Dani has this post about Dick and religion in her online journal:

14 Aug 2005|02:45am]

I enjoy intellectual conversations with intellectual people. Today i disscussed religion with my father. Its nice talking about it with a person who's not religious because theyre not one sided and stubborn. It was a nice conversation too.

Why would Dick go to Catholic school if his mother is an ordained minister, and Catholics don't allow female ministers?

BTW read back how Amber "prayed." I tell ya, I try hard not to judge how someone else prays as it is such a personal thing. I've word hard to not say much bout Jameka's, um, unusual style and phrasing. But dang it...I have a hard time keeping my mouth shut with Amber.

Someone really should explain to her that her justifying her greedy needs to God isn't exactly spiritually based prayer, least IMHO. And shouldn't God know and determine what we 'need' versus what we want. And much as folks say Dick is playing for the Camera's, things like this make me think Amber is doing it more. Is that for God or for us?? So she comes across as so worthy and loving and selfless, as she is thinking of others.

I know most of us have said this kidding around or half serious, and even that loooooong great article we all read for a few hours yesterday (lol) commented on it. But I honestly feel that Amber may, of ALL past HG in BB history be in for the biggest shock when she leaves the house. Look at how she truly believes all the HG just adore her, including those who can't stand her lol. I don't believe her popularity has ever reached 1% the entire season. I truly hope they INSIST she work with a counselor when she leaves there, cause I truly think she's going to have a VERY hard time with it.

I can't fathom how she felt her drug history and lying (and what she lied about) and all that would go over well with America. But I think she will be unable to cope with what she sees has been said about her, and how fan reaction to her will be (not to mention how often she was voted to be the targeted person by AP).

I don't like Amber, but I honestly don't want to see her life ruined or have her self-destruct, which my gut tells me might likely happen. I'm not kidding when I say I hope BB realizes this and takes steps to help her.

I always wonder about the hg and why they do not get into intelligent conversations...would be so very interesting with all the different views with all the different people with different backgrounds....and then they would not have to complain about being so very bored all of the time.

Cmist, point taken.

Most of the atheists I've met have been intellectual, and more knowledgeable about the Bible than many. A few have been condescending towards and belittling of believers, but many have been respectful. Not believing in God isn't synonymous with being a monster (imho).

Zmom just saw your reply to my post..yup. And ties in perfectly to what I just wrote about Amber. I think she has the least understand. I really have a bad feeling bout this/her. And I don't think she will understand why "God didn't answer her prayers" and think it might shake her faith too.

I kept hoping Jameka might talk to her more about God's role, but then again I think her predestined view is as skewered as Amber's prayers so strike that lol. Maybe they both need a good shrink AND a good Minister waiting when they leave :-)

The thing that amazes me about atheists is if they are in massive pain, they most often utter"God help me". lol

I agree Lurk, but i do not see bb giving a hoot about amber when this is over...and i also think that amber will pay more attention to the few nice things said about her than any of the bad... and what little attention she does read or hear about that is bad....she justify it in her own mind as to america just does not understand.

Lots of non-Catholic parents who live in crappy school districts send their kids to Catholic schools.

Sometimes parents just want their kids to be in a more structured environment, even if they're in better school districts.

Puzzled oh yes, I agree, however, its rare that an ordained minister would send their child to a Catholic school.

Loppes good point about Dick's Mom...sorry...so maybe it was Lutheran or some other denomination. In high school I had a friend and BOTH her parents were Lutheran ministers (ironically she grew up and totally rejected all organized religion too lol). Cleary I didn't think that through--my bad, good catch! But am I wrong or didn't Dani say she went to Catholic school? Of course that might have just been the only local religiously based school etc.

Laralyn, or she'll use the usual "it was the editing" excuse.

Yeah, Lurk and Kona: I agree...this is also consistent with a comment Dick made on Showtime this week '...I know the Bible better than anyone here in the house...'

Dick's mother wasn't an ordained minister when he was growing up. I read somewhere that she's only been a minister for something like 10? years.

awww, dani is so pretty with her natural hair color. and her boyfriend was much handsomer than nick. her puppy is a cutie too.
on conversation, lol, if they had phones and could text they would prob have some great conversations. teens today are so involved with there cells, computers and tv. talking face to face is strange.

i grew up baptist and it was hard breaking out. to this day it's hard for me to wear pants. i only have 1 pair of jeans. it's ingrained in my head that women are to wear dresses. doesn't mean i don't believe in God, just mans perception of God. so i understand and agree with dick.

Oh my, it appears that Amber was checking to see if the camera's were on for her little crying jag.
I am thinking too that she is trying constantly to garner sympathy. Maybe she is still hoping for AMerica's choice. Little does she know that seems to be a thing of the past. The queen of AC is Janelle and may hold the throne for life.

Ner, I thought so as well. I thought at some point she mentioned a Christian school by Disneyland that she attended for awhile, although I don't recall if that was in her livejournal thing or on the feeds.

ETA, I think Sparkle is right...it was Dick not Dani. I knew it was one of them and was running through my mental list of which school it could have been and forgot which D/D it was that said it! Thank you!
