They played in a pushup and jock,
And sometimes they twerked
At the organ (which worked...
Just ask Hans Magdalena and flock:
Thirteen crumb-crunchers, all named "Barack").

#7  I knew which way church was going back when it was being infested faux ecclesiastical sophistry, Bunco and Amwayâ„¢.

No point in serving some trustee approved idea of truth. Better to go it alone.

Our Family and extend family groups quit the UNITED Methodist for similar reasons.

My Uncles literately built our original local Methodist church in 1940's and help build the New Brick one in 1970's also. Back then the preachers actually worked a real job for income and the Wed & Sunday donations were for only Church related issues.

The family as a group cease attendance when it went UNITED Methodist, after learning UM decided to avoid selective bible passages and church norms to go New Age for wider attendance collection($$$).

In other words, The UM went Business P&L, instead of GOD'S word for 2000+ years. The preachers no longer work real jobs and now have a UM retirement.

#3  Not really NN2N1. The Lutheran Church has a lot of gay/gender issues. Splits in the Church have resulted. My family left because of pro-gay decisions in our synod.
