The blogosphere forced her to 'fess up. <br /><br />I have my suspicions as to who that blogger was, and whether I'm right or not, may God abundantly bless the hands that type the truth!shadowspringhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15172112981244682382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6879552692521649812.post-5421710169587461522010-11-06T01:07:30.277-04:002010-11-06T01:07:30.277-04:00That post of Hillary's about the poem was the ...That post of Hillary's about the poem was the most influential post in her entire blog, for me.

I ...I want to know about her family relationships! I want to hear from her step-daughters, her ex-husband, her siblings, cousins, parents. I think it probably sounds familiar to her because she knows she has likewise hurt her own family with her self-righteous,rigid role playing. <br /><br />Stacy McDonald is a hypocrite of great proportion, and she herself knows this in her heart. I am sure that certain of her family members will testify to that truth, that even within her own blood/step relations the system means more than the individual.<br /><br />I think she herself is unhappy, and that's the real reason Hillary's book resonates with her. I think that her protesting the truth, while no doubt it is to protect her financial interests, is also an effort to squash her own daily frustration and unhappiness.shadowspringhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15172112981244682382noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6879552692521649812.post-2299967873059078252010-11-05T12:21:34.254-04:002010-11-05T12:21:34.254-04:00I find it really hard to ready any of her drivel. ...I find it really hard to ready any of her drivel.

It is absolutely natural for a child to want approval from her parents. Do we not also want approval from our heavenly Father?

Rebuke??? for wanting approval from her parents for doing something sweet?? that's the kind of thinking that distances children from parents, and breaks my heart.Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01928518394072725503noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6879552692521649812.post-9900423404300738532010-11-05T10:27:00.116-04:002010-11-05T10:27:00.116-04:00As I commented the other day on Karen's site, ...As I commented the other day on Karen's site, publicizing things that are (as Stacy admits herself) "none of our business" is nothing if not an example of the behavior of <i>"busybodies and malicious gossips."</i> This is contrary to the Bible's specific teachings on what makes up "godly womanhood" in the passages all QFs dwell on (see 1 Timothy 5:13, Titus 2:3). <br /><br />If Stacy knows it's not her business, and she knows it's not our business, then for her to write about it in public shows that she is a model of ungodly womanhood by her own standard.

Any attempt by Stacy to convict her for not honoring her parents is nonsense.<br /><br />To readers unfamiliar with how Stacy's cult works...Anything less than outright <strong>worship</strong> of parents and parental authority is dishonorable. Very little in Stacy's cult has to do with Jesus Christ. Everything's tied up around human authority structures.Lewishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05596138376570543467noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6879552692521649812.post-90524305740346000412010-11-05T09:33:12.523-04:002010-11-05T09:33:12.523-04:00Another thing, Hillary DID share "the beauty ...Another thing, Hillary DID share "the beauty and value" of her family. She said many good things about how she was raised and how much she loves her parents and siblings. With the entire tone of her book she honored her family. But obviously it wasn't the "right" beauty that Stacy was looking for. It wasn't enough for her. Obviously that's not what Stacy was truly after. If it was, she would've found it in Hillary's book.Darcyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03702441292981376229noreply@blogger.com
