My personal experience is that a Christian summer camp is exactly that. Layzeebeaver Jul 2025 #38

It is an attempt for extra sympathy, as in Bluetus Jul 2025 #41

The school children slaughtered in Uvalde Retrograde Jul 2025 #59

I agree. A very large share of Christians, when faced with a situation they could improve Bluetus Jul 2025 #68

It's literally a Christian camp. The girls and their families Melon Jul 2025 #72

Highlights the freak nature of this storm. It dumped 15" in an hour. Melon Jul 2025 #50

That's why they are called FLASH floods Bluetus Jul 2025 #43

Right. That's a known very dangerous valley for floods. But nobody predicted anywhere close to the rainfall Melon Jul 2025 #56

That's why they call it a Mossfern Jul 2025 #61
