Not at all. Lots of people who are, by various standards, completely cuckoo, function perfectly well in society. And rightly so; variety is the spice of life and all that.

Ok..lets get one thing straight here shall we... Why do you think that is? .....why is it in place of a charge is a suggested donation. You see,if donational..no tax! And because the offerings are of the religious nature...this means no VAT Interestingly enough even in churches with huge shops etc, they do not declare monies made.. Well they have to....still have to pay rates,heating and god knows what. That is a few, the majority just ask for the cost of petrol! Full fee? There is not anywhere stated in any shape or form a suggested amount that should be paid to a medium leading a divine service!
Sorry had to stop quoting at this point as damn too funny..spiritualism and godly in the same sentence...thats like putting Christianity and godlike in the same text.lmao ;D
Godly is mans perception,what is laid down by the religions as to what they deem is godly. Sadly many do not act what would be terned in a godly fashion. What is Godly anyway?Apart from description stated by the hierarchy of these religions.....What do we on this board deem as godly, to act in a godly fashion... What we here would deem to be godly, spiritual etc, not one individual from any darn religion or belief structure can say categorically there actions are always godly. Even if compared to what that individuals deems themselves godly is....

You mean...we are the same Oh matey.....though I sadly have to agree with you with some idiots I know and have met. To be honest the majority know and openly admit even...that we screw up just the same as everyone else..But of course, we know there is a reason for us doingthat, and its one of lifes lessons..blah blah blah Indeed, you certainly need to believeto be a deent human being During a service once at a church as an opener to my philosophy.. "If I was the Big G...and there were two people walking up to my gates who had just passed over. One was a complete Atheist,the other was a believer. Which one I wonder would I let in,and who would I turn away to go back down and live there life again? The Atheist all their life had run me down,told people not to believe in me etc etc but, had always done the right thing because of compassion etc that came from their heart. The other,all their life had believed in me,always attended sunday services, always gave to charity and helped others...because of course if they didnt they believed they would rot in hell and get the wrath of me.. Who would I choose to let into my heavenly realm.... There is no choice...The believer would be sent swiftly back down and the Atheist welcomed with open arms. Why?.....Because whatever your defination of being truly spiritual,that is judged by your actions..not by your belief!" Twas interesting how many of those spiritualists were squirming in there seats

Grey..Grey..Grey Of course I was including sceptics. That's why I said "people", not just believers. Just as believers are prone to being out to lunch, so plenty of the sceptic population are too! Though obviously for different reasons.

See why are people so defensive? It happens - mediums charge and not only do they get paid they get a free sandwich and cake too at the end of the service whilst everyone else gets a soggy custard cream! You can rosy it all up under the name of 'central heating costs' the churches charge, the mediums charge and so on. As for Godly... I understand in what context the writer meant. Re-read... it may make sense..lol So Kendra your a spiritualist?

You can rosy it all up under the name of 'central heating costs' the churches charge, the mediums charge and so on. People are not defensive,which people by the way? Sceptics often say that mediums "charge" at a church service,they don't,some will take out of pockets expenses,i would have to simply because as a carer i don't have the luxury of spare cash for fuel,many take nothing. Not that i have ever or wish to work a church platform but if gives you an example. If you know different then name the church,date,medium and if you where there. In short facts. As to costs,again if you know of a church that receives free,or even reduced costs for heating,lighting,care of the grounds,upkeep of the building,insurance including public insurance not just building then let me know. In fact please do tell which church you were involved in that gave you access to all the facts and figures. Or are you running on assumptions,rumour and innuendo??

No why should I? So your closed shop ethos is going to come into play again is it? I haven't spoken anything of Haunted Homes - you made the decision on behalf of everyone on this forum not to discuss it, why bring it up again? No one knows what we know about that lot at Haunted Homes and that bothers the crap out of you and it is clear to see! If you have nothing constructive to say leave it alone like I am on here. As for my site... Not interested. I come on here for me - not about my website. So...Spiritualism. LR - no innuendos take it or leave it or put it in the bracket of 'In nic's opinion' if that helps you. I take note that you left a spiritualist church due to politics?

Just wondered if you had some inside info. I didn't leave any church,i left a development group due to human politics,i felt one of the male members was a bigoted,sexist twat. I any other situation i would have punched him out. Not that is exclusive to a group or church. There is a lot of it about.

Somebody must love you baby and gave you a karma point or points People can donate points to you and you can earn points from a special contribution to the site,an article for example,or win them in little comps. All a bit of fun. The other matter is at Jon's discretion.
