The victims were among a large group of people, at least 50 of whom were fighting, in the parking lot about 7:30 p.m. when the injuries occurred. All of the involved had just left a boxing match, which was held at the church's life center and was the cause of the melee, Sgt. Greg Smith said.

A great way to praise the Lord./s

One time I got hit in the head at a Baptist church and started talking in gibberish. True story.

I've heard of tough deacon's meetings at Baptist churches, but this has to be the worst!

Good call, in my haste to make a joke about speaking in tongues, I got my religios denominations confused.

I have seen and heard of fights in Baptist
Churches but never an organized boxing match.
All the others were spontaneous.

This may be the most poorly written news article I've ever seen.

"The victims were among a large group of people, at least 50 of whom were fighting, in the parking lot about 7:30 p.m. when the injuries occurred. All of the involved had just left a boxing match, which was held at the church's life center and was the cause of the melee, Sgt. Greg Smith said."

So let's see. There were 50 people fighting in the parking lot, including an SUV, who had attended the boxing match at the church and got so riled up it caused the SUV to attack the victims.

You have to admit--this is a liberal journalist's wet dream--a chance to take down boxing, SUV's, and the church in one shot.

No, first they give out gifts of tongues.

Are you sure that wasn't a city council meeting?
