And a hearty amen to you Brother Sam. In the Caribbean country where I grew up there was a saying that, in the local Creole dialect, goes: "wheh fish co fah ribba battam ah tell oo seh halligetah gah belly-ache, beliebahm."
In plain English it would say: When a fish comes from the river bottom and tells you that the alligator has a belly-ache, believe him. It is very easy to to disparrage those who are finally standing up for truth, and speaking out against the terrible wrongs they have seen being done in Christ's name, by saying that they are just a few disgruntled former employees. No one who has walked in their shoes is saying such a thing. Only people who haven't eaten from the tree of knowledge of good and evil, that we have had to partake of, will ever entertain such fanciful characterizations. |

QUOTE(beartrap @ May 1 2006, 07:59 PM) [snapback]128694[/snapback] Indeed it is. In a society such as that, how many people can be accorded complete immunity to having availed themselves of prostitutes on a regular basis while married and engaged in the furtherance of laws and principles that would utterly disparage such illicit indulgances? How many people could engage in sexual activities with their producers of product, in late night trystes with designers of church decor, in sexual play with friends that produces surprise results, and in availing ones'self of the illicit favours of a co-workers, without falling into disrepute and experiencing the same painful reactions produced by the backlash resulting from allegations gratuitously handed down against those who have fallen into disfavour? What an incredible dillema is hereby placed squarely in the laps of those who would rather view their idols through rose-coloured glasses. Are we still talking about 3abn? |

QUOTE(calvin @ May 1 2006, 09:18 PM) [snapback]128698[/snapback] Are we still talking about 3abn? That would be yes, yes and yes! How many blood children does Danny have? Who are the mothers of those blood children? Who are the blood children? What are their names? How old are they? Where are they? How many step children does Danny have? Who are the mothers of those step children? Who are the step children? What are their names? How old are they? Where are they? -------------------- The greatest want of the world is the want of men-- men who will not be bought or sold, men who in their inmost souls are true and honest, men who do not fear to call sin by its right name, men whose conscience is as true to duty as the needle to the pole, men who will stand for the right though the heavens fall. {Ed 57.3}
But such a character is not the result of accident; it is not due to special favors or endowments of Providence. A noble character is the result of self-discipline, of the subjection of the lower to the higher nature--the surrender of self for the service of love to God and man. {Ed 57.4} |

I am alarmed if it is true that Danny was getting prostitutes with money donated by donors, and now is the father of many children. I watched that show Big Love on HBO about a Mormon "prophet" with many wives and children and now I've got to ask whether Danny is like that too. Just with different "wives" at different times.
Hold on, I gotta sit down. Is it really that bad? If it ain't stop me now! If it is, then this is a fine vat of fish to put on the fire. |

Last time I met Danny in person he assured me - in the presence of many people right outside the 3ABN church - that there is no danger any more. Since his operation he cannot have any more children. -------------------- "Any fact that needs to be disclosed should be put out now or as quickly as possible, because otherwise the bleeding will not end."

And then he resigned the presidency of the United States in disgrace. Sometimes an "assurance" by a leader is the last thing I want to hear.

More children? I don't think that is a genuine concern in this story (Disaster). There are bigger fish to fry, and those fish are not defined by the passing on of DNA, but by dollar signs and Shelton worship... the books, Danny, Donnie, Ronnie, Tommy, Kenny, Tammy, Melody, etc. The best singers, ball-players, speakers, thinkers, leaders, church-builders, construction designers... well, everything.

There are very few checks or balances until the person or persons do something criminal. This type of thing can go on indefinitely until someone has the courage to speak out... I seem to remember Koresh stating that all the women in the compound at Waco were his, and took more than one as a sexual partner. Jim Jones may have done the same thing.... It is not too surprising to me that this behavior occurred.... I suspect if Linda knew even half of what has been alleged, they would want her gagged.... -------------------- "you are as sick as your secrets...." -quote from Celebrity Rehab-

QUOTE(Hersheys99 @ Apr 27 2006, 05:38 PM) [snapback]128294[/snapback] I find it interesting that since you find it so wrong then why are you reading it? If I find something wrong or that I feel is wrong I surely wouldn't sit & read about it. That is my opinion. Not necessarily...if Higherground were adding details and information, that would be a reaso able conclusion.... Just as both sides "need" to be presented, it also has to be presented in dialog why this continues to be an issue for this Board as Linda has expressly asked that people move on....

Oh, people have moved on............to all of the other stuff going on behind the scenes. We have a few folks here who have had their own "unfortunate" encounters with Danny.
