I like to make $900k and say I am a non-profit. I do that.

    I give it about two years before it comes out that the Mars Hills guy was nailing choir boys before each service.

    Sure. Aren't all Christians the same? Don't be a twister.

    The CEO of Goodwill makes about $850,000 per yr. and they get away with paying the retards below third world wages. Greed is all around us, even in the supposedly altruistic places.

    One of my ex girlfriends made me go to a Mars Hill service with her years ago. I'll never forget the Christian Rock band that played. The chorus to one of their songs was "nothing but the blood of Jesus". Amazing.

    And people wonder why no one takes Christians in this country seriously. So many fake ass hypocrites out there.

    1. Pretty sure a substantial percentage of the country takes Christians seriously. ( see the make up of congress)
    2. The issue isn't just Christians.
    3. What's a fake hypocrite? Wouldn't that be a non hypocrite?

    1. Fair enough.
    2. Christianity is the religion in question in this thread. Did you miss that?
    3. Fake ass and hypocrite were meant to be two separate adjectives. Should have made that more clear. You can be a "fake ass" and a "hypocrite", you know.

    "And again I say unto you, It is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle, than for a rich man to enter into the kingdom of God."

    Matthew 19:24

    1. Agreed
    2. Whatever
    3. You needed a comma in there to have it make sense.
    4. What is that verse for?
    5.?
    6. Profit.

    2. I see what you were getting at before. There are plenty of other non-profits that pull this shit.
    3. ,
    4. Just putting it out there. I know, I know. Great cherry picking of bible verses as always.
    5. Agree
    6. One too many reasons.

    You can be a disease-ridden, drugged out degenerate fuckwad who reads Christopher Hitchens everyday and still go to a christian soup kitchen, get fed, tell them you hate God as you walk back to the park and shoot up again, and come back the next day and still get fed.

    Shit on their beliefs all you want, but that's American Christianity in a fucking nut shell.

    You left out the part where the priests give it to the alter boys in the 2 hole.

    I'm not here to shit on anyone's beliefs. Just wanted to point out the hypocrisy of someone who is supposed to be held to a higher moral code. Someone who's actions shit on the rest of Christians everywhere. Most Christians are good honest people. I cited that verse for that reason.

    We can talk about how Seattle media hates religion, particularly Christianity. Particularly when it's a church that doesn't support gays. However, two wrongs don't make a right. If this shit doesn't happen, those scumbags in the media have no ammunition.

    So it's possible for human beings charged with doing the right thing to actually do something abhorrent instead?

    You don't say.

    Great use of the same recycled joke that someone else already made earlier in the thread. Wow.

    Oh sorry. I skipped over part of the thread where you and Damone were having a pillow fight so maybe I missed it.

    Are you talking about Catholics? Or Christians?

    None the less, as a religion, Islam easily holds the molestation of children crown. It's not even close.

    NAMBLA
    Witty, but I think the Holy See wins on volume:

    The John Jay report tabulated a total of 4,392 priests and deacons in the U.S. against whom allegations of sexual abuse had been made.

    Around 1995, an undercover detective discovered that there were 1,100 people on the NAMBLA rolls.
