I have not heard of needing permission to miss or enjoy a vacation. However I do know that pastors do appreciate being told that a person is not going to be in attendance. As far as the issue of marriage, I know that very often the pastor (or pastors if it involves saints from two churches) are involved from the very beginning of the process. Further, I have heard heard of pastors not condoning the marriage and not attending the ceremony, but never forbidding marriage.

As for the rollerskating, was it at a rink or just in the neighborhood? That would have an effect somewhat on how I would answer that question.

In a rink on 'christian night' when the only music played is contemporary christian music, all the kids are church kids from the local churches and there are chaperones aplenty.

Honestly Jay I am glad that this stuff does not exist in your experience and I pray that it NEVER does, ever. I am so thankful that you have never come under abusive authority.

oohhh clicked on the link for a free concert earlier and found a radio station... they are playing a song called 'Ready yourselves or Until the whole world hears.. or something...' makes me want to rollerskate!!
