Re: Going to Vegas in December!

Get your tickets right away. If you want a desert experience, you can definitely get one - NEAR Las Vegas. It would be a good idea to search online for guide companies, for that. You want to be WELL away from the lights of the city, to truly see the dark night sky and see a real sunrise and sunset....

Re: Spies?

Some kinds of misbehavior though, are just common in ANY small and closely knit group. I have heard of congregations where the elders run amuck and preachers are basically revolving doors. Trust me, that is NOT unique to CoC congregations! It is a feature, if you can call it that, of a disfunctiona...

Re: Going to Vegas in December!

Whoring is actually not legal in Clarke County, Nevada. (where Las Vegas is). Also locals call it 'Las Vegas'. (not 'Vegas'). Sometimes other Nevadans call it 'Lost Wages' which is unkind, but hey. You can have a very good time for very little money. Just walk down the Strip and admire the outdoor ...

No, I've never experienced (or even heard of personally) anything like that.
Really? I've only ever been in one congregation. Thought more of them did that sort of thing :o

Spies?

Last topic and I'll cool it for today. Did your old place have spies? No, I don't mean nosey people, those are everywhere. I mean literal spies. When the facebook thing started, I had some rumors spread about me, which weren't entirely untrue, however...I didn't have one single person from church on...

Public shaming

OTHER THAN the obvious letter reading, kicking people out, literal spying then spreading ugly rumors, and shunning, what else has gone on in your old place to shame people? One among many fucked up experiences I had as far as other types of public shaming goes like so: Wednesday night was bible stud...

Good memories?

What are yours? I'd say we all have at least one. Mine all involve my grandmother. I'm her namesake and she took the place of my mother. I take more after that woman than anyone in my family. We look identical, too. One Sunday morning, during the sermon, someone started snoring (or farting, I'm not ...

Re: Going to Vegas in December!

Oh, fun!! We get to sin vicariously!! OK, I haven't committed many "sins of the flesh" in the past few years, so I'll have to ponder this. I think you've covered lasciviousness , concupiscence, and gambling, right? So, those, of course. Oh, is your significant other going with, or are you...

Re: Going to Vegas in December!

How many sins can I commit? Give me some ideas, help me out. There's the obvious gambling and whoring, but what else? :lol: Lots of good shows to see, some with the talent wearing a costume and some without a costume. :lol: Gambling, entertainment, and sex pretty much sums up why people go to Vegas...
