You’ve not lived until you’ve watched a metro bus force a guy with a cow strapped to his moped to pull out of a wobble-swerve to avoid doing an Evel Knievel into the ditch!
I can remember first learning of Bill Gothard and his three ring binders when I was still a pious Pentecostal in around 1973 or 74. Even then he seemed like nothing more than a hardcore patriarchal authoritarian. In retrospect, I think I felt that he lacked any spiritual life. He was probably a response to the rise of feminism which undermined patriarchal authority. How did your mother respond to the patriarchal thumb? I had a number of Southern friends who thought Gothard was fantastic.
If spiritual experiences were like the states of water, Gothard would be a frozen block of ice. I don't know many women or children living under that umbrella who reveled and thrived in such an environment.
Spot on: “The driver laughed and turned his face to the road. ‘No good guys. Both big enough to do what you want.’”
