Pleeeease! I think the kid has learnt his lesson, no more punishment is required.

I'm thinking the 'hooked' card was a get out of jail quick play, good tactic too!

Hmm, tough choice??
Only gagging, no choice at all for me, I mean if my kids want to smoke a little pot, then they better bring a j home to share with their old daddy, but if they start hanging around with those bloody inane happy clappers, then I might as well jump off the back step, because I will have failed as a father, in teaching them that they find meaning in themselves and their relationships, not in make believe religious fantasy.

so for you, a drug addict is ok but a christian who cares for his fellow man isnt? odd sense of morality.

Interesting and well thought out post ignored.

If you haven't been to a Hillsong church service, you really can't comment because it's unlike any church service you have ever been to before - it's an exciting entertainment event, complete with rock band. That's why thousands of teenage kids flock there every week and keep coming back. Some are troubled drug users who have had their lives turned around but most are just good kids who embrace Christian values.

I went to one of their services years ago but was spooked when I heardy someone mumbling beside me and found out later that they were 'speaking in tongues' and never went back.

God's millionaires? Probably, but they are giving people of all ages reason and purpose and a desire to help others. So I say let them keep on doing what they do well, even if some of us think it's all a bit weird - they are changing lives for the better.

Yes I do. If I DONATE money to my employer, there's no tax deduction. If I DONATE money to my mum, there's no tax deduction. If I DONATE money to the kebab shop down the road, there's no tax deduction. Tax deductions for donations are only allowable for certain allowed organisations.

you've noticed that the thread has zero to do with paying tax or any of the other supposed discussion points. this is nothing more than people expressing their view on religion while happily ignoring any and all facts. it is pretty lame.

what are you talking about !! It is all about people becoming millionaires out of running a charity and get out of paying tax simply because it is classified as a charity when it really is a business selling bullshit to people Sad

He goes to a Christian school. Were his parents in Bali for some Christian business/convention?

Failed!!!
