You might be an ex-fundie if.....you had a "bleep" machine on your TV....that is, if you were allowed to have a TV.

[Ex-IFBer]

...if a khaki, knee length skirt was a staple in your wardrobe, if you owned a denim jumper and wore tennis shoes with it, and if you know what the term "mixed bathing" means.

We weren't - until I was a teenager in the mid-1980s.

You might be an ex-fundie if . . . you still feel guilty when you listen to CCM even if you mentally know it's not unbiblical.

If you have a list that starts with, "You might be and Ex-Fundie if you _____." then you Might be an ex Fundie.

If you feel guitly about not "dressing up in Suit and Tie" for church you might be a male ex-Fundie.

If you feel guilty about about not wearing a dress to church, you may be a male who just has issues.

If you see a Baptist Chirch with a Revival sign out front and you fight the urge to pull into the parking lot and go in... you might be an ex-Fundie.

If you have felt the desire to come to the defense of Chuck Phelps the last couple of days, then you are not an Ex-fundie yet.

You might be an ex-fundie if....the only way you can recite Scripture now is in the King James Version.

[Jenni]

if hearing "Just as I am" or "I Surrender All" give you altar call twitches.

if you still can't eat in a restaurant with a "bar-like atmosphere"

if you have ever walked up to a complete stranger and said, "If you died today, do you know where you'd go?" before you formed any sort of relationship with them at all

if you have never darkened the door of a theater...

Haha, I used that term tonight and my husband said "What is THAT?"

...he was never a fundie. He has no concept of these things.

And just the thought of wearing pants to church was enough to give you a case of nerves, you're probably a female fundy.

Knee length? Your church must have been far less spiritual than mine. Ours were ankle length. Knee length is definite compromise.
