Ironic for someone who claims to follow a book that includes a story of a man who literally has a divine mandate not to cut his hair.

“I’m sorry, forgive me, he was the wrong kind of Christian.” Even though it’s the same god and the same book, albeit a slightly different version. Reminds me of the Judean People’s Front from The Life of Brian.

This is what the IFB crowd is concerned about. Not accuracy. Not truth. Just image and labels. It made no difference to Domelle or Wilkerson that the speakers were biblical literalists pushing Creationism because the way they did it wasn’t proper. Everything would have been just fine if fellow IFB member, with short hair and suits were the ones lying to everybody instead.

Sounds about like the Christians here that fornicate, sell drugs, women, stolen weapons, commit incest, CSA or show it to be done, then talk shit about the ones buying their products, lgbtq and the women they turn out and the ones they can’t.

Jesus wept.

How is is that after all these years, after seeing countless examples of religious lunacy, that I can still be surprised at the petty inanity of the religious. Apparently it's less a well of stupidity, and more like a never ending guyser of idiocy.

Worst second coming of Jesus ever. 1 star.

The dude is literally a doppelgänger for every western depiction of Jesus ever made, with the exception of the one “fixed” in Spain, but still not enough for these nut jobs.

I guess it's time to gawk at the Baptists for being caught up in their own discourse.
