ya got me, no problem.

I have found that CoG Anderson and WCG have quite a bit of similarities, as well as some differences. My grandparents only turned on the TV for the weather. Once the weather was over with on the news, the TV had to go off again and while music was OK, it had to be Xian music. My grandmother was the church organist. Jewelry was sinful until around the 50s or 60s, then they allowed it, but women could not be overly adorned. I did get lucky in that when I was at my grandparents’ house as kid I was allowed to watch Captain Kangaroo and the old cartoons like Felix the cat, if they were on, but then the TV was once again turned off. As a teen if I listened to the radio, it had to be on a Xian radio station, like it or not. I found the music boring for the most part. My grandfather read a lot and not everything was Xian. He came to the conclusion that there was no way that God only put people on Earth and believed there had to be others out there somewhere. In which case, we had to evangelize to them. And my grandmother read a lot of Harlequin novels, so they didn’t stick 100% to the cult teachings, even though my grandfather was the assistant minister. Yeah, I was a PC and I don’t mean “privilege character”, although I was a bit privileged.
