Moonlight Graham Posted October 30, 2012 Report Posted October 30, 2012 (edited) This is story is from several months ago but I don't remember seeing a thread about it here. This is one of the most vile rants I've ever seen from a "so-called" Christian (a pastor no less!). How did the people in the pews not get up and leave after hearing this? I don't see anything remotely 'Jesus-like' in this man's preaching.

msj Posted October 30, 2012 Report Posted October 30, 2012 (edited) This was brought it by kimmy in the Christian persecution thread. By you bringing it up again you now risk the wrath of the christian defenders who now see you as persecuting them by using your freedom of speech to criticize a guy who is an all round creepy kind of guy who happens to be a christian. Have fun with that. I guess no harm in piling on, eh? How about Hurricane Sandy being caused by the homosexual agenda? Of course now we will both be accused of offending Christians everywhere (even though we are only picking on the ones specifically mentioned). Lets throw some criticism in on the Muslims too: Fundamentalist Muslim vs Conservative Christian - take the test on who said what Edited October 30, 2012 by msj Quote If a believer demands that I, as a non-believer, observe his taboos in the public domain, he is not asking for my respect but for my submission.

kimmy Posted October 30, 2012 Report Posted October 30, 2012 OH YA well Muslims say that homos should be put to death but I don't see any threads criticizing them so why are we just talking about Christians this is so typical of you anti-Christian bigots you are all Muslim-loving Christian haters!!! !!!!!

Oh, btw: here's my post from back in May about this guy, which was actually just one of four astounding incidents involving North Carolina pastors that month. -k Edited October 31, 2012 by kimmy Quote (╯°□°)╯︵ ┻━┻ Friendly forum facilitator! ┬──┬◡ノ(° -°ノ)

msj Posted October 31, 2012 Report Posted October 31, 2012 What post number? Take a look at #5, 6 and 7 for a good sampling.
