  since i'm only now getting back to you since christmas due to pc-related problems, i'm hoping you had a wonderful holiday.. given my profession and connections to the art and music world, i receive many invitations to concerts, plays and recitals.

  i received a ticket to a christmas concert that included many complex and superbly executed holiday-oriented musical pieces.

  the audience was invited to sing "o come all ye faithful.

  That is wonderful. We went to our friend's Christmas concert at school and I started crying because of a song that I always felt guilty for enjoying... but not now.

  You can have sooooo much fun.. you can control the outcome..... YOU ARE IN CONTROL, not them. REMEMBER they are a bunch of idiots thinkining they are anointed by holy spirit. (bullshit)

  So first do you wanna stay in or out? mess with them. Make them lose a day of work. Ask them to have it during the week at noon. Then show up. You dont have to be honest with them. It makes no difference. IT WONT MAKE A DIFFERENCE IF YOU ARE HONEST. soooo you can say whatever you want

  they have an accusation against you? deny deny deny deny and deny... even if they have pictures..... they have a witness? then tell them you were joking, you didnt mean it. you were forced, you were kidnapped, you were on medication, you were on drugs... see the point? you can come up with whatever story you want depending on what outtcome you want.

  YOu want out? you can extend the meeeting for hours even days. Be creative. Have fun with it at least!

  Those suckers.

  HAHAHAHAHA ty for that!

  And he already yelled at my father for allowing me to come to a family gathering, "forcing him and _______ to not be able to attend."

  They don't see how stupid it is to avoid an entire gathering because one person who is no longer in agreement with their religion will be there? That is ridiculous.

  I forgot to say that Cornelius was called by God before receiving Holy Spirit. In other words, being called was not the same as having the Spirit.
