How do you cope with behavior like this?

That was hard to watch, but I'm glad you posted that, too. What is wrong with these people? I used to be a Christian, even a few months after I came out as gay, but now I feel much better as an atheist. Do these people honestly ENJOY the pain that comes with the strictness of religion? I don't believe for one minute they do. I think they're just scared that if they slip up, they'll burn forever, which isn't true. To some extent, I even feel sorry for them that they believe that. :redface:

I watched the videos...Giving one more reason to question fundamental Christianity.I did make an interesting observation about their "preacher". I didn't see a bible anywhere. In his hand or on the pulpit.In his sermon or speach? I didn't here him read a verse in reference to his subject or for that matter have any Bible basis for any of his twisted conversation.

What is misleading here is in one breathe he is professing to be a pastor, a representative of God. These people actually believe he is a Man of God and will follow him no matter what. Christianity the very faith he professes will hold him accountable for his deception. And the same faith will hold the people accountable for believing the lie AND BRINGING THEIR SMALL INNOCENT CHILDREN IN AS WELL. That to me is the saddest part of all. Adults should have ahhh, the suave to make right choices.but the children are not even given the chance to developbalenced value system.
