Rather interesting that it is viewed as "OK" by some to invite non-Christians to a community Christian worship service. I wouldn't be surprised to see it go one step further in the future and have a Witch "call corners" before prayer time.

what is the freakin point of a snide comment like that? - does it edify him in any way whatsoever -

a number of you calvinists have been mercilous towards vernon this week and I'm damned sick and tired of it -

Leave the John F'n Kerry guy alone

if it keeps up - I'll friggin mash the button like you havent seen

She is UMC too. Can she not voice her concerns about a trend in worship pushed by the liberals? It wasn't too long about that the Episcpalians would have been shocked to see a homosexual elevated to Bishop. But, hey, if you feel itching to "friggin mash the button" as you so eloquenty put it, then feel free.

Stop whining.

You don't think Witchcraft is in the UMC? You better wake up and smell the coffee bud.

Rev, this is a debate. No name-calling. But plenty of colorful illustrations.

You cannot imagine the arguments I had when I was on your side of this disagreement. I railed, argued, criticized, rebuked, scorned and dismissed the Calvinist perspective -- until one day when I dropped to my knees in blessed relief, finally spent of my error and filled with the knowledge that...

Salvation is of the Lord.

Vern can handle himself. He's a pastor, isn't he? If he needs defending, his side is REALLY in trouble.

Thanks, my friend, but it is o.k. I've met a lot of people in the past 40 years, but never anything quite like this. It is amazing how we who call ourselves followers of Jesus Christ can be like this. God's grace is sufficient. Pray for them.
