That’s not religion. That’s unstable crazy pretending to be religion.
It’s rather difficult to tell the difference sometimes.
SABRINA LOWE: We actually went outside and started commanding the winds because God had given us authority over the winds - the airways. And we just began to command this storm not to hit our area. We - we spoke to the storm and said, go to unpopulated places. It did exactly what we said to do because God gave us the authority to do that.
Well, if it’s just one person doing the crazy, it’s pretty easy. It’s when you get whole groups of people doing the same thing where it gets hard to tell the difference. That was one person acting on her own, so I’ll say that crazy covers it. ![]()
And then you run into was it still stupid because it worked?
Do I need to point out the assumption there? Did putting on my coat fix the burst pipe in my yard?
Shh, no logic is allowed when you are talking to people that control the wind!
My mam’s local priest (they live near a convent, so I’m not really sure which one is their local one and which are visiting the nunnery) tried to command the floodwater to go away because it was spoiling the blessed spring where he collects fontwater.
The well, spring, a few small shrubs and half the hillside collapsed into the flood later that night.
Swings and roundabouts. God can only look after one flood at a time, it seems.
Two crass comments: why can’t he just turn wine to water? and… Not only does their shit not stink, the city should be grateful for taking it.
And he’s really gone off the rails…
He got one item right, anyway. A lot of people seem surprised to hear that gay men have testicles.
This is actually hilarious.
I love how the Church still thinks it’s some sort of special thing, not just another club for the special-friend society.
Enshrined in law that it’s a special thing actually. More in Europe than in America, at least we don’t still have national religions here. Hell, Denmark is like 90% one religion on paper isn’t it?
Not for lack of trying though.
Mostly by proclamation. Loudly and often.
You couldn’t get two politicians to agree on one long enough for it to happen.
Plenty of politicians insist that the US is a Christian nation. I haven’t heard of anyone insisting that it was founded on any other religion.
Which Christian religion? Hell, you can’t get two Baptists to agree on something, forget all the flavors of evangelicals.
There’s only one Christian religion. There are many denominations.
You can’t make this crap up.
Considering that, in the Apocrypha and some of the more obscure Jewish writings, numerology was created by one of the Grigori (the fallen angels), this guy really needs to check his sources.
And I am getting sick of having to point out that they are not “conspiracy theories”. They are hypotheses, not theories.
Because inclusion, tolerance, and compassion are not conducive to “moral” living, the Catholic Church is threatening to start an organization that is an “alternative” to Girl Scouts.
WAGGGS frequently advocates for these positions on a global stage, in the name of its 10 million members. For example, WAGGGS is currently advocating that “any goal on health in the Post-2015 development agenda should include the specific needs of girls and young women with a particular emphasis on delivering confidential and nonjudgmental sexual and reproductive health information and services to all” (See pg. 18 of WAGGGS’ The World We Want for Girls Beyond 2015). Once again, we see “reproductive” as code language; these groups are really advocating for access to abortion and birth control.
Yes, we know how much Yahweh hates the idea that women should be able to determine when their vagina should be occupied.
This is interesting.
Hey look, another person judging a group of people by the actions of some of them, and their perceptions of who stands for all of them. I think the definition in their head of an evangelical christian is anyone christian that is doing something they don’t like.
Granted, there are plenty of assholes out there hiding behind religion, and he does make the same comments about Islam and Catholics, but Jerry Falwell is not my religious leader. The defining of a group by the worst people in it by an outsider doesn’t mean crap. What he said applies to the people who did it, and that’s it.
It’s like this guy is complaining about pitbulls biting people, and saying they all do it, and including rottweilers, spaniels, and some cats. And then saying Hitler is their fault.
