Help! I'm going to be on Christian Radio! |
|
I don't have anything against Christians (I myself am a lapsed Catholic married to another lapsed Catholic), however....for reasons must DUers understand I get the heebie jeebies whenever religion and Christianity are mentioned. The wacko extremeists that have co-opted faith for their own hatred have made religion a dirty word.
Ok so anyway, I am an elder abuse victim advocate and I am going to interviewed on a local radio show, that just happens to be Christian. I am a little nervous - mainly because I have a major potty mouth
The topic will be about brining awareness about elder abuse - so I am all for it - but 55 minutes with a filter on my mouth...I better pray now
wish me luck (and if anyone is interested I can give you the link to interview to download for your listening pleasure when its over)

It's a topic people need to understand and you'll have a sympathetic audience.
If you're really worried about filtering, take along a picture of an elderly person or a child who you love and wouldn't cuss in front of, just in case you need a reminder.
Good luck! Really, you'll be fine.

2. Wow, I totally missed the word 'awareness' there |
|
so all I saw was 'the topic will be about bringing about elder abuse - so I am all for it. And I was like WTF?!?!
Mental note: wait until I'm fully awake to read and post...
