Reply #7: Having used that one

[cfield]

on my fundie mother, I can tell you first hand they just excuse it away as "we all have bad days/make mistakes. That's what God's forgiveness is for."

And yet, me piercing my belly button at age 18, or getting my ears pierced for my 19th birthday as a gift from my fiance, or getting a tattoo years after I no longer lived in their house, these are all things that I still get lectured for at age 24. They still "pray that I'll come back to Christ." Because these are things that thier religious denomination (NOT their *religion*, just their *denomination*) believe are wrong because they're succombing to 'being world-ly' and not being 'set apart from the ways of the world.'

Fucking Fundies

Anything goes if it's by a repuke who receives messages from God.
