Americans are fucking weird sometimes

[–] motor_spirit@lemmy.world 32 points 3 months ago (2 children)

yes, but globally, christians and many other 'worshippers' are fucking idiots every day

I expect nonsensical cringe from all of them, and they continue to deliver with headlines weekly

Sure, but American christians just take it to a whole 'nother level.

Edit: just to prove my point, this was apparently taken in the James River Church in Missouri:

They've upgraded since I was a kid. They used to rip phone books in half and tell me their god could give me that strength.

Did you go to the Gemstone's church?

[–] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

I love that show. It does remind me of when my tiny weird little church would go to special events at the closest weird mega church.

[–] hydroptic@sopuli.xyz 6 points 3 months ago (1 children)

They have tanks in WWE?!

[–] Anticorp@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

[–] aeronmelon@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago

I'm enrolled in the wrong church then!

You know, converting to christianity might not be such a bad idea after all!

For real. Fuck the Stations of the Cross, this is the pageantry that was clearly what Jesus was all about.

They do take it to the HNL.

Hi. Mainline Protestant here. You can make fun of us all you want for any of our quirky liturgical traditions. But even I don't get whatever the hell shenanigans the Pentecostals are up to in one of the other replies to your comment. They are a ...uh... interesting bunch.

Lol there's always a weirder fish out there huh. I'll have to check this out

[–] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 44 points 3 months ago

Maranatha, we long for your nuggies. Maranatha, we long for your sauce.

Jesus Christ, save me from your followers.

Amen
