I have been absolutely appalled with some of the things I have read in the past few days on this site. I can't believe that so many so-called "Facts" fans would get on here and spill out the
worst verbiage toward Lisa, her familiy, Christians, and even each other. I think hardly any of you have really learned anything
on the Facts of Life. And I think some of you so-called "Christians"
who feel confident in slagging Lisa and her "holier-than-thou" beliefs are hardly Christians at all. Why do you people come on here?? It's an absolutely depressing experience. And there are so many of you who have happened to meet Lisa while she's been on the road, that you still have the nerve to bash her while her back is turned. She is not perfect, but she doesn't deserve this kind of treatment. You guys would even slam Jesus as well.

Hey yeah what happened?? I mustve missed those posts..I dont read them all. What have people been saying?? I personally, find her to be my role model. I think out of ALL the women from then til now, shes one of the few worthy of looking up to!

There was a thread just closed about Lisa where people just got into the worst bad-mouthing of her that I had ever heard. If you
want to be depressed, look for it. I REALLY don't think she's raising her kids to be masochists or whatever. Yeah, right:
"Hey, kids, you have a choice, you want pudding for dessert, or a spanking??" "Spanking, spanking, yeaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay!!!!!"
"No, just decided, I can't let the pudding go to waste..." "AAAWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!"

I think as I've read the book over, I understand what she means,
don't you guys sometimes feel as if you deserve discipline or correction? I think she has a great philosophy behind it.

Btw, I didn't want to make anyone think I'M calling Lisa holier-than-thou, but other people were. If anyone really reads what she says, she has a great sense of humor and she's just as funny as "normal" people. And in her journal, I've noticed her HINT at naughtiness...;)

OMG why in the world would someone make fun of Lisa? As a celeb she is a good hearted and good natured person. For a celeb to say that she would take time out of her busy schedule to come to our message boards, is rare! She has a loving family. It takes a big person to show the world her faults and her daily life, because most of us wouldn't want anyone to know our faults. So basically all I am saying is that she is awesome!!!

:D

You might want to scan down to a recent one that says "Lisa Whelchel..." started by Ricky Ricardo. The thread is actually closed, thank God.

Oh my freaking God! Would you all just shut up already?! I don't give a damn if I piss any of you off. Holy crap, why are you all taking it so personally? "Waah waah waah! People on an internet message board are saying mean things about Lisa Whelchel. Waah waah waah!" Oh boo-freakin'-hoo. Cry me a river, build me a bridge and jump off of it.

It's OVER! Blair's My Cherry Pie, it was totally unecessary for you to bring this subject up again. TJ closed the post. It's finished. Done. SO JUST FORGET ABOUT IT!!!!!!!

I guess I must have missed that whole discussion but just went down and read through it. Interesting. I have alot of respect for Lisa. She has every right to believe what she wants.
That said, I followed her trip through her journal for the last year and found it to be a mostly fun read. However, she said some things I found to be offensive. I won't say the things that offended me, I don't want to start anything up again. It's her right to say whatever she pleases on her own website, so I didn't let it bother me too much. But when you put your thoughts and opinions out in the public domain, like she has, then you must expect that people are going to discuss and criticize what you say. Simple fact. I'm sure she is used to it and expects it. There were some things written in that thread that were ridiculous, the cussing and elusions to violence should be removed by the moderator, but some posts were just expressing their feelings and opinions about religion and religious people in general. Expressing your opinion is a good thing.
Lisa does come off as an almost fundamentalist type Christian. To me, fundamentalism can be a very dangerous thing. I won't expand on that, since I know people would be angry by what I say. Not saying that Lisa is a fundamentalist, I don't know her.
Anyway, I have no problem with very religious people, unless they try to impose their morals, values and beliefs on me. To each his own. That is the most unique and amazing thing about our great country.

Just wanted to add my comments about this.

PS - "Religion is the enemy of God"
"Religion is what happens when God has left the room"
These are some of my favorite quotes, by a certain famous person I like and respect alot, a friend of the Pope. Can ya guess who? ;)

i agree w/ Shattered soult 100000000000%%%....... i'm sure Lisa Whelchel could CARE LESS what peple @ a stupid message board, that she probably will never come to, say about her. Yea, making fun of peoples religion is aweful... yea, offending people is bad.. yea, mean people do suck... but life isn't fair, and those people are there... ya can't kill 'em, ya sure as hell can't change 'em, so just deal w/ it. Get off your pout horse and go get a life...

Okay, why am I bringing up a post again that was already closed?
Simple, every once in a while, some charming individual(s) will start getting into a little verbal slam-fest on Lisa or some other character on the FOL. I felt that the criticisms were cruel and no doubt would go on in some form or other. There are a lot of people like myself who have a very good idea of who Lisa Whelchel is, and can assure you that she is NOT a person who "pushes" religion or anything on anyone. I know there were
a lot of sick things said in response to how she raises her kids, all
because they took something she said in one of her books and made her out to be some abusive parent. I know that Lisa is now
using young people's newfound interest in her as a way to bring the message of Christ into their lives, and that some people on the boards just wanted to slam her as being a "holier-than-thou"
type who was merely a spiritual tyrant. It seems in this post 9/11
world, everyone has this token appreciation for religion, but Christianity seems to be dissed as intolerant and oppressive.
People who know Lisa regard her as a very kind person who wants to share the love of God in a way that doesn't offend or scare off people, she wants to make Jesus a REAL person in our lives. It infuriates me that people who have no idea of what she's all about want to paint her as a brainless "fundamentalist"
and twist her words around to make her the opposite of what she really is. I think it's more out of spite and a prior contempt for Christianity that makes people do this. I think that thread was closed because people were getting very vulgar and abusive
in their language, especially toward her.

Maybe I shouldn't post a reply on this thread, but I think I will anyway. I know Blair's My Cherry Pie had good intention by posting this, but I somehow get the feeling that this is going to turn out into an ugly fight too.

I think that instead of posting this we should've just let the Lisa post just go down to the bottom of the pile. jmo

Please..how old are we?? Do you really think Lisa could give a rats toosh what we think?? Maybe, yeah, if people act the way some of you have been acting. Frankly this whole damn thread needs to be closed so we can get on with our lives. Theres more to life than Lisa! Im not yelling at any one person, because frankly, this whole thread is pissing me off! Im sorry I even posted in this thing a few days ago!!! If you have a comment about Lisa or whoever, state it if someone else doesnt like it, tell them to get over it!!!!

I was trying to let this whole thing pass me by but, I can no longer ingore it. As a person rasied in a home were spankings were rare but, there was no doubt that if you needed one you got it and i mean with a belt on the backside, my parent's did not belive in abuse by no means . I was also rasied in a christan home with good morals and things and saved young. I agree with Lisa that right and wrong must be taught and i agree that sometimes spankings are the only way they can be taught. I also know that as a young woman that in the future when I have children all of you are going to need the phone number and address of my local DSS and mine becouse when all is said and done I will be spanking my child.

Well IMO hitting a kid or anyone with a belt is abuse. I was never spanked. Mom hit me on the leg once because... I dont remember why. So i hit her back, and is she ever "spanked" me with a belt or with her hands you can be damn sure id fight back. i have respect for her. I didn't hit her hard at all. Just too let her know that that was something that would not be happening. personally, whenever she goes to do something like that It makes me get loud and scream and freak out. it's a good thing she doesn;t spank me for her sake... I have sorta anger management i think... Im always mad at someone. haha.

Im catholic by the way. Goin to catholic school. Just because I think LW is a stoopid freek doesn't mean i like hate jesus or anything. So **** you "Blair's up my Red as Cherries Spanked Raw Ass"!!!!!
