] Date Posted: 21:10:08 03/03/08 Mon In reply to: Juli 's message, "Michelle Phillips Vanity Fair Article" on 17:48:38 03/01/08 Sat I'm still somewhat in disbelief or shock that Chynna is a "born-again." I'm curious to know just how radical her beliefs and actions are. Born agains have a reputation for being so extreme, I just wonder how extreme Chynna may be.

Date Posted: 09:28:46 03/04/08 Tue This article makes me sad. Every time I read about Chynna doing her Christian thing it makes me sad. I am not judging her and she can do whatever she wants but it still makes me sad for some reason. I always think when I read about this "Kiss Wilson Phillips goodbye!" >I'm still somewhat in disbelief or shock that Chynna >is a "born-again."
