Your thoughts?

I Twittered about this yesterday, but if your church still has "baptist" in it's public name, this should give you reason to re-think that.
I'm just sayin'... as the press reports stories like this (and the other one today about the Fort Worth church), many people you are trying to reach will associate you with these 'baptists'.

He’s provocative because that’s how he and his “church” support themselves. They provoke people and then sue them when they react. The have filed and settled literally thousands of lawsuits against cities, companies and individuals for reacting to their provocations.
I don’t know if he really believes the hate he spews or if it’s just become an easy way to “earn” a living. From what I understand his “church” consists entirely of his immediate and extended family.

For some weird reason I came across this video the day that Tim Russert passed away. Very, very disturbing.
I agree Todd. It’s time for the Baptists to change their name.
An even more disturbing fact? They operate a website entitled ... PriestsRapeBoys.com

Will he go to heaven? Do his works say anything about his faith?
If a Christian can be so full of hate, how can we, with a straight face, claim that it is a better way of life?

I thought the metrosexual bit was quite funny. I was thinking while watching that he makes fun of Arminians and uses words like ‘jackass’. Does that make him part of the Reformed emerging church crowd? Sure sounds hip and relevant to me…
...
Seriously though, this is why Catholicism is awesome. Someone goes this far off from Christ’s love, they can get excommunicated.

All I have to say is THANK GOD that my Savior has grace. Because I guarantee that even this guy that’s on this video, espousing the destruction of others for the trangressions that they have made is something less than perfect. It would be an interesting day to say the least if the judgment that comes forth from his mouth were suddenly turned against him, allowing him to see through a mirror of the almighty that judgment doesn’t belong in the hands of the imperfect (AKA - every last one of us).

Daniel,
Glad you saw the humor. I think mocking and sarcasm is a good response to videos like. And yeah you are right he was blasting Armenians and cussing so he may fit into the emerging crowd after all!
