I don't know what sinful things she's done, other than being a media
personality itself. And that's the only reason why I am skeptical of her
sincerity. I don't know what it's like to be a celebrity, but I sense that
they sometimes fake their values.

That particular family has good values. I forgive people who hurt me too, but
I do it for my own good because it's not healthy to hold grudges or to dwell
on the past too much.

 IJ> Charley has said in the past that Nikki isn't a good role model.  about

Charlie was only right 99.99% of the time. Nobody can be right all the time.

Good point. Having rules, keeping values, knowing right from wrong, are all
productive qualities.

 IJ> Some foul mouth rapper with a WAP wants to prioritize God in her life. 
 IJ> She wants to speak out against what the left is doing to current body
 IJ> politics.  She wants to speak out about global issues like the Massacre
 IJ> of Christians in Africa... 

I don't get it. What's a WAP? Around here it's a nickname for Italians (and
for suspected Italians.)

 IJ> As a Group, regardless of your religious position we need to welcome

I'm sure they're missing some opportunities when they do that. There are
better ways for them to make an argument, but they often choose baseless
bashing.

 IJ> I heard her say... She wants to put God in her life.  I heard her say
 IJ> she was sick of being silenced  and I heard her say she didn't like the
 IJ> atrocities against Christians in Africa.

I heard that conversation too, but she's kinda all over the place with those
words. She should tell us who was trying to silence her and how, and what
she's doing different now to connect better with God.
