Sorry to be a party pooper, but those vests are slightly different. Though I wouldn’t be surprised if they did do that.
Actually the vests are from the wedding but the shirts and bowties are different.coolusername1236 wrote:Sorry to be a party pooper, but those vests are slightly different. Though I wouldn’t be surprised if they did do that.
And yes they’re definitely hypocrites. They stopped talking about religion a loooong time ago, but the celebrities made a special appearance on Easter!
It's because we got to see the "Real" them and not the acts that they usually put on. I really enjoyed watching them. It reminded me how they were when Ollie was a baby.
I haven't watched it, but I'm amazed that you all are saying that they're actually likeable. I still don't believe it's the "real" them, though. Because the instastories were really douchey. I think it's the curated sweet happy family that they used to post in their vlogs. There is way too much evidence out there of how entitled and snotty they are for me to believe that they are doing anything but continuing to put on an act.PirateWench8 wrote:It's because we got to see the "Real" them and not the acts that they usually put on.

It’s a big deal because they started out as this sweet, humble, religious family, but then when the money started coming in, we never heard a thing about their faith anymore. And now they’re just showing up to church on Easter and taking photos for Instagram to be like “oh hey look we’re still religious!” when their actions speak completely otherwise.chrimsi wrote:I hope I am not being insensitive, but what is the big deal about them not tælking about religion?

They started out talking about it a lot, and only stopped talking about it once they started making a lot of money. It just makes them come across as hypocritical, because a big part of religion is being humble and sharing your wealth with others and not being greedy.chrimsi wrote:So you are only religious if you talk about your faith all the time?scojacar wrote:It’s a big deal because they started out as this sweet, humble, religious family, but then when the money started coming in, we never heard a thing about their faith anymore.

And why is it a bad thing they never talk about it?
Sorry, I'm just trying to understand.

Plus, they did that whole Cambodia thing, weren't honest about what the money was for,-- converting people. People thought they were giving money for clean water. But it was for a mission. And Bryan went to Cambodia, said it "changed" him, but went right back to being greedy and materialistic. _And_ made a big deal about buying Missy a counterfeit Michael Kors bag, when the counterfeit luxury business runs off of child slavery.RootBeerFloatie wrote:There are some people (like the Lannings) who only make a big deal about their religion when it's 'trendy' to, like Easter or Christmas. They'll go to church and talk all about jesus and the resurrection for the sake of the holiday, but 50/52 Sundays a year won't attend church at all. They're just posers, plain and simple.
It's also a bit annoying to people who attend regularly and take their faith very seriously, and then on the important days of the year a bunch of random people show up to church, kind of like how regulars at the gym get annoyed with the "new year's resolution" crowd at the beginning of January.
I *think* what the poster is trying to say is that when they first started out they seemed more religious, i.e. went to church often, talked about God, seemed humble and caring...but as they've gotten bigger they have become greedy, materialistic and selfish (from what we see anyways) yet still try to pretend they are these great christian people when they go to church on the holidays. Those people do get a bit of a bad rep here- personally, my only qualm is that parking and seating is scarce lol but mostly I think its great to have them come at all.chrimsi wrote:Arg, I totally forgot the Combodia-situation, I totally understand that point.
But I do nit get how being religious makes you poser-ish.
I live in a county where over 70 % is member of the church, but maybe 5 % of them attend church more than at Christmas, and at Christmas maybe 50 % do. And most of those members identifie as atheists.
And that is despite we live in a Christian country, like our queen/king HAVE to be Christian. Our religion class in grade school is called 'christianity' even though we learn about many religions, mainly Islam and Christianity.
My point is, I do not 100% understand religion's truly impact on the US even though I know it have a very big impact.

I was thinking the exact same thing.Theirmom wrote:They were never super religious. I’ve been watching them since it was just Missy’s channel before they were even vlogging.
They NEVER were the “sweet, humble, religious family.”
They’ve always been wishy-washy about church attendance. They’ve always only mentioned religious stuff if/when it was suitable for views.
I appreciate that they’re not religiously preachy. I’m not religious at all, and firmly believe that spirituality is a private matter and that it’s super tacky to constantly bring it up in mixed company.
And, for all their faults, they ARE generous. They give a LOT to their church and local toy drives, and they have never really talked much about that on the vlog.
If they never talk about it, how do you know they are so generous?Theirmom wrote:They were never super religious. I’ve been watching them since it was just Missy’s channel before they were even vlogging.

And "who loves the way these two support each other"? WTF does that even mean? I know squat about them or their relationship. And I love how it's "our little sister is married", but Bryan's sister is _Bryan's_ sister. [IMG]//uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201904 ... 779820.jpg[/IMG]

Missy definitely talked a lot about how her faith got her through her 20-week miscarriage. I just went back and watched a couple of the first videos to make sure I wasn’t losing my mind. In my opinion they definitely came across as sweet and humble in those videos, but others may have seen that differently. I just know they’re a far cry now from where they were then.Theirmom wrote:They were never super religious. I’ve been watching them since it was just Missy’s channel before they were even vlogging.
