Way to go Bruce!

I miss your friend as well. I wish he was everywhere.

Wow. I like it. Reminds me my days on my twentys doing commercial art in a room full of artists every day I was the only atheist. Between Evangelists and Jehovah Witnesses at each others throats daily but I was their Satan. There was a Promotion and was offered to me before being open up to all in the group. I declined... I didn't wanted the extra responsibility. I was fine drawing, doing color separation and translating plus observing everybody's biz from my table made my day... I wanted to be there chilling, not driving around the city. Finally they gave the position to an evangelist idiot. He thought god choose him for the extra pay job. So he said so and told us about it. Going around in the company car taking and picking up our art for final approval from the customers... meeting datelines. There was even some money for clothes since he was our representative to the customers well, comes raining season... he drove the company car on a flooded street, stalling the engine and damaging the car. He got demoted... he, ha, he, ha. What an Idiot... the lord didn't cared for his devotion. He trashed the car!!!! They didn't fire him but they put him back to do paste up jobs. He said the Devil got envy of his goods and prosperity and the lord used him to teach the Devil a lesson.

Way to go!

There are those who feel being quiet, being neutral, being civil, always being polite and never getting involved, are virtues.

They are not.

Where would we be if thoSe people were in charge of leading the march on women's rights, LGBTQ+ rights, desegregation, humanitarian causes and unionizing workers (etcetera)?

When it comes to speaking out against what's wrong and speaking up for what's right, just standing by makes you part of the problem.

Love this guy!

The part on the sign about stoning the LAST pastor has to do with his being found to have hired prostitutes. Truly a sleazy “church”, if that is the right term for this disgusting group.

For the record, The Southern Baptist Convention has clearly worded resolutions that call for love and tolerance for all people. Baptists do think that homosexuality is a sin, but according to them sins are not to be judged by man but by God,

“RESOLVED, That we call on Southern Baptist churches to call sinners to repentance while ministering, encouraging, fostering hospitality, and extending Christlike love toward those brothers and sisters who experience same-sex attraction.”[last paragraph of resolution this year]

I don’t know how you can call anyone to repentance without making a judgment, but whatever. As an ex-Baptist it’s not my problem.

The Stefast Baptist Church is not a member of the SBC. It is part of a very small fringe hate group. Do not judge all Baptists by this one preacher.

Ha.. good for you

Got him

It still boggles my mind with how religious indoctrination can override logic, reasoning and critical thinking.

I like that he didn’t really engage with someone who clearly wasn’t in a place to understand or be genuine enough to have a true dialogue. Great post!

That pastor was overmatched!
