…so let’s see if I can do a really short post about the headcovering thing.
Quick (hopefully) answer is: We believe the headcovering referenced there is a literal headcovering, not the hair, and that the hair is used as a symbol, but an additional headcovering is what is expected by the chapter. From the context, we think that…[Read more]

@seekjustice Oh, to clarify, in the last post I said I don’t think God’s commandments change depending on the culture you live in. I do, however, know that they are often understood differently depending on the culture. I also believe that, as it says in Romans 14, what is a sin for some may not be a sin for others since even with a literal i…[Read more]

@seekjustice Ooh, not afraid of controversial subjects, are we? 😛
So, I don’t believe commandments change with cultures. I think you’re remembering that I said we understand some parts of the Bible in a different way because of the Middle Eastern background, but what I meant was that we understand some of the things in the Bible which are…[Read more]

@seekjustice Haha, so that’s why you listed him as a fantasy/allegory author. I’ve read about ten or twelve of his romance novels. 😛
But anyway, my mom had read them as a teenager, so when I ran out of books in the library, and I was about fifteen or sixteen, she said I was old enough to read them. There wasn’t much “mush” in them, as they w…[Read more]

@seekjustice Basically, I was going to ask, How much have you read of George MacDonald? I know you’ve read The Princess and the Goblins. 😉

@seekjustice You’re probably not up anymore, but I just wanted to say… “Whoops!” 😛 Sorry, I didn’t mean to imply you’d said anything I disagreed with in your last post. I’m pretty sure we agree on the topic. (I said “inspired” by your post, not “incited” by the post! 😉 😛 )
Anyway, whenever you get this, I hope you’re reassured that th…[Read more]

@seekjustice Hello? I just remembered that it’s Sunday for you, but I was thinking of talking about theology anyway, inspired by your latest blog post… 😉

I’ve never cut my hair much above my waist. But I can imagine how horrified I’d be if I somehow had to get it cut above my ears, like Chessy! I think the very shortest I could ever stand would have to be several inches below my shoulders, but I much prefer it long.
@seekjustice 😛 Yeah, on the first video Jane Maree posted, I…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 So you already got through the Jonas visit scene! 😀
Oh yes, the haircut part is horrible. I mean, if they could have just cut it below her ears! But no, she got this horrible, scary haircut, and all her beautiful long hair is gone. 🙁

@seekjustice Yup! I was tired. Fell asleep a little after twelve. 😉
@jenwriter17 What part of Stars are you at now?
You’ve watched the whole series several times?!! There are fourteen seasons! I’ve only seen a few episodes. 😛

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 8 months ago
@jenwriter17 I’m doing great! How about you?
What are you working on now?
I’m going to watch Bonanza with my family later tonight, so I’m excited about that. Have you ever seen it? You do like old tv shows, right?

Rochellaine replied to the topic Writers' Corner #19 in the forum General Writing Discussions 7 years, 8 months ago
@jenwriter17 You still around?
@seekjustice @valtmy @alia I’m studying/writing/getting distracted 😀
@dekreel I miss you again! Where have you disappeared to? 😉

@kaymart Hey! That sounds very interesting. I can’t promise I’ll be able to critique all your bits and pieces, but I can give you my comments on this one. 🙂
So, that bit of writing is very intriguing. I like the simple symbolism of the bending grass. One thing I think should probably be reworded is the part where Marcus says why he can’t lea…[Read more]

@alia Ah, I see. 🙂
Well, I would guess that’s probably because I’m only nineteen, so most people would assume I was in my first or second year. I started college a bit younger than the average age, I think. 😉
Part of what I like so much about Daughter of Judas is that my “antagonists” are the Christians, so that’s a big twist on the average…[Read more]

@alia That sounds interesting, though not something I’d want to do. I can’t stand anything that has to do with medical stuff. 😛 I hope it goes well for you.
No, I’m actually halfway through my third year. I’ll graduate in December of 2019.
Ah, I’ve even forgotten or skipped scenes I wrote for specific spots in my books. 😉 I guess it’s bec…[Read more]

@alia I’m doing pretty well, but am extremely tired. However, I have quite a bit of studying to do, so I’ll be attempting to keep awake for a while and review some legal definitions… 😉
Oh, fun! I write a lot of little scenes, and often many of them don’t end up in the finished book, 😛 so it’s cool that you’re able to actually put that in.

@catwing 😀 Curly black hair is basically all you need to know. He’s pretty easy to spot. 😉
