I believe Danny told about his "antics" when he was speaking on 3ABN and it was probably years ago if my memory serves correctly. I don't believe it has been discussed on BSDA.

QUOTE(princessdi @ Feb 9 2007, 07:14 PM) [snapback]176887[/snapback] Yeah, that is why he doesn't mention them to this day. He marries women with children, he doesn't seem to care about the children. My parents were foster parents and adoptive parents all while we were growing up and beyond. If you ask my Mom now how many children she has, she does not say two becuase she is only counting her biological children. Danny acts if if Melody has been the only child in his life. One more thing, if he was actually involved it he raising of Nathan, he would not have to wonder why Linda was ont he phone with the Dr. about her son. It is very telling that Danny never mentioned that is who Linda was on the phone with from the beginning. Speaks to his character as a man. I didn't even know there were any children at all, until others starte explaining who the Dr. was. Danny might be some things positive, as with us all, but big hearted with caring for someone else's children is not one of them. they got to be blood for him to even consider them. I'm quick to tell people that I have two sister and a brother.... Only one is blood - and she's a "half" sibling. The other sister and brother are a sibling set that were raised by my Mother in foster care for almost 10 years. They lived in our home and would have been adopted if their family hadn't stepped in and decided to "take them back" after several years..... My (foster) sister and brother call my Mother - "Mamma"....and call their own bio-Mother by her first name. Now. Merinate on dat. -------------------- *"Some folks use their ignorance like a umbrella. It covers everything, they perodically take it out from time to time, but it never is too far away from them."*

QUOTE(Observer @ Feb 8 2007, 11:50 AM) [snapback]176440[/snapback] 1: It is true that a typical Conference in the USA requires a congregation to have an increase in tithe of from $120,000 to $150,000 to have the Conference support adding an additional pastor to the staff. i.e. To have two pastors, the congregation would be required to have a tithe income of from $240 K to $300 K per year. It is also true that the salary paid to the pastor is much less than the amount required by the Conference to be the congregations annual income. The reason for this is to accommodate for the per-cent age of congregational tithe that is passed through the Conference to the Union, NAD, and General Conference. In other words, the Conference does not have the freedom to use the entire amount of congregational tithe income. So, if Bill Gates where to join a small church of some 50 members, how many pastors would be assigned to that church?

QUOTE(JustTana @ Feb 10 2007, 11:21 AM) [snapback]177052[/snapback] Just curious. I must have missed this one. Where is the 'antics' description by Danny? Actually, my sister and I had already come to the conclusion that Danny had not been any kind of 'father' to either Nathan or Alyssa some time ago. JT Why would you come to that conclusion? because of what you have read here? As stated earlier I have known the Shelton parents and some of the family for over 50 years. Kays children were small when they married and he loved them like his own. Nathan came by this summer and visited for a while. ****Edited for content**** |

QUOTE(lurker @ Feb 10 2007, 10:30 AM) [snapback]177037[/snapback] Some time ago Danny described the antics he perfomed in order to impress the judge while Linda's and Doug's custody of Nathan was being decided back when the boy was 15. After hearing what he described, I felt strongly that Danny's actions and attitudes were very likely part of the reason Linda lost custody and that the reason she lost her son was not just because of her religion but of the perception Danny gave the judge about Linda's and Danny's religion and of Danny as a stepfather. Might that have been a blessing in disguise? At least he may not have been subjected to his stepuncle. -------------------- WELCOME to BlackSDA from seraph|m, a BSDA Charter member.
