You are a generation of hippies, no wonder you know things that can be only interesting to your own pleasure.

 

I call you ignorant, because you said Corrie was resistance fighter, which she never was. You compared her to Billy Graham, a tele-evangelist who has a comfortable life and enjoys his fame, which she never was either.

Ignorant or not, Corrie WAS in the resistance in WWII (Dutch resistance against the Germans, she and her family helped Jews, they ended up in a concentration camp Ravensbruck). I compared her to Billy Graham not because of her life style but because she was preaching like he was. 

 

In English you can read here:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrie_ten_Boom

 

In Dutch, the explanation is slightly different:http://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrie_ten_Boom

there you´ll find the word ´verzetsstrijdster´ meaning resistance fighter. 

 

Oh and I´m certainly no hippie nor only interested in things only for my own pleasure, I just don´t like evangelists too much.

Julien Sorel and Oblomov: Two different, even almost opposite, heroes of the two well-known novels: The Red and The Black by Stendhal and Oblomov by Goncharov. I was once like a Julien Sorel - rash, dynamic, agile, energetic. Because I had already implemented and expreienced my own French Revolution. For some time, however, I feel exactly like Oblomov - lazy, indolent, weak, boring, suffocating... calm before the storm... Then this time I must be waiting for my own Russian Revolution. I´m waiting and will see...

Im sick and tired of those who look for a dirt under your nails. Of those who constantly are offended by anything or anyone. You cant say this or that. Whatever you say or do offends someone.

Folks, it doesnt make sense. Get a life! Breathe!
