| Yes by all means I would. Even more after I saw his healing and lost complete fear. yes yes yes I would without a doubt. I would try to catch the ambulance on the way to make sure they did not spend one second there. even their school has to call me before they call any emergency response.

Proud,
Oh wow I did not know I controlled other people C.S sites.
There you go again. Nothing was said about you having anything to do with any other sites.

| Merriam Webster Dictionary http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/chit Chit = pert young woman Proud:"Actually I doubt it surprised anyone. Or even responded to such materialism. I don't claim to read minds as the last post says I just state my opinion on the situation. I have never seen such a feel sorry for yourself group of people. It is astonishing to me if my post come off wrong it is simply because my mind is blown. love does not sustain this group in my opinion self pity does. You feed on each others sin and sorrow. Your childhood is merely your excuse. I don't mean to be cold but get real buck up. What are most of you guys in your 40 or so. Goodness. Are you not adult enough to quit blaming C.S for your misery. I doubt that will ever happen because then you will only have yourself to blame. It is C.S fault your parents abused you...It is C.S fault you married losers... It is C.S fault you stayed in a religion you did not like for 30 years. Everyone of these sounds like personal decisions you made. Did the church tell all theses I hate my husband women who to Marry... I have never heard of arranged marriages in C.S so once again personal decision. You picked the wrong guy deal with it. I agree that some of the abuse stories are saddening but your going to let it control your life come on see you just made your own misery a reality. Thank God for C.S and it's message. Maybe you should look up the meaning of personal responsibility. " Many people here have had terrible experiences as Christian Science children. Self Pity????? To say these people come here to feed on other people's "sin and sorrow" and use their childhoods as on excuse? Or, "you picked the wrong guy deal with it"???? You married losers???? Oh dear! Where is your love and compassion Proud? Yes, indeed! I think these are hateful and cold hearted remarks to make on a forum where people come for help with their problems. I thought mindless buzzing was a rather nice way of referring to what I would call CS Speak that I believe hypnotizes people into dangerous behavior. My husband does it too. I BELIEVE its mindless, because it doesnt make any sense. My adult male children CRY to see their father suffer. I cry. You just point your finger and say "Its your fault you married a loser" ???? I love my husband. I dont hate you Proud, I dont even dislike you. You have had many, many nice things to say here and your love for your family is nice to see. You have had a rough go of it here because your beliefs are pro CS and not quite true CS. You have been very apologetic on many occasions and that is admirable. I wish you would just argue the religion part of it and not comment on people's experiences... like this quote of yours ...unless you have something compassionate to say. Square Peg

As noted by Anonymous September 30, 2009 @ 8:56:58 PM, many posters have been very disturbed by Proud's posts. I agree, however, they serve a purpose. I apologize to the other posters for approving any posts that caused you pain. In addition to my abhorrence of censorship, there are other contributing factors to the decisions to approve her posts that Linda and I have discussed.
It's clear that Proud has, at best, a naive understanding of Christian Science upon which she is relying for the care of her children. I've encouraged her to work to gain a legitimate understanding of Christian Science, if she chooses to remain in it. We are unlikely to convince her to leave Christian Science, if she is actually in it. Former Christian Scientists remember the blindness we had to Biblical truth.
It probably surprises few that I am a certified geek with a great curiosity. There is a perspective regarding Proud that may not be immediately obvious to someone who hasn't put together the various things she has revealed about herself. She appears to have serious issues on top of what she has directly shared that conflict with the practice of Christian Science.

| Funny how ex christians scientist seem to claim that they know so much yet could not pull it off. You know so much great and mighty mediator. funny. this site is really becoming a buzz kill. the one post I am extremly thankful for is elbee link to the govener. thx greatly apperciated. I really hope when you meet jesus you don't condemn him for knowing more than you like you have me. You will come to the understanding one day and it will be beautiful. Maybe not. perhaps you'll go out munching meds who knows. here this should be a good one to get everybody whining.lol. I would wish you luck but there is no such thing.

Proud,
Sigh. You know it all, just as I did, just as all the other train wrecks I've seen and experienced. It is obviously beyond me to penetrate either haze that surrounds you. Both are dangerous and mutually incompatible, as well as hypocritical. As an adult, you are free to take whatever risks you choose for yourself. You, however, have children that whether you can understand it or not are in danger, especially with your conflicting use of Christian Science and what Google apparently reveals about your other activities.
I'm disappointed that you have not had the benefit of legitimate currently practicing Christian Scientists responding to your posts. Perhaps they will choose to contact you privately. You have had the benefit of lots of counsel from those who've lived it and walked where you are now walking. If a COP were to identify himself to me, for the sake of your children and yourself I would consider sharing my concerns with him. Your situation should be addressed by those in your Christian Science community, but likely would not be.
The fact we have seen no activity from the Christian Science community perhaps reflects on the lack of compassion that we have discussed. People in your situation need the compassion of like-minded people not denial and rejection. Time after time in my years in Christian Science I saw good people from new members to Christian Science teachers shunned because they represented the embarrassing evidence of failed healings. You are apparently blessed by a different sort of Christian Science community, but be careful.
You are going to hate and deny what has been offered to you in love. Sometimes the greatest expressions of love are to share that which is hardest to accept, but needed the most.

Proud,
... i think this site is full of double standards ...
I've never claimed on this site to be anything but a sinner in need of forgiveness. I left behind the illusion of perfection when I resigned my Mother Church membership.
Interesting choice of words in your earlier post. According to the Urban Dictionary:
buzz kill
Something that spoils or ruins an otherwise enjoyable event, esp. when in relation to ruining a drunken or drug-induced high.
The legitimate study of Christian Science requires the abandonment of all material mood and mind altering substances. Mary Baker Eddy's use of morphine notwithstanding, Christian Scientists are expected to refrain from alcohol, tobacco, other noxious weeds, and controlled substances. Don't be fooled into believing you can do both.
The tobacco-user, eating or smoking poison for half a century, sometimes tells you that the weed preserves his health, but does this make it so? Does his assertion prove the use of tobacco to be a salubrious habit, and man to be the better for it? Such instances only prove the illusive physical effect of a false belief, confirming the Scriptural conclusion concerning a man, "As he thinketh in his heart, so is he." - Science & Health 383:21-28
The depraved appetite for alcoholic drinks, tobacco, tea, coffee, opium, is destroyed only by Mind's mastery of the body. This normal control is gained through divine strength and understanding. There is no enjoyment in getting drunk, in becoming a fool or an object of loathing; but there is a very sharp remembrance of it, a suffering inconceivably terrible to man's self-respect. Puffing the obnoxious fumes of tobacco, or chewing a leaf naturally attractive to no creature except a loathsome worm, is at least disgusting. - Science & Health 406:28 - 407:5
