I attended the little worship group that Chuck attends today, except Chuck was off camping and hiking with Mark McCray.  I am glad there are people who are thinking about how ritualized the church has become and are moving back to the roots.
 
My mother wanted to go to church in S. Tampa with Katie.  She didn’t seem to want me to come; but maybe it was because she thought it would be too far for me to drive.  I guess she’s wanting to do the grandmother thing and I have no desire to spend any time next to a baby.  Katie’s got another one on the way.  I used to really love family dinner together, but now there are so many babies that I don’t want to be there.
 
I’m glad Jamie doesn’t worry about my feelings the same way I worry about Mom’s.  I don’t believe the Bible.  I think it portrays God as petty and jealous and that’s not the God I know and commune with all the time.  My mother is so fearful I’ll die and go to Hell that I go to church so she can sleep at night.
 
Jamie decided about 20 years ago that she wasn’t going any more.  It scares her grandmother, but I’m proud of her for following her own heart.
 
Hi, I’m Carole Baskin and I’ve been writing my story since I was able to write, but when the media goes to share it, they only choose the parts that fit their idea of what will generate views.  If I'm going to share my story, it should be the whole story.  The titles are the dates things happened. If you have any interest in who I really am please start at the beginning of this playlist: http://savethecats.org/
 
I know there will be people who take things out of context and try to use them to validate their own misconception, but you have access to the whole story.  My hope is that others will recognize themselves in my words and have the strength to do what is right for themselves and our shared planet.
