    You're just jealous because they never invited you to pay them millions to join the next astral plane with their Ascendent Master, Tom "Watch Me Run" Cruise.

    Apparently, Internet service on the Planet Xenu is pretty crappy.

    Yeah, there is no response from the non-functioning host, at all. No communication. I believe that since the owner suffered a stroke, things fell into disarray.
    I've let it go. Surely no one here needs a heads-up. But...

    I just tried to get on, just out of curiosity, and the site seems to be working.

    One of the most recent threads is someone saying "I break witchcraft on everyone in god name and jesus name" (sic). Glad to know that's sorted out then. With them breaking witchcraft and the kooks at Bethel "church" declaring that racism is over (in a performance not entirely unlike Gandalf facing the Balrog) we can look forward to happiness going forward. Now if only they could do the same for the coronavirus.

    Yeah, my third grade teacher wanted to pull that Gandalf/Balrog thing on me, too...

    The boys and girls at Bethel would be fodder for the Babylon Bee, but it's real, not make believe...

    The Bee has had a number of articles poking fun at Bethel. It's not like it's difficult to do. One of their articles talked of how the janitor was really sick of cleaning up gold dust.

    Joel Osteen seems to be a preferred target though. As far as a site like the Bee is concerned people like Bill Johnson and Joel Osteen might as well paint targets on their backs.

    Dani You're probably fine.

    I don't care to be reinstated anywhere there's narcissistic leadership that relishes in the manipulating, gaslighting, bullying, and smearing of other human beings in the name of "God" or "Bible". That's abusive and evil.
    The Insanity House of Personality Cult will forever be etched in my memory as the place my old pastor was lured to with false promises, and I still fear for his wife as she's still in the clutches of those people. He passed away a few years into "serving" (being exploited) there from a motorcycle crash. Narcs love to exploit empaths, for sure, and he was that, in spades.
    Sorry I haven't been around, my (now) ex-husband turned out to be a covert narc who turned on a dime into some monster I didn't recognize (after 18 years together ... squee), and I spent an entire year clawing my way back from the abyss of suicide and starting my entire life over at the young age of 52. I now have a self-earned master's degree in the Dark Triad of personality disorders, and I'm convinced that the powers-that-be over at the Forum-That-Shall-Not-Be-Named are card-carrying Dark Triad members. I knew what they were doing at the time, I just didn't have a name for it then. I'm never going back to that place. Narcs love to use decent, good human beings as storefronts to present themselves as good and decent themselves ... while engaging in their dark machinations just ever-so-slightly under the radar, pushing their agenda, bit by gradual bit. I know what IHOP is about. I believe the stories of its survivors. Covert narc abuse is one of those things you look crazy trying to explain as a victim, because it's designed to not be detected, but once you see it, once you understand it, you can't unsee it and you're forever inoculated against it. The only thing I'm thankful about, the one good thing that came out of all that nonsense we all went through together, was meeting some genuinely good, kind and decent human beings such as y'all.
    I've more to say about all that but that's another thread for another time. Ha.

    Howdy again, Dani. Sounds like you found the past paved with bovine excrement and came through it smelling like, um, well, you know.


    Being human sucks. Being a redeemed human, much better.

    It isn't paranoia if it's true...

    We ain't perfect, but we is His.

    Well hey Dani, good to see you here again.

    Some who talk of the Dark Triad say it should be a Dark Tetrad, adding sadism to the mix. Put those four together and things really get nasty. The silly fringes of the charismatic "church" certainly present many opportunities to exploit others, especially if you get them hooked on the "maybe you just don't have enough faith.... yet.... follow our program a bit longer and your faith will improve" kind of line.

    As some might say, it stinks like what comes from the south end of a north bound cow.

    Sorry to hear of all the troubles, Dani. I'm glad you're weathering things okay.

    Dani You're probably fine.

    I have him as a contact on my phone as Bulls*** ... because that's all he manages to generate. :rolleyes:
    I'm certainly not perfect, but to sell yourself as a believer and use that to exploit people you claim to "love" ... WHO does that?
    I cannot with that nonsense any more. I've developed a zero-tolerance policy for all of it.
     
  13. Dani

    Dani You're probably fine.

    Yea I agree with the Dark Tetrad ... just because they're good at hiding their sadistic tendencies, doesn't mean they don't have them. I think they develop the nondescript stare, to mask the glee they feel from the power surge when they're able to break another person down.
    It's truly sick. I cannot fathom it.
    Scripture calls them "wolves in sheep's clothing". I call them "devils in people suits". Same difference.

    Welcome back, Dani. You're free to rant, convey your experience, reflect on it, etc. etc. etc. But as 'he' is not here to provide a counter-perspective (not that any such thread would be desirable), let's hold off any further personal comments.
