I find that listening to some Coldplay is a nice
way to settle my BF...
It's like U2-lite |

I don't have BF myself, and I'm not worried about
second-hand BF, but what advice do people here have
for friends of BF sufferers? What should we do to
help our friends if we don't understand what they're
going through? I like some of U2's music, but don't
have any of there CDs. Should I get one or two and
try to enter their world to meet them halfway? Would
you suggest reading "Conversations" and
starting a discussion with them? There are people
out there like me who are willing to help, it's
just we have no resources. I think this site could
become that resource. Many BF sufferers will not
come here, but they will come to us, their friends
for help (even if they don't know they're asking
for help, I can see it in their eyes). Please, I
need some advice. BF sufferers or former BF sufferers,
what should I do to help my friends? |

I'm in seminary, and though I'm acutely aware
of my own insetting BF, it seems BF is infiltrating
the faculty as well. How to cure doctors of BF? |

I don't get it. Not ONE of the fellas at the top
of this page looks even REMOTELY like Sonny Bono! |

BTW, Coldplay, as mentioned earlier, is quite
possibly one of the worst ways to de-tox. You are
experiencing the typical self-deception stage of
BF. Listening to a completely different genre is
most effective at treating BF.
I know
because I went through the self-deception stage.
I had to listen to As I Lay Dying for 2 months.
Extreme therapy sessions involved flaming electronics
and blunt weapons while listening to Frail Words
Collapse at high volume. I scared alot of neighbors,
alientated my wife, and cut my hands up punching
raw motherboards...but it was worth it.
Im really glad I came out of it, because my office
was wondering where all their printers went...and
also because listening to country might have had
side effects I wouldn't be able to forgive myself
for. |

oh, dear, i think as a result of writing my book
on U2 and faith I got bono fatigue. during 2005
i listened to every U2 song many times, read every
lyric, interview, and book I could find about the
band. finally, after the book came out this spring,
i had to get away and so i followed angel of harlem
into the jazz past of america and I've been listening
to miles, bird, trane, monk and the rest for the
last few months--and reading some great books like
john swezd's bio of miles davis called "so
what" actually, though, no africa fatigue.
that feels impossible to me when I have such a
nice life. my nice life belongs to those who are
sick and starving, and somehow i just find it
gives me life, purpose, to know that my strength
can try to push forward efforts for their lives
to be better.
peace, chris scharen |

Uhm, I hate to take the wrong "serious tack"
here, but whatever Bono's fans think of him, at
least he isn't teaching outright heresy.... I am
certain God doesn't honor that.
