I often wonder why I find most milquetoast Christianity disgusting;

I do think I am crazy, but the people who are into MegaChurch's, those people seem OK with casual Satanism

We have one of those megachurches in Central Ohio, the "World Harvest Church by Rod Parsley."

Used to work with a guy at Lucent that original studied the ministry and got asked to leave for, as he put it, "asking the hard questions they didn't want to answer." Asked him about that place and he just said "'ol Rod just keeps getting richer and richer, doesn't he?" Wouldn't say anything else about it.

The pastor (left) said he and his wife, Christina Peternel (right), had been 'unwise but not sinful' in filming themselves having sex.

Their son gets arrested on CP charges, the media senses a feeding frenzy and the paster tosses this gem out there? Game over.

Believe it is standard practice when dealing with the media to NOT insert your foot/feet in your mouth when talking with them. Maybe carry a big towel to stuff in there instead so no one can understand you? Not too bright.

Hope he has other marketable skills.

I would guess this is FUD to obscure the fact that the apple often doesn't fall far from the tree.

"But there is no union between the Prince of light and the prince of darkness, and there can be no union between their followers. When Christians consented to unite with those who were but half converted from paganism, they entered upon a path which led further and further from the truth. Satan exulted that he had succeeded in deceiving so large a number of the followers of Christ. He then brought his power to bear more fully upon these, and inspired them to persecute those who remained true to God. None understood so well how to oppose the true Christian faith as did those who had once been its defenders; and these apostate Christians, uniting with their half-pagan companions, directed their warfare against the most essential features of the doctrines of Christ." [pp.36-37]
