America so needs the orthodox (small ‘O’) Christian religion. Jumping up and down in church on Sunday and watching movies on how the apocalypse will unfold in movie theater like churches is not hacking it.
I agree.
Many of the youth groups out there aren’t even doing that though (or even showing movies on rapture).
We had a youth group where the leader was not always around and the kids would hide in the broom closet and make out.
This is also the same group that played “Texas Hold’em” on Wednesday nights because goodness knows that they needed “chill time” from the hard week of studies. “Attendance was too inconsistent for a Bible study”. Just as well, because when there were Bible studies-it turned into a litany of guided imagery exercises or pro-socialism discussions.
Just how many times can a youth group watch the movie “Signs” anyway? Answer: A LOT.
Oh yeah...we left, but not soon enough.
