Reply #7: That's the best church around?

[Lydia Leftcoast]

Sounds like the type of fundies who tell kids that "having lustful thoughts" is something they can and should avoid (which goes a long way toward explaining why so many fundies are so obsessed with sex.)

Where do you live that that's the best church around?

What denomination is it?

If it's "non-denominational" or a "community church," that's often a code word for "fundamentalist," or at least "conservative evangelical."

I'd suggest studying the available denominations in your area and picking one that is a recognized "brand name." The community churches and non-denominational churches are prone to cult-like behavior, since there is no one exercising "quality control" from the top.
