A friend of mine left home to attend a secular college (frowned upon in the AG). Upon her graduation she applied to grad school in a secular college (frowned upon even more). However, her big mistake was her fiancee was attending a seminary to become a Methodist pastor. The pastor's wife counseled her to end the relationship because she was entering an "unequally yoked" marriage. Plus, and here is the kicker her fiancee would lead her astray from the true faith with all his book learning. To her credit she stood up, told the pastor's wife where to stick it and never came back. I left within six months.

I'm just glad that I'd left the Assemblies of God before I met my wife... she had been a nun (left before she took final vows) and had years of education in the Episcopal church... they would probably have thought of her as the devil incarnate.

I must admit that she went through some rough times because of how I'd been programmed and the cr*p I'd been taught about God and Jesus (something I still deal with) ... something I'm ashamed of now.
