  • Re: Religion Thread: We Could Say a Prayer

    "This way to the egress."

    From his Wikipedia entry:

    Previously in 2016, Duplantis and fellow televangelist Kenneth Copeland defended their use of private jets as firstly, commercial planes were full of "demons" which would bog down their schedules with requests for prayers; and secondly, on a commercial airplane, Duplantis would not be able unbuckle his seat belt to speak to God standing up.

      Maybe he should have given up on Oil & Gas and gone into the ministry....

            Good Glory. From people who say claim to be Christians. Early Christians suffered real persecution, died for their beliefs, tried to live as Sweet Jesus taught them. Now 'Christians' whine about imagined slights, show not an iota of the fortitude real Christians did and shine their halos because they are challenging evil people. Jesus is probably up there doing a version of the face-palm-head-desk. That is plain embarrassing.

                  Are you referencing the Sweet Jesus ice cream shops that have been getting protested?

                    Wow. Just wow. These people have a truly warped idea of Christianity. They spend so much time obsessing about minutia they can't possibly have much time to open their hearts and do what Jesus was telling them to do- love your neighbor, care for the sick, widows and children.

                      I still want to see a radical Christianity where... I don't know... everyone acted like Christ.
