To those who find this forum...
Karly:
Firebird- instead of posting your version of what supposedly is 'supposed' to go on at Teen Challenge, read my reply to your topic at http://http://wwf.fornits.com/viewtopic.php?p=259850#259850.
OverLordd:
Address the issue of choice and trying to changes other peoples way of life through forceful relationships with God. do you think God wants corerced followers? How do you support your positions theologically? You have to defend your self against a bother in christ now, and quiet honestly, I dont think you met the requirements of christian theology to be a christian.
Firebird81:
Teen Challenge does not coerce people into Christianity.
OverLordd:
Your a lier. Just because you say it does not make it true. Support your self.

I want to take this opportunity to thank you for hosting this website and know you will find much success with it, much as I have in hosting the Seed discussion forum
Teen challenge holds some personal interest for me. Here is why.
When I was 12, in fifth grade, my father took me and my three sisters to a David Wilkerson 'meeting' in Pensacola florida where Mr. Wilkerson was laying on hands, etc. Shortly thereafter I got his book, "the cross and the switchblade" and read it at least twice. It fascinated me by opening up the world of drugs and NYC style gangsters.
If you know me, you know that several years later, at age 14, I entered the seed.
Several years after that, I was the victim of my father and the St Petersburg Florida police co-conspiring to have me brought back under my father's control so he could place me in another program. I ended up fighting and ultimately prevailing, but what I discovered later was that in all likelyhood I was bound for a teen challenge program somewhere near Jacsonville Florida. This was back in the mid 70s.
While I never made it there, I have a step sibling that did. Since I am not close to him, I have no idea what his experience there entailed..but my own research indicates that many Teen challenge locations use synanon based techniques to force christian religion into the minds of young people. This shit should be illegal.
So, again, I am sure you will find much success with this website. If you need any assistance, advice...anything...contact me.
