My disagreement with a lot of Christian churches isn’t that they run around yelling “repent,” that sort of cliche is decades old and in the past.
Nowadays most churches don’t say “repent” on anything, and hold no moral values on anything that would cause pain in parishioners, like telling them to not divorce their spouses, to not have sex before marriage, to not get angry at their families, to forgive their husbands, etc., etc.
The few churches that DO tell their parishioners to repent do a good thing, in my opinion. My church tells people those sort of things, and they don’t yell it in that old-fashioned, hypnotic way that Baptists are popularly thought to have yelled “repent.”
Thanks for the ping, by the way...

You mean like John Hagee, who I happened to like btw. I like the fire and brimstone types, guess I like the hypnotic effect their screaming and yelling has on me.
