1275.0. "fun golf" by GOLF::GENDRON () Wed Jun 12 1991 17:57

    Hello, I am looking for a group of Christian golfers.  I live in
    
    Shirley so I have access to several golf courses.  I like to go out on
    
    Saturdays early in the morning.  The reason I am looking for Christian
    
    golfers is because I am tired of bad mannerd foul mouthed people that
    
    I usually get matched up with.

    um... you may open a VERY BIG can of worms with this one.

    I agree with .1 -- .0 is rather implication-rich, I read this conference 
    for fun -I don't think this note belongs here.

    You may consider playing golf on Sunday or Wednesday.  Many Christians
    out there since many go to church Sat. evening and the Ministers play
    on Wed. with there Dr. buddies.
    
    If you need more help, read the jokes file for christian oriented
    jokes.  Manners and attitude are not an exclusive of the Christian
    faith.  Quite often the contrary is true.  Played some LDS basketball
    and softball in my life and found the behavior following the pre=game
    prayer to be very non-fellowship like.
    
    For other christian oriented golf accessories, I suggest Caddyshack and
    See No Evil, Speak No Evil, Hear No Evil golf tees available at many
    non denominational golf shops.
    
    Bill...are you out there.  Boy did I have to bite my tongue on this
    one.

    I didn't mean to offend anybody, I am a golfer and would just like 
    to find other golfers that like to go out and have fun, without using
    four letter words after every shot.  I have many bad shots and have
    found practice to be a cure.

    Jesus lived umong the sinners. We are all sinners. As a matter of fact
    the way I play golf is a sin.

    Moderator here...
    
    I'm going to write-lock this topic while I discuss it with the other
    moderators.
    
    I don't feel the overtones of the base note are appropriate for this
    conference - if it's only Christians you're interested in, you are
    likely to find an audience that's exclusively so in GOLF::CHRISTIAN.
    
    As for the rest of the replies, I sense an unacceptable trend (if one
    can truly be sensed after only three replies!) towards Christian-bashing.
    My feeling is that's equally inappropriate in this conference.
    
    Let's keep the religious agruments limited to two vs. three piece balls
    or Vardon vs. interlocking grips, OK?
