Re: Reason enough to leave?

I only posted three pages of the standard handout. There was also a multi page study guide with even more ludicrous positions in it.
In other posts I told the story of a young lady who had just gotten married and was sitting in this class. She is "cursed" with a very irregular period which can last from 3 to 14 days and seems to come at random times. She was told point blank that nothing can "happen" during this period AND during the 7 days following due to the Levitical cleansing period. Throw into the mix that "nothing was to happen" on Sunday or Sat night (because it is of course proceeded by Sunday -in a Monty Pythonisque sort of way), and their sex life was reduced down to a couple of days a month.
A few months after we left, she called my wife in tears because her AND HER HUSBAND got to "fooling around" on a... <gasp>.... Sunday afternoon and she was racked with guilt because she had gone against the pastors teachings on marital sex.
In this case there are THREE people at fault: The pastor for throwing this ridiculas doctrine at people and denying to them everything that God has granted, and 2) This lady for LISTENING to him and 3) her husband for not putting his foot down.

But yes, when strange doctrine rears its ugly head, I very much feel like you need to run as fast as your chubby little legs will carry you.
