This complaint is voiced by many all over Houghton's and other small Christian schools campuses. The only issue seems to be that the people who complain seem to either do nothing about it, or leave. I hope this doesn't sound as though I am condemning you or what you have written, for all I know you may be doing a lot to combat this type of thinking. However, if you are not - I encourage you to. And don't give up on Houghton, there are a lot of great people there. Challenge the atmosphere of stifling, overdone Christianity. Help people realize that real people swear, drink, smoke, have sex. And don't back down. It starts to work. For example ask some of the people who were at Houghton last year about a certain person who made it a point to swear five times from the chapel stage. Be encouraged.<BR/><BR/>RKRyan and Leahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03889517997683477655noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-769217905805380643.post-25733433270441897402007-12-07T16:35:00.000-05:002007-12-07T16:35:00.000-05:00Two things:1.

The sentence: <BR/><I>And that it is our responsibility to LOVE THEM!</I><BR/>is great, but would be even better if it were: And that it is OUR/YOUR responsibility to LOVE THEM/US!<BR/><BR/>That said, you have my wholehearted agreement, sympathy, understanding, etc... But you know all this. Like you read my mind or something..Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10688005353708538486noreply@blogger.com
