Barry, in your response to my Las Vegas post, you mentioned that a Baptist church you used to go to required you to install some kind of "accountability" software on your computer that spied on your surfing and reported it to another church member. Was this a requirement of all singles in that church? This is big brotherism at it's worst. I would certainly never go to a church that had rules like that (besides, I am so computer illiterate that I don't know how to install anything on a computer!). It sounds like the pastor of that church could turn out to be another Jim Jones in the making (any youngsters reading this who don't know who Jim Jones was, he was a preacher turned fanatic who convinced his folloowers to move to a commune in Guyana. They ended up killing themselves in a mass suicide at the order of the madman preacher). I did a little online research and discovered that a few Pentecostal Churches have the accountability group thing too. These churches are playing into the hand of those who would create a dictatorial Orwellian Police State. Not all or even most Southern Baptist churches are liek this. We certainly don;t have anything like that at my church. Don't let one wierd church turn you off of religion. We are not all Orwellian mind control freaks. I gotta go now. I will be autologged off at this library in less than one minute.
