Comments on: A Beachy Fairy Tale Continued: The Long Awaited Sequel to the Goldilocks Tale http://www.beachycomplex.com/2008/08/a-beachy-fairy-tale-continued-the-long-awaited-sequel-to-the-goldilocks-tale.html Thu, 26 Aug 2010 01:07:06 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Chris http://www.beachycomplex.com/2008/08/a-beachy-fairy-tale-continued-the-long-awaited-sequel-to-the-goldilocks-tale.html/comment-page-1#comment-27657 Chris Mon, 10 Aug 2009 18:26:52 +0000 http://www.beachycomplex.com/?p=307#comment-27657 It's not funny. It is sad. And the reason it's not funny, and it is sad is that so few, Beachy, BMA, Conservative Mennonite, Nationwide, (Not Insurance, think Rod & Staff) Eastern, Amish, etc... refuse to acknowledge that it MIGHT be PARTIALLY true.

Sun, 09 Aug 2009 12:30:09 +0000 http://www.beachycomplex.com/?p=307#comment-27608 Why is this so funny instead of sad? Are we just making a joke of something that can't be changed? The only way the church can grow is by having babies or if Chonas & Effie move in from somewhere else. Is this what the scriptures say? Or is this, "Bible is our road map" stuff just a cliche'? Can't we pharisees ever read and think for ourselves? I believe we have made the Bible say what we want it to say too long. Why is this so funny instead of sad?

Unfortunately true, even in some (most) BMA circles I'm sorry to say! Hmmm, I laughed my head off reading this. Unfortunately true, even in some (most) BMA circles I’m sorry to say!

As the Beachy girl panteth after the latest fashions, so panteth my soul after a (new) psalm of thee, O Mr. HBB, HBB, I don’t know if someone finally did you in with a hammer, (my sympathies if they did) but if you are still alive and kicking, you need to start posting again.

She made a comment about something (I don't remember what it was anymore) that would not be questioned if youth who grew up there did it, but as a newbie, she better not do it. I don't think it really bothered her, but her remark always stayed with me. And, HBB, I'm proud that you are so open to the thought of cutting split ends. Now if only the "ministry team" at Forest Amish Mennonite Church could have their eyes and hearts opened to the things of which you speak and the world would be greatly improved. ;) I worked with a girl who left the horse-and-buggy Mennonites and was joining a conservative mennonite church.
