I am worried about Gabe too. He has always seemed sensitive to me and he leaned on Garrison. Kody is so toxic, and if this costs him "his" show I worry he will take it out on others.

Lovely area but so expensive. If I had unlimited funds I would move to San Clemente. It's not just the price of the property, cost of living is high too. I am not much of a sun lover. I hated living in So Cal. The glaring sun, heat, the dry air, the winds kicking up dust, meh. I am much happier in the Pac NW :)

All I know about them is that Hubs said NO. NO. NO AND HELL NO. There were some nice properties I was interested in and he shut that right down.

This is really sad. He is one of the kids I thought had a real chance at a normal life. It appears it was suicide. I have said it before, polygamy DOES NOT WORK. It's a sick dynamic with so many ramifications for everyone involved. https://people.com/sister-wives-garrison-brown-dead-8604813?hid=65eb12c0d5b06cb731ef5c705039f8170e4e62ee&did=12184513-20240305&utm_campaign=ppl-breaki

And driving an hour each way to work IS green? I would love to know how many electric cars they are driving and using solar to do so. It sounds like just another "Vanity Farm" but with an organizer at the top. I wonder about the long term water situation.

They do it because they can. Just like every abusive relationship. Change the rules, have different sets of rules, treat people like crap, play fast and loose with the money, expose children to abusers (as long as it doesn't land THEM in legal trouble), Hell, even change the NAME and the core teachings. As long as the sheeple keep paying and obeying (screw the praying, it doesn't put money in

That is so sweet MiB. It makes me so happy to know that you and RJ are doing well. It's such a toxic culture and it poisons families too. Finding the freedom to discover your authentic self can certainly lead to healthier relationships in families and out. I always miss people that move on but it makes me happy too :) But you can always swing by to say hi!

Well, the relationship between them was complicated and never fully explained because they didn't tell you what HIS secret was. What had happened to his wife and daughter? Why his anger? Why didn't his anger bother her? Why was he so desperate to find his file? The girl was his only real lead - and she knew it. The few patients that the Dr. treated had to be high level because of his positi

FANTASTIC bit of film. Everything about it is top drawer. The cinematography, superb. Pamela Franklin was scary good. I don't know how I missed this for so many years. I saw it a week or so ago then taped it the next time it was on. Hubs loved it too. Don't cheat and read the plot in advance, just watch it. I liked this so much I am going to look for it on disc and I don't do that often,

Lilith, meaning "belonging to the night," comes from the Akkadian word lilîtu, the feminine form of a word meaning "demon" or "spirit." In Mesopotamian and Jewish mythology, Lilith was the first wife of Adam who was ultimately banished from the Garden of Eden for her disobedience. In rabbinic literature Lilith is variously depicted as the mother of Adam's demon

Agree. If you are going to claim "Yet statistically, it is more commonly committed by school teachers than the clergy." you need to provide the stats or it is nothing but your own hot air.

Yes, the fruit from the Tree of Knowledge. Then Adam was such a weak, worthless man he chomped right down too. Even though Eve existed to be submissive to him. She must have been much bigger and stronger and forced him. (eye roll) Gods forbid that he take any responsibility. And that same BS dynamic exists today. If a woman is raped, it must have been because of something SHE did. Maybe,

Well, since they disrespected "mormon" I think it is fair use.
Forum: Recovery Board

I think of all the "bad guys" Lilith got the worst rap. Adam annoyed God by bitching about her all the time so she got the boot and Eve got to be a doormat. In the end, even compliant Eve got crapped on.
