Perhaps a little fun???

[EdmundBlackadderTheThird]

What would you all think of a new name for this forum? I have noticed that a lot of the other congregational forums have interesting names. I was thinking: "We put the FUN in Fundamentalism" or something along those lines, you know something to let me people know that while fundamentalists we are not stuffy, holier-than-thou, noses-in-the-air people :P

[LynneClomina]

yes. and here is my suggestion:

FUNDIEVILLE. (or "fundie villiage", or some variant).

why?

#1. we are fundamentalists. we can allow it to be a derogatory term used AGAINST us, or we can choose to use it to unite us. i choose unity and builing each other up.

#2. we are a community. we all live in the same spiritual house, biblical worldview, and feed on the same meals - the Bread and Water and Wine of God. we are "family".

#3. it's humourous. again, we can choose to use "fundie" for or against us. humour is a healing balm of sorts... besides, some of us seem pretty wacky. :P :D

or is it just me? :sorry: :help:

….. speaking of which, how’s this for wacky?

“fundies from the blue lagoon”

“fundamentally fundamentalist”

“the fundy fun house”

“oh, fundies, just wanna have bible, whoa fundies just wanna have BIBLE we wanna, …. we wanna have BIBLE, fundies, we wanna have …oh, we really wanna, we really wanna…. We really wanna, we really wanna…. We really wanna, we really wanna, … oh fundies, just wanna have BIBLE!!!!” ;) ("girls just wanna have fun")

“fundies, fundies, fundies,… must be fundy…. In an ungodly world…. Wooahohohaaho, all the things that we do, when we are a little fundy, in an ungodly… world!” ("money money money")

[WashedClean]

That's a great idea flesh! Go for it!!

Lynne - LOL, always a pleasure and blessing to read your posts. You go girl!!:pink:

[TomUK]

You could write a really catchy forum theme on those lines.

"They're fun and they're mental - the fundamentalists" (Think of the Addams family tune)

Excellent idea, Flesh. How about "Those Fabulous Fundies?" Shouldn't we also have a "Fundamentalist Manifesto"?

[tulc]

How about:
The Fundie Forum:"we put the 'mental' in fundamentalist"
tulc( ;) )

[Neenie]

Good one tulc. I'd certainly be happy to put the 'mental' in fundamentalist" :D



I read in a thread a couple of days ago about adding to rule six and newlamb mentioned to the OP to join "The fundie Safehouse" and I thought thats a great name to call the forum! and now this thread come up.. :)




.

[BarbB]

Thanks, Neenie. But we might get into more trouble than we are now! The term "safehouse" isn't safe anymore! :(

[Svt4Him]

It's time for Fun-da-maniacs
And we're zany to the max
So just sit back and relax
You'll laugh till you collapse
We're Fun-da-maniacs

Come join the Christian Forums
And the separate spots
Just for fun we run around the CF movie lot
They lock us in the tower whenever we get caught
But we break loose...
And then vamoose...
And now you know the plot

We're Fun-da-maniacs
Dot is cute and Yakko yaks
Wakko packs away the snacks
While Bill Clinton plays the sax
We're Fun-da-maniacs

Meet Pinky and the brain
Who want to rule the universe
Goodfeathers flock together,
Slappy wacks 'em with her purse
Buttons chases Mindy
While Rita sings a verse
The writers flipped
We have no script
Why bother to rehearse

We're Fun-da-maniacs
We have play for play contracts
We're zany to the max
There's baloney in our slacks
We're An-i-man-ee
Totally and zany
Here's the shows namey
Fun-da-maniacs
Those are the facts!

I should also add the song I posted was adapted from the Animaniacs theme song.

[Paula]

*patrick skulks away, tucked-tail*

[Fun_Fundie]

Fundyville sounds way cool!

[Kelly]

How about :

Foundations - Fundamental Churches

[LynneClomina]

i like fundyville - cuz we're not stick in the muds. most of the forums have way too serious names. --where is the fun in being a christian? we should be able to look upon ourselves with a light heart. ^_^

(EDIT: whoops - i'm voting for something i suggested! ^_^ you know your getting old when you dont remember stuff like that. ;) )

[PatrickM]

"We put the amen in Fund-amen-talist!"

[tulc]

"We put the amen in Fund-amen-talist!"
Ok, that was cool! :clap:
tulc(on the "list" of fundamentalist)

[Grace_Alone4gives]

"We put the amen in Fund-amen-talist!"Love it.....!!!

I like Fundy Farm also...
We could combine them.

Fundy Farm - we put the AMEN in FundAMENtalist

I like 'The Fundy Family' also

[LynneClomina]

i like fundy farm! :clap

[twistedsketch]

Fundamental Elements (for the rest of us P.O.D. lovers out there)

[Lady_Firehawk]

Back to Basics? :D

[aggie03]

I like that last one :)

What about: Back to the Beginning (means essentially the same thing :) )

[aggie03]

I also love the animaniacs adaption :D

[ChrisB]

Back to Basics? :D

This phrase will be forever tainted in British minds by the "Back to Basics" campaign of the last Conservative Prime Minister, John Major. At the same time as telling people they should raise their moral standards a large number of cabinet members (including Major himself) were (or had been having) extra-marital affairs. "Back to Basics" became a by-word for hypocrisy.

[twistedsketch]

Solid Ground?

[ChrisB]

Solid Ground?

I like that :)

[LynneClomina]

The Solid Rock?

[tulc]

The Solid Rock?
Only if Larry Norman posts here! ;)
tulc("I have the Rock that never Rolls!!")

[PatrickM]

Only if Larry Norman posts here! ;)
tulc("I have the Rock that never Rolls!!")
Wow, Larry Norman. Haven't heard him in, well, a long time :D

How 'bout Darrel Mansfield? They're both cut from the same cloth, eh?

[tulc]

Darrel Mansfield
A good brother! How about "All Saved Freak Band"? They had songs about Tolkien and the Lord of the Rings back in the 70's early Jesus movement.
tulc(who is still a Jesus freak and has been for decades!)

[TomUK]

Perhaps 'studiously stubborn'? :P

[tulc]

Happy birthday PatrickM!

tulc("I have the Rock that never Rolls!!")
i was thinking of that song,

On Christ the Solid Rock i stand
all other ground is sinking sand....
all other ground is sinking sand....

who's Larry Norman? :scratch:

[tulc]

who's Larry Norman? He was one of the first Christian rock musicians in the beginings of the Jesus Movement back in the early 70's. Check here: http://www.larrynorman.com/bio.html (http://www.larrynorman.com/bio.html) what's funny is if you listen to his stuff now he would be considered no where near Rock and Roll. I remember people really being upset with other Christians because they listened to Larry Norman. :sigh: The things we chose to get upset over. :sigh:

As tulc said, was sooo looked down upon about the time, oh, looks like when you were born ;)

How 'bout "Rez Band"? They were helpful in weening me off secular music early on. Funny, now that I'm more mature, listen to U2 all the time now :doh:
