Say what you will about Don Imus (and the criticism is indeed deserved), but he also wrote one of the funniest novels I have ever read.

Suet624 He used to be a funny guy. 5y

As someone who went to an IFB school for my entire life, including 2 different colleges, this was very hard for me to read at times and brought up so many repressed memories from my college days. Thankfully, I never suffered the awful abuse like the author, but I agree there are definite branches of the IFB that are a cult. Some parts just flowed in the writing, others were like reading a boring term paper. Still, I admire her for telling her ⬇️

JenlovesJT47 Story and it is definitely worth reading. The title can be offputting to Christians but I recommend ignoring that and reading the book if you‘re interested. 4⭐️ 5y
Megabooks Thanks. It sounds really interesting. 5y
JenlovesJT47 @Megabooks it is! Unfortunately they didn‘t have it at any of my libraries so I broke down and bought it on kindle for $8.99 5y
JanuarieTimewalker13 My mind spins regarding religion. I had been a practicing Catholic (for about 4 years), yet I still believed in reincarnation. I think Jesus is groovy, so is Mary. It‘s just that it‘s so patriarchal, I want to barf. And the big three are like that. So I live my life in peace, do as many good deeds as possible, and believe that God is within me. We ARE made of star stuff. I do have an Angels habit that will not go away. I do believe in Angels. Lol 5y
JanuarieTimewalker13 Angels have never been human, I love something about that🦚 5y

This blows my mind. Until recently, and I‘m all too many cases still today, the Baptist Church supported slavery (when it was still legal in the US) and racism, but that is never acknowledged, it‘s never been repented of, at least half the time it still exists. Yet they want to claim to be the moral majority. The thing that confuses me the most is African American Baptists. How can they even bring themselves to participate in that BS?!
