Terry, of course you can join my cult. But I will need access from time to time to your Baja compound to prove your allegiance. =)

Maybe sometime in the cold November Rain.

Every trip south when the boards are strapped on tight I always play this tune after we hit the dirt building up until we get to the beach:

From your lofty vantage point....


Mtgoat666 - it must be uplifting for your ego to denigrate those you may not agree with - certainly you are not in a cult of one with your views but it seems that you place yourself and your tenets on a level far superior to many of us.

If I played that song I would be at 100 mph when I hit the beach. I stopped listening to music like that on my dirt bike too. I must be easily influenced. Lol

It absolutely amazes me that groups like FLDS and many other Christian fundamentalist groups have made such major inroads in a country that has been historically Roman Catholic. Must be related to poverty.

My daughter who has a Masters in Business Admin and is the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) of a Corporation became a strong Evangelical Christian in her mid-30's. (she is now 56) She has never had any particular stress or poverty in her life.

My son who has his LLD (law degree) and was the single Legislative Attorney for the Fed. States of Micronesia, and then the Tribal Attorney for the Hoopa Tribe in N. CA (etc.) became an Evangelical Christian in his late '40's, (now 53) and had no real stress or poverty in his life ever.

Both these kids were not religious prior, and neither their mom or dad (me) were, or are, particularly religious..

I don't understand it, but I totally support their decisions because it made both much happier and giving to other's i.e.. it improved their lives.
