This is an extended episode because we have a lot to say about manipulative non-believers who take advantage of the "nice" Christians...
But first, we chat for about Grandma Turbo's upcoming nuptials, yard work, and taking responsibility.
Later:
-"Kind" and "intelligent" and "friendly" non-believers are even more dangerous than the militant jerks. This is especially true when this is their brand.
-We often teach Christians that they OWE IT to non-believers to reward their so-called friendliness. ("You catch more flies with honey than vinegar.") This makes people more vulnerable to narcissists and other predators who try very hard to be likeable.
-Here's a story about Tabby being manipulated by a royal jerk in college. ("You're not being very Christlike...")
-Moms often feel mean when they take authority in a particular situation--especially when the toddler or child says "I just want a hug!" or "I just want to snuggle."
Finally:
-WOULD YOU TURN DOWN A CHANCE TO HAVE PIZZA WITH RICKY GERVAIS???
