickleronniekinz says, Is going to be fishfarm manager. Babies and processing factories don't mix mss4a says, oh good question catorman says, Yes - adoption. My mother met her mother for the first time last year. My grandmother was an absolute bitch. When we asked her about my mother's father, she fabricated about 4 different stories and told us that she was going to keep us guessing. maud_moody says, Now THAT si an interesting question.

But I've done that riff before. jferer says, I'd like to postulate that if we ever found out about religion in the wizard world, it wouldn't be that different from us. Marriage either. The couples we've met seem fairly conventional. sylph_in_the_sea says, ahhhhh sylph_in_the_sea says, okay then catorman says, She moved to Australia just after the war, hooked up with a magician, and spent most of her years as his assistant doing all the sheep shearing festivals in New Zealand! slytherin_daughter eyebrows are obscured by bangs ickleronniekinz says, Ooh. looking forward to part 2 sylph_in_the_sea says, there's a part two? cool! mss4a says, i'm thinking he erin the other direction al_ffn says, Part 3 is quite spicy too. mss4a says, sigh quill_49 says, I think that having children in the Wizarding world is just like having children in the Muggle world. saitaina is away (is the slut of Slytherin, what do YOU think she's doing?) maud_moody says, What, Snape being permissive? mss4a says, thinking he would err maud_moody says, LOL! mss4a says, yeah sylph_in_the_sea says, I cna't wait until they're kicked out mss4a says, like al_ffn says, Part 4, for that bit maud_moody says, Maybe to compensate for all the nastiness he had to do in class. selah_1977 says, Jim--now that I've actually been here in England, I agree. Lily and James may have even had a "normal" wedding. mss4a says, how he is with draco maud_moody says, Yeah, I can see that. sylph_in_the_sea says, you don't know how happy I am that harry got kicked out for being bad...lol! mss4a says, jferer says, Extraordinary self-awareness doesn't seem to be in the wizard world. We've seen enough evidence of that. maud_moody says, Nah, that's because Draco is Lucius Malfoy's son. € s_ings says, Rebecca - are you busy next weekend? mss4a says, sigh al_ffn says, Lucius used his influence to kick Harry out maud_moody says, Sheryll: Not up for a trip to Ottawa, alas. mss4a says, not meta-snape again! ickleronniekinz says, poor Harry.

That would have been interesting. maud_moody says, I don't know how one would go about handling that issue, though. I'm struggling with it myself. al_ffn says, I kind of have in ToT mss4a says, yeah, maybe i will in proserpine mss4a says, well see maud_moody says, It was hard enough in my DOCTOR WHO fic. jferer says, "The Babel fish, having removed all the barriers to human understanding, has caused more and bloodier wars than anything." sylph_in_the_sea says, hmm...I'm no religion, so if you do, could you make it so non-religious people wouldn't be lost? mss4a says, hehe al_ffn says, And there's relig imagery by the bucket load in Syzygy mss4a says, *still needs to read that* Your buddy johnwalton_crazyivan has gone off pager catlady_de_los_angeles says, there is religion in some of my fics -- Cedric's mother finds some comfort in her Christain faith, een tho' I am not a Christiawn mss4a says, sure selah_1977 says, Religion will be incorporated into TiP's sequel. England is so very different than the US in that regard. cnj_87 leaves catorman says, Have sent Mickey to bed. Now have wine, Chocolate and peace! maud_moody says, That's for sure. mss4a says, oh cool catlady jferer says, How? owlfriend_of_hedwig enters selah_1977 says, I had no idea that British schoolkids are subjected to proselytizing. catorman says, In what way Eb - less extreme? sylph_in_the_sea says, Al: haven't caught on it, then :( jferer says, I'll bet Hogwarts has chaplains, etc. saitaina says, Hello Simon saitaina is back. davewitley is away (Auto-Away) maud_moody says, They are? al_ffn says, caught on what? slytherin_daughter gulps selah_1977 says, I was actually afraid when I sat in schools and attended assembly. catorman says, Are they?

Hymns and prayers are normal - but won't just be Christian - should be trans-religious (did I just make up that word?) € RUCharmed2 says, Hey girl! s_ings leaves dai_evans says, (more exciting things to do) jferer says, Not Slytherin.

Your buddy sjbranford has gone off pager maud_moody says, Right next to our house is a big, huge, gorgeous new Catholic school... and next to it is the cruddy old secular high school. Very odd. selah_1977 says, Al--it was just... strange. al_ffn says, You don't even have RE, over there, as I understand it? sylph_in_the_sea says, In a way I wish I was religious because it's nice to find comfort when really bad things happen mss4a says, i think witchcraft is a science, so maud_moody says, Yes, religion in HP.

Tell me where to send 'em! saitaina is away (is the slut of Slytherin, what do YOU think she's doing?) selah_1977 says, So I had to rethink the pre-Hogwarts educational experiences re: Hermione, Harry, Justin, and some of the others who may have gone to state schools. mss4a says, see science as their religion Your buddy skaprincess27 is in chat skaprincess27 enters cnj_87 enters € RUCharmed2 says, hehe okay I'll be here al_ffn says, Hi Sue. selah_1977 says, Jim, tremendous! jferer says, Hi, Sue! lildancer89 says, Hey, SUe ickleronniekinz says, Hiya Sue selah_1977 says, I'll send you my address, but I am not home right now... skaprincess27 says, hi catorman says, I think that witchcraft is more than science - it is intuitive, it is artistic and creative, it can be religious - it is very spiritual. maud_moody says, Well... metaphorically they do. Not too many would really see it *literally* that way. selah_1977 says, Hey, Sue! quill_49 says, Don't they believe in...erm...our Father. sylph_in_the_sea says, wel...maybe something about how certain spells work against each other? jferer says, Give me some kind of address after you get home. cnj_87 says, Hi, Colin. mss4a says, quill: just in sesh os'ncorporate spirituality mss4a says, right selah_1977 says, I think that these wizards and witches are all different religions. mss4a says, dang this is impossible quill_49 says, Yeah. davewitley says, formal religion in schools has very little impact on the kids selah_1977 says, But I think that most, like JKR, are secular. saitaina is back. saitaina says, Okay, potty break over *jumps on the chat couch* quill_49 says, But they have Christmans. mss4a says, *gets frustred* maud_moody says, You sounded like you were drunk, Melanie. catlady_de_los_angeles says, Presumably they can ADD SOME of this and TAKE away some of that from a spell -- new spells get invented -- Committee on Experiemntal Charms al_ffn says, I gave them a sort of Christian influenced wiccan type thing in ToT mss4a says, lol maud_moody says, jus' in sesh' os'n... *giggles* al_ffn says, I also made a point of the group prayer at Sirius' trial. mss4a says, DANG IT saitaina says, We're not on about religeon are we? *hides behind Al* jferer says, Yes, eb, **just like everybody else**. davewitley says, but some schools have CUs, which can be quite lively maud_moody hugs Melanie comfortingly mss4a says, sigh selah_1977 says, LOL! mss4a says, it's my connection catorman says, And whoever wrote the chef/cook analogy re: Snape and potion brewing - spot on. mss4a says, thanks rebecca skaprincess27 says, Does being able to practice magic really have all that much bearing on religion? It doesn't seem to be something taught. jferer says, ..that's the answer for a lot of stuff in the wizard world. Just like everybody else. catorman says, CUs? Christian Union? davewitley says, yes selah_1977 says, Jim--exactly. maud_moody says, Yes, it's an inborn ability. That makes it different. mss4a says, yes maud_moody says, It helps to type 105 wpm in chat, I've noticed. catlady_de_los_angeles says, Potterverse witchcraft is not a religon skaprincess27 says, It seems like it would be like any other population cross-section-- a mix of all sorts. maud_moody says, Right. al_ffn says, I don't think JK's version of magic has any kind of bearing on witchcraft. jferer says, I don't think it does, Sue. davewitley says, could wizards believe in miracles mss4a says, *amazed that she waid something coherent* mss4a says, *said quill_49 says, Does anyone else think that the Wizarding world is real?... jferer says, Some wizard people are religious, some aren't. selah_1977 says, Parvati and Padma may be Hindi (or Muslim, if they're Pakistani)... Lee's parents could be Rastafarian. saitaina doodles on Robyn's arm as she ignores chat because their all talking about icky things again al_ffn says, They would say the miracles were caused by them. mss4a says, right catlady sylph_in_the_sea says, not really catlady_de_los_angeles says, espcially since they keep beringing in peoplel from the Muggle world in eery generation maud_moody says, I think there are Jewish witches and Muslim wizards and Buddhist warlocks and what-have-you, but their ability to do magic is in no way connected to their beliefs about their deity. catorman says, Why not - they just wouldn't think it is a miracle, but entirely plausible. skaprincess27 says, Preicisely. jferer says, Precisely. maud_moody says, ...or lack of deity, in the latter case. mss4a says, yes rj selah_1977 says, Rebecca--Barb feels the same, she dealt with it in her fic. maud_moody says, So their religions woudl be just like ours, basically. € RUCharmed2 says, Now your drawing on me? Oh thanks girl saitaina grins jferer says, Pretty much, Maude. mss4a says, yes, but mss4a says, i think al_ffn says, Jesus ... water to wine ... must've been a wizard, doing that.

Home Improvement!? selah_1977 says, I can see Sirius as a dad, very easily. al_ffn says, Who'd be Wilson? maud_moody loves Wilson mss4a says, lol skaprincess27 says, Slightly less boorish, but still with that get-in-trouble-with-the-mom sort of way. saitaina says, Remus is Wilson selah_1977 says, He was SO fatherly in GoF (part of his appeal) mss4a says, mm, remus? mss4a says, lol mss4a says, gmta al_ffn says, I could be Al maud_moody says, No, no, Dumbledore is Wilson. catorman says, I think he's great - especially as Harry can confide in him. mss4a says, mrs figg ickleronniekinz says, was al the beardy guy? maud_moody is now imagining Ron played by Jonathan Whatsisface catorman says, How many people of Harry's age feel they can confide in their surrogate father figure? skaprincess27 says, So Dumbledore is related to the Beach Boys? selah_1977 says, Exactly, Catherine! And he risks his own life to watch out for Harry... al_ffn says, So, it's come to this - fantasy Home Improvement casting. maud_moody says, LOL! mss4a says, lol maud_moody says, Taylor Thomas!

Sheesh. selah_1977 says, Remember, we don't know for sure that Crabbe and Goyle can talk... ;-) mss4a says, sylph_in_the_sea says, what is an ezboard? maud_moody says, They must, because Ron and Harry talked when impersonating them in CoS. ickleronniekinz says, Can I possibly solicit a little fanfic advice? maud_moody says, And Draco didn't react as though it were odd. selah_1977 says, Draco is the mouthpiece, Grabbe and Coyle are the Enforcers. catlady_de_los_angeles says, i havent seeb neil in chat today al_ffn says, Solicit away maud_moody says, Ergo, Crabbe & Goyle talk to Draco. catlady_de_los_angeles says, but i ewnt missing for a short time catorman says, Oh, it makes me laugh so much when I hear Stephen Fry doing Ron and Harry as Crabbe and Goyle. It is superb! maud_moody says, Even if JKR doesn't see fit to give them any lines in Harry's hearing. maud_moody says, But then, Harry, misses a lot... maud_moody says, ...such as how utterly cool Snape is. catlady_de_los_angeles says, is he, on hid byusiness trip to amsterdam? mss4a says, i think they also talked wnryaccosted them at the shack selah_1977 says, Ah.

You think so? mss4a says, hehe catorman says, He is just very enigmatic. al_ffn says, OK, so he is maud_moody says, In some ways. In other ways he's not very observant. ickleronniekinz says, Righty-ho. Would it be a bad thing to stay with Draco for the first 3 chapters ofa fic,and then move on to Harry. al_ffn says, I prefer my slightly dim-witted Harry, though selah_1977 says, LOL, Al! ickleronniekinz says, *of a al_ffn says, That'd be fine, ron maud_moody says, I like Harry a lot, but I don't think he's that exceptional for his age. skaprincess27 says, Harry, to me, doesn't seem typically 14 at all. maud_moody says, Other than his life experiences, that is. ickleronniekinz says, darn spacebar sylph_in_the_sea says, he doesn't seem to age at all mss4a says, i always laugh in GoF when he isproud of great intellect sylph_in_the_sea says, except he noticed Cho mss4a says, with the sphinx al_ffn says, I just like my ToT version of him ... a tad slow on the uptake, sometimes catorman says, If you say Harry is dimwitted, it makes him out to be a modern day Sir Cadogan - a jock hero. maud_moody says, My son is now rolling in the bun. Sigh. mss4a says, my harry is kinda dumb mss4a says, LOL catlady_de_los_angeles says, hannah, I don[t think its a problem, except selah_1977 says, I just find canon!Harry interesting, and I think JKR does too. After all, she chose to tell the story from his perspective. mss4a says, mortal danger one minute al_ffn says, My Draco is certainly cleverer than him. mss4a says, bun-rolling the next al_ffn says, Canon Harry is certainly very interesting, agreed skaprincess27 says, For some reason, Harry doesn't seem to be realistically 14. But I have no quibble with that. catorman says, I think he is too sensitive for that - and he is very intuitive about a lot of things. selah_1977 says, Elaborate, dear Sue... mss4a says, read Ender's Game catlady_de_los_angeles says, eaderse who hae Harry and readers who hate Draco, the latter won;t strat the story and get to the Harry part skaprincess27 says, Possibly because he's not a dolt. catorman says, I don't think he would be realistically 14 - he's too scarred, introverted, had to face too much. mss4a says, re: precocious kids catlady_de_los_angeles says, and the former will be disappointed when they get to chapter 00 did you say 4? catorman says, Very sensitive. selah_1977 says, What is realistically 14? selah_1977 says, What *is* normal? cnj_87 says, Ask me! skaprincess27 says, Ron seems to be getting closer to reality, Draco's just too articulate and icy. cnj_87 says, mss4a says, ii wasn't realizstic at 14 al_ffn says, Ron is very definitely 14 skaprincess27 says, Yes, ask Colin! ^_^ skaprincess27 says, Neither was I, but that's semantics. selah_1977 says, Colin--are you Ron, then? cnj_87 says, NO! cnj_87 says, ^_^ mss4a says, no no selah_1977 says, Well, everyone seems to think that Ron is the epitome of the 14 year old boy. cnj_87 says, Then again, I'm not realistic either. mss4a says, hehe, i meant, i wasn't typical either ickleronniekinz says, that's what i'm worried about, Rita. But I want to put in an ominous beginning a la GoF, and it runs to more than one chapter. Sigh. catorman says, Well, that's a good point. As far as canon goes, I would say Harry is old for his age, Ron is too young, Dean and Seamus, and the twins are what I would consider normal. skaprincess27 says, Well, he IS. *^_^* selah_1977 says, Exactly, Catherine. maud_moody says, Oh, for a dustbuster... catorman says, But there isn't really any normality anyway, so it's a nonsense. cnj_87 says, I don't think fart jokes or crude sexual humor is funny. I like classical music and 60s-70s stuff. Not normal compared to my peers. skaprincess27 says, Perhaps in England, they're average... mss4a says, selah_1977 says, Poor Rebecca!Mom! maud_moody says, Now my son is hitting the keyboard with a rubber duck. al_ffn says, Harry has a very adult perspective, already maud_moody sighs heavily skaprincess27 says, See, this is why Colin' sylph_in_the_sea says, lol@Colin mss4a says, lol skaprincess27 says, s not average. ^_^ skaprincess27 says, *kicks keyboard* maud_moody says, I was a weird teenager too. selah_1977 says, Well, so the BOORS get the distinction of being average? mss4a says, yeah, me too skaprincess27 says, I *am * a weird teenager. ^_^ selah_1977 says, I do not get it. maud_moody says, Now my son is hitting the BUN with the DUCK. cnj_87 says, Yep. mss4a says, i didn't drink skaprincess27 says, Yes, due to their sheer numbers. cnj_87 says, No one gets it. catorman says, BOORS? maud_moody smacks self in head mss4a says, lol al_ffn says, I think crude sexual humour is funny (witness Snitch) and I haven't been 14 for 5 years now. ickleronniekinz says, Is also a weird teenager cnj_87 says, It doesn't make any sense at all, and yet the system has held up for YEARS. maud_moody says, I didn't either. catlady_de_los_angeles says, many MEN in 20s 3-0s 40s think fsart jokes and crude sesxual homor is funny mss4a says, yay weird teens! skaprincess27 says, I also think crude sexual humor is funny, and I'm a 16 year old girl... cnj_87 says, Depends how crude. al_ffn says, Although I thought American Pie was rubbish cnj_87 says, I like some...but not over the top. catorman says, Maybe you're developing at the same rate as Ron? (Only joking) quill_49 says, You're 19, Al...hm. I thought you to be older. cnj_87 says, That's what I'm saying. selah_1977 says, I think it's funny too... and I've taught 14 years old for some years... sylph_in_the_sea says, too bad crude sexual humour is materialising at the age of 11 nowadays skaprincess27 says, AP did truly suck. sylph_in_the_sea says, or earlier ickleronniekinz says, I love crude sexual humour. The cruder the better. cnj_87 says, American Pie stuff...not funny. maud_moody says, Nope. al_ffn says, Road Trip was good fun mss4a says, oh man, that was awful cnj_87 says, Road Trip was okay. cnj_87 says, But I didn't like it much. maud_moody says, Blackadder is funny. catorman says, Avoided both. mss4a says, good man catorman says, Blackadder is sublime. catlady_de_los_angeles says, and you have to pretend its funny, too, when they're your boss at work al_ffn says, I've seen Blackadder so many times now that it isn't funny anymore selah_1977 says, Maybe Ron will make the Quidditch team next book. cnj_87 says, Is Blackadder British? catorman says, Particularly 2 and 3. cnj_87 says, ~_^ mss4a says, what is blackadder *ducks* al_ffn says, Colin?? skaprincess27 says, Best crude movie I've seen was probably "South Park: Bigger, Longer, and Uncut" because under the crude humor, there's some biting commentary. ^_^ maud_moody says, Yes. Only the British can be crude AND funny, IMO. catorman says, Yes of course it is! al_ffn says, What planet? catlady_de_los_angeles says, Colin, wht system>? cnj_87 says, I was just going to ask that. cnj_87 says, The system that the BOORS are considered average. maud_moody says, Rowan Atkinson historical/political/satirical comedy. al_ffn says, We had the best South Park episode here the other week selah_1977 says, Of the English speakers, I think the Canadians I've met in RL are the funniest! mss4a says, ah maud_moody says, Really, Eb? al_ffn says, The one with the take off of the OJ Simpson car chase catorman says, Some of my favourites - written by Ben Elton and Richard Curtis (who also wrote 4 Weddings and a Funeral) skaprincess27 says, *lol* That's a good one. catorman says, Stephen Fry! Hugh Laurie! maud_moody says, Well, we DID import a lot of comics to the US... al_ffn says, Phil Collins hill cnj_87 says, Al--I must be suffering from Ignorant American Syndrome, as I've never heard of Blackadder. skaprincess27 says, The whole series is terribly crude, but has a *lot* of high-minded satire under the far jokes maud_moody says, But some of them we just couldn't stand ourselves. cnj_87 says, What is it? selah_1977 says, Really, Rebecca. I sat next to a Canadian at the symphony yesterday and he had me giggling throughout... mss4a says, rj, no service tonight? cnj_87 says, Yes, South Park is funny. al_ffn says, My brother's geography teacher is Phil Collins, or rather, a good lookalike lildancer89 enters alyeskakc is away (Auto-Away) catorman leaves maud_moody says, There's a service, but because Nicholas was sick and because he hasn't slept all day, I kept him home. So he is sitting on the floor looking at books. cnj_87 says, So...er...what is Blackadder? mss4a says, cool selah_1977 says, All the Canadians I've met here have this great sense of sarcasm that is just out of this world. catlady_de_los_angeles says, a TV comedy al_ffn says, Possibly the definitive 80s Britcom catlady_de_los_angeles says, in several series mss4a says, must walk dog cnj_87 says, Oh, okay. selah_1977 says, I went to evening service... like 5 hours ago. al_ffn says, Except maybe for the Young Ones cnj_87 says, I thought it was something like that. mss4a says, hehe catlady_de_los_angeles says, in each series, the actor is Mr Blackadder in a different period of history maud_moody says, "Congratulations, Prime Minister Horton, on getting a double-double." *giggles hysterically* mss4a says, east coast skaprincess27 says, That's what I thought, but again, I suffer from IAS. cnj_87 says, Hmm. Sounds funny. mss4a says, hmm, cnj_87 says, IAS? ~_^ catlady_de_los_angeles says, you can buy the videos from PBS catalog selah_1977 says, I LOVE chatting in this time zone! I get to have a full day, then chat all night! mss4a says, don't know what that is maud_moody says, Ebony -- bet it wasn't a drive-in service. skaprincess27 says, Ignorant American Syndrome! ^_^ cnj_87 says, LOL, Eb selah_1977 says, LOL! al_ffn says, Come and live here, Eb :-D cnj_87 says, Oh, right! catorman enters alyeskakc is away (be right back) cnj_87 says, Yay, I've coined a syndrome.

Another is the utter hypocrisy of many of its followers. ilovbrian_99 enters mss4a says, at least you are thinking about it skaprincess Your buddy lildancer89 is on pager catorman says, I think that the premise of Christianity is inherently good - I just hate the way it has been abused for centuries. selah_1977 says, Yes, isn't that strange, Pippin? Just like most sci-fi writers are atheists and agnostics. mss4a says, right. but that doesn't make it untrue skaprincess27 says, That's what gets me, Eb. I see the principles of the Catholic religion, and I see that most of its followers *that I know* are hypocrites. maud_moody says, Although Lewis wrote both. ilovbrian_99 says, I"m Catholic and I'm not a hypocrite.. maud_moody says, Most people are hypocrites, period. pippin_999 says, Because people can't live up to their ideals doesn't mean... skaprincess27 says, I said, "that I know." selah_1977 says, Lewis was *awesome*--I'm placing my Hermione in Magdalen for med school in his honor. ilovbrian_99 says, I sin and make mistakes..but that does not make me a hypocrite.. pippin_999 says, that ideals aren't worth having selah_1977 says, I love his writings. catorman says, in the UK, there is definitely the hypocritical going to church as it is the thing to do brigade. pippin_999 says, Lewis makes me a little crazy maud_moody says, True everywhere. pippin_999 says, He is such a misogynist skaprincess27 says, I know a great many people that are truly horrible human beings who talk down to me because I don't attend church. selah_1977 says, Hmm... how so, Pippin! catorman says, Lewis I have a love/hate relationship with - very frustrating at times. mss4a says, LOL catorman says, But Alice is great - very feisty. skaprincess27 says, And that's what turns me off from organized religion. ilovbrian_99 says, People shouldn't condemn anyone for thier believes though.. pippin_999 says, The things he said about women in That Hideous Strength -- ugh! Your buddy lildancer89 is on pager catorman says, He was Victorian. maud_moody says, I don't really like THS. pippin_999 says, And "battles are ugly when women fight" from Narnia... ilovbrian_99 says, Christianity is about love not damnation.. mss4a says, well you finthose people everywhere maud_moody says, But I loved Perelandra. pippin_999 says, like they aren't ugly anyway selah_1977 says, Sue--I don't like that sort of attitude. I am so very glad that I basically ignored most Christians I knew growing up when I converted. catlady_de_los_angeles says, mELANIE /Brian, you may not be a hypocrite, but there are a lot of people who are, Catholics who go on and on about being anti-abortion because of their reilgion, but vote in favor of capital punishment, for example ilovbrian_99 says, Oh are you talking about CS Lewis... mss4a says, oh sure selah_1977 says, Hmm, Brian... it's actually about both. Can't have one without the other. pippin_999 says, Oh I like Perelandra, I even like Hideous...but it makes me crazy ilovbrian_99 says, They are hypocrites... catorman says, Oh - CS Lewis got the wrong end of the stick, thought you were on Lewis Carroll mss4a says, but when you commit to a faith ilovbrian_99 says, Yes you can.. skaprincess27 says, I don't know what to think. I believe in God, but I don't believe in organized religion, particularly Catholicism due to my bad experiences with it. mss4a says, you're not following the people mss4a says, you're following God € gypsycaine says, You sound like a UU'er Sue. selah_1977 says, Exactly! skaprincess27 says, Universalist Unitarian? € gypsycaine says, yep selah_1977 says, to mss4a... I forgot your real name, sorry. maud_moody says, True Christianity is about Christ, not about people who call themselves Christians. ilovbrian_99 says, I think a lot of people have issues with Catholics..but I assure you we aren't all like that.. mss4a says, Rebecca, that scene is great mss4a says, melanie _ selah_1977 says, Exactly, Rebecca. mss4a says, thanks eb selah_1977 says, Oh, hey, Mel! ilovbrian_99 says, Hey... skaprincess27 says, I went to Sunday School for nine years, and honestly, I didn't believe a word. selah_1977 says, I was wondering which you were... € gypsycaine says, I'm wiccan.... maud_moody says, The question is, what do you think of Christ Himself?

These same medieval popes were the ones that drank, had sex, lived in excess... I don't know how I could follow a religion with rules based on hypocrisy in the first place, not to condemn those that do believe in it, it's just not something I could do. *sweatdrop* mss4a says, bye ron selah_1977 says, Hmm... I had the opposite experience. Didn't have much church forced down my throat growing up, so when I compared religions, then converted to Christianity, I was happy. But in the 8 years since, I've always had Christians tell me that I am not Christian for one reason or the other. mss4a says, ickleronniekinz leaves mss4a says, right with ya Eb mss4a says, except the last part € gypsycaine says, Eb, I wish all the Christians I deal with were like you. pippin_999 says, I was raised Jewish, couldn't see much point in it for a while, then came back to it selah_1977 says, "You read Harry Potter... so you aren't saved." "You wrote thus-and-so in your column/essay/story, so you aren't saved." mss4a says, hehe, cool Mel mss4a says, *rolls eyes* mss4a says, i know catlady_de_los_angeles says, Not being a Christian, I would be wise not to get involved in any conversatino about whether Catholilcism is hierarchical ilovbrian_99 says, I codemn all the actions of those corrupt years.. Your buddy lildancer89 is on pager pippin_999 says, Jews are always getting told we aren't saved maud_moody says, The Bible was not written by the popes, however. catorman says, I grew up with a grandmother who ran the local Sunday school etc. My father taught theology before becoming an aetheist himself. Had it rammed down my throat and rebelled. skaprincess27 says, My parents sent me to Sunday School because they wanted me to have some religion-- they're both agnostic-- but they told me to keep in in perspective. I did. ilovbrian_99 says, but when you have a religion that is as old as Catholicism.. ilovbrian_99 says, it's going to have it's bad times.. mss4a says, yes rebecca is right selah_1977 says, "You drink, so you aren't saved." You wear makeup and laugh too loud, so you aren't saved." "You associate with __fill-in-the-blank__ so you aren't saved." maud_moody says, Ebony: No wonder my review came across badly. :/ ilovbrian_99 says, Alcohol bothers me... skaprincess27 says, I was told at the age of eight that I was going to hell and there was no way around it. So, hey, according to that, what I do doesn't matter... catorman says, I have close friends who are Born Agains. They do not try to convert me - but Veda gets very upset, because she says that she worries all the time that I will never experience the afterlife at the side of God. € gypsycaine says, alcohol is a natural substance. catorman says, She prays and worries about it. mss4a says, skaprincess ... that is not true maud_moody says, Well, that's a sincere friend, then. selah_1977 says, Yeah, Rebecca... but we've already talked about it, so it's cool. selah_1977 says, Believe me, I've heard worse. ilovbrian_99 says, just because Jesus's first miracle was about Alcohol..chirstians shouldn't condemn it.. maud_moody says, Yes, and you know now (I hope) that wasn't at all what I was saying. pippin_999 says, Some evangelicals are okay with me, cause they say, if God wants me in heaven.... catlady_de_los_angeles says, Sue,that is Calvinist predestination, not Catholicism mss4a says, christians are not universalists € gypsycaine says, that's what my mom used to tell me. selah_1977 says, Right! *schnoogles Rebecca* catorman says, She is. She and her husband don't talk about it very often with us, but they are actually very concerned. It is sincere. maud_moody doesn't have a problem with alcohol, only drunkenness skaprincess27 says, See, I do believe in God. I just don't believe that using birth control and eating meat on Fridays is going to get me sent to hell. pippin_999 says, he will find a way to get me there, which is what I believe too maud_moody says, It isn't, Sue. € gypsycaine says, if Christ had wanted her household not to use wine, why did he make it? selah_1977 says, Catherine--I'd love to meet Veda! maud_moody says, That isn't in the Bible. Your buddy lildancer89 is on pager al_ffn is away (Auto-Away) skaprincess27 says, Rita-- this is what my Catholic Sunday School teacher told me, because I was a bad girl. *shrug* selah_1977 says, Exactly, Rebecca! mss4a says, um actually *puts on calvinist hat* € gypsycaine says, that's ok. maud_moody doesn't give a fig for religion maud_moody says, Don't do it, Melanie... € gypsycaine says, A great many Universalists aren't Christians. catorman says, I'm having lunch with her on Tuesday - I'll ask if she can pop in on Saturday. skaprincess27 says, I was always taught that everything was going to get me sent to hell. I decided that I'd come to my own conclusions. pippin_999 says, A lot of UUs are Jews in interfaith marriages selah_1977 says, There is SO much that isn't in the Bible that "Christians" say is there that it is quite scary. lil_rose85 enters maud_moody says, Amen, sister! selah_1977 says, LOL! € gypsycaine says, I can agree with that! pippin_999 says, True, Ebony catorman leaves lil_rose85 leaves maud_moody says, The only solution is to read the Bible yourself. Because so many people on both sides talk complete nonsense about it. € gypsycaine says, and there are numerous translations of the Bible. ilovbrian_99 says, Yes I agree with that ebony.. catlady_de_los_angeles says, presumably some christians are universalists, beliveing that christ'd goal was to teach/save all people maud_moody says, Oops, sorry, Melanie, did I sit on you? *guilt* mss4a says, no one can tell you "you're going to hell, there's nothing you can do about it selah_1977 says, My first 4 years of being a Christian were filled with lots of fear... I felt as if I was living in the middle of Edwards' "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God". maud_moody says, That's true. skaprincess27 says, It might just be teenage rebelliousness, but I think I'd rather go on believe in God in my own disorganized way... Your buddy george_weasleys_girlfriend is on pager € gypsycaine says, that's how I felt Sue from age 22 to 25. ilovbrian_99 says, That's fine...it's faith not religion that God sees really.. catorman enters mss4a says, no, my stupid connection € gypsycaine says, Then I discovered my belief system fit into Starhawk's book very well! maud_moody says, Yes (re translations), but they don't differ THAT significantly.

I was ill from stress... and I remember crying all night, saying "God, I'm trying to do everything right... how come I can't feel you? Why do you seem so far away?" THAT'S what fundamentalism did to me. selah_1977 says, Hey, Jana! george_weasleys_girlfriend says, Yo! maud_moody says, Legalism, anyway. george_weasleys_girlfriend says, *mooes in greeting* € gypsycaine says, that sounds like me perfectly, Eb! selah_1977 says, Right, Rebecca. € gypsycaine says, growing up in the SBC. mss4a says, Eb, that's not fundamentalism, imo mss4a says, yeah, rj maud_moody says, In a way the problem was that it wasn't fundamental (in the sense of being based on the Bible) enough. selah_1977 says, Hmm... right. mss4a says, right on maud_moody says, It was fundamentally other people's rules. catorman says, I tell you what though, Eb - Veda refuses, categorically, to read HP. I cannot persuade her. skaprincess27 says, I can't go on being Catholic-- I don't believe in their teachings, but for me to stay and just linger would be disrespectful to those that actually do believe. george_weasleys_girlfriend says, Umm... I believe in Janaism. mss4a says, i was there too eb selah_1977 says, Catherine--about 90% of my friends will not either. ilovbrian_99 says, what don't you believe in Catholicism, just curious.. mss4a says, skaprincess, is your name sue? € gypsycaine says, that's a good principle Sue. catlady_de_los_angeles The TXT list of chatter aliases is to be found at: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HPforGrownupsChatScripts/files/%20Chatter%27s%20List catlady_de_los_angeles This chat will be saved and posted on theYahoo Group : catlady_de_los_angeles http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HPforGrownupsChatScripts/ € gypsycaine says, it shows that you respect them. maud_moody says, I wasn't, but it took a long while for me to grasp that my own "goodness" or "badness' had nothing to do with how much God loved me. catlady_de_los_angeles The HTML list of chatter aliases is to be found at: catlady_de_los_angeles http://groups.yahoo.com/group/HPforGrownupsChatScripts/files/%20chatterlist.html selah_1977 says, My best friend has read and LOVES the books... but is also a charismatic minister and is afraid to let anyone but me know she's read them. skaprincess27 says, Birth control. The views on abortion. All sorts of things, I don't agree with. But for me to linger would be disrespectful to those who do. selah_1977 says, That's why Shani will not get involved in fandom. skaprincess27 says, Yes, I'm Sue, aka Alicia/Sue. catlady_de_los_angeles says, skaprincess is alicia-sue spinnet catorman says, I find it strange. So little investment on their part, and they will get so much out of it! mss4a says, hehe, i'm lazy mss4a says, oh gosh rj selah_1977 says, Rebecca--EXACTLY! maud_moody says, One of my best friends is an elder at a conservative Christian Bible church and he and his wife LOVE the books -- they're reading my stories, too. ilovbrian_99 says, Okay mss4a says, that was such an eye opener for me mss4a says, Thanks catlady selah_1977 says, Wow, Rebecca... how can they reconcile that with the fact that so many think HP is sin? skaprincess27 thinks that religious officials would excommunicate her if they read her writing maud_moody says, They understand fantasy and SF, that's why. They love Tolkien and Lewis too... mss4a says, oh most of my xian friends love HP ilovbrian_99 says, Actually it's a lot of really extreme catholics that Have a problem with HP..and I guess some fundalmentalists too.. € gypsycaine says, Rita and I share similarities in our belief system, so I'll also not get into Bible-and etc. ilovbrian_99 says, but then there are Catholics who are fundalmentalist..so... maud_moody says, I also introduced a friend of mine who teaches at a Christian school to HP... she was a bit worried at first because of all she'd heard, but when she actually read them she thought they were terrific. catorman says, I still don't understand why people think that it is sinful. Do they find it a threat? € gypsycaine says, only if you had wrote the closet-tale. Your buddy lildancer89 is on pager mss4a says, no george_weasleys_girlfriend says, *waits patiently for religion discussion to cease* mss4a says, they are confused maud_moody says, Now she gets annoyed (like I do) with all the ignorant people who haven't read the books, don't understand fantasy, and think it's all about Satan-worship. maud_moody says, Gah! That drives me SO nuts. skaprincess27 says, The thing is-- and I think I did this subconsciously-- every character I write has a religion that actually figures prominently into how I write them. maud_moody says, Because you're thinking about it, Sue, that's why. selah_1977 says, Sue--my collegiate pastor read my original novel MS (one of them). I thought I'd get kicked out of the church. He told me that he loved my writing and that "my pen was anointed". Mind you, I wrote about a famous Christian singer living a double life... € gypsycaine says, to the SBC, I am headed straight for hell, and all my practices are wrong. catlady_de_los_angeles says, !

According to Hugh, the kids hated him, but he and his wife still have dinner with "Phil" from time to time. maud_moody says, He puts forth the bigoted idea that anyone who believes in God is ignorant, afraid of their emotions, hates sex, is cringing in fear of a vengeful hateful God... yadda yadda. pippin_999 says, what was terrible about Tolkien? maud_moody says, It's so childish. maud_moody says, Ebony: That is very interesting, btw. al_ffn says, I didn't pick up on that cnj_87 says, Tolkien's childish? catorman says, I don't know - in world of own I think. maud_moody says, No, Pullman's attitude toward Christianity is childish. cnj_87 says, Oh. maud_moody says, The things he said about Lewis were so fatuous and stupid I wanted to scream. blackburn_lancashire says, But what does Pullman say about HP? cnj_87 says, LOL, he seems eccentric to me. george_weasleys_girlfriend says, *hides and sniffles under Colin's fucking cloak* cnj_87 says, *patpat* pippin_999 says, tries not to have an attitude toward Christianity maud_moody says, Nevertheless, Pullman is an extremely talented writer. catorman says, Public school in UK = very expensive, exclusive, private school (just in case anyone was suffering under a misapprehension) mss4a says, rj ... trying of pullman's characters mss4a says, sigh al_ffn says, He writes extremely well. al_ffn says, He's not very Rowling-esque mss4a says, trying to remember them, i mean catorman leaves maud_moody says, Yes, he does. Which is why it frustrates me so much that I can't enjoy his books. mss4a says, he doesn't like HP mss4a says, yes, rj! exactly blackburn_lancashire says, And many of Pullman's other books have nothing to do with Theology. maud_moody says, The Sally Lockhart books are just as bad in their own way. al_ffn says, In the way very inventive authors like Colfer are. blackburn_lancashire says, Why? pippin_999 says, I liked Golden Compass selah_1977 says, Catherine--so is it all right if I have Hermione attending the local primary there in North Oxford, or must I pack her off to private school? mss4a says, he doesn't like that harry is born a wizard maud_moody says, The attitude comes through in everything he writes -- I knew it was there before I ever got to HIS DARK MATERIALS. mss4a says, with a fate al_ffn says, I would pack her off to private school. Sorry mss4a says, even tho he does the same with lyra pippin_999 says, I just read Book of Night with Moon by Duane. That was good. maud_moody says, What was it Alan Jacobs said? "A sentimental genuflection before the idea of adolescent sexual awakening..."

Your buddy skaprincess27 has gone off pager al_ffn says, And it isn't owned by Murdoch catorman says, I don't want to get into this, but I am not happy about Israel - that 3 month old baby killed in Palestine last week. mss4a says, that would be cool maud_moody says, Religiously I still get to hang onto the Tanach anyway. skaprincess27 says, You mean there's something in this world that Rupie hasn't gotten his hands on, Al? selah_1977 says, I wanted to be Jewish as a kid, too, Rebecca...
