Just got a really good tip that Fox News (the national one) will be running with the "I Hate Victory Family Church - The Devil" story.
The local affiliate (Fox 4 . . . . News) ran the story yesterday so maybe we'll see it on the flagship network for all things conservative. The No Spin Zone perhaps?
Edit: Still waiting to see it on Fox, but it has become an official AP story which means it will be all over the country.
Edit: This Google news search I created should catch all the stories.

I'm trying to figure out how the hell this is newsworthy.
get it... how the hell... oh nevermind.
If Decatur makes Faux News, especially if it's on Billo, the wing nuts will be orgasmic. Maybe then they'll relax and chill a little.
Annie, I couldn't agree more. How is this newsworthy?
Here's an interesting analogy. When Cokes were 7 oz. and kind of a special once in a while thing they seemed to taste better and even if it wasn't especially beneficial to your health, drinking it wasn't thought to be bad for you. Fast forward to today, a mere 50 years later and the same innocuous thing , a Coke ,is ubiquitous, taken in excess to the point of desensitivation, even in spite of the negative impact on us. Think about 7 oz. newscasts taken with moderation compared with todays saturation coverage. We have spiraled into an orgee of news consumption to the point of THIS IDIOTIC PIECE OF TRIVIA distracting us from what is unquestionably more important things that we should be focused on. Honestly, why are we so bent on excess?
I saw that pastor on TV last night, and lil' Fox was saying something about how his "visitor" count went up. All I want to know, is where the hell the Devil is.
THE TICKET talked about this sign during the 6 o'clock hour....so this MUST be national news.
COPELAND may have a little Wise County competition...
Could become a battle of the churches. Copeland can get a billboard that says "I Hate Copeland Ministries Even More Than Family Victory Church."
SATAN
or for variation:
LUCIFER
Satan, Lucifer, Beezlebub....call me what you may but I do not hate churches or their members! This is where I get most of my souls....In church you have the two worst kinds of people, the weak, and those who prey on the weak!
Does Jesus hate Satan?
I have to agree with the devil in that church is one of the BEST of hunting grounds for Satan. Throughout history, RELIGION has done MORE to deny humans access to God than has Satan. RELIGION is responsible for the killing of MORE humans "in the name of God" than any other cause. Keep in mind, one of the most COMMON of claims of RELIGION is that a person MUST buy into [insert religion of choice] to KNOW God. Consider for a moment that RELIGION is WRONG and the TRUE way to God is for each person to find their own path through PERSONAL prayer.
"Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by rulers as useful." ~Seneca
Mzchief, if you have indeed manufactured your own personal god as you advocate, then when you pray to your god just exactly what do you call him/her???

God!
todays big churches have pews filled with people who are there for apperances sake we should do as the lord says and be kind and help one another but not as many people do that now adays and it seems hat every time i go to one of these churches they preach bout giving them money like it is a bussiness and i end with this how do they know if satan hates them or not do they converse regularly makes you wonder if they didnot talk to satan then they may be lying
Mzguided strikes again! Your embrace of many paths to God is heresy and completely false. There is but one path to God---Jesus Christ. The truth is the truth, and although JC has been rejected for centuries now, the truth remains unchanged and unwavering. Your promotion of many paths to God is simply another example of man-made religion that you so abhor.
Yet another misguided attempt to mock God and Jesus by the people who don't know much about the Lord...
People, it's true, there are a lot of people that go to church for appearance sake, but there are also a zillion people who go to church because they love the Lord, and the Bible says to "not forsake the assembling of yourselves together." We worship as a church, a corporate body, under the spiritual guidance of a pastor. If he God? No, of course not. In our church where I go, the pastor has a profound saying: "This isn't a trophy case, it's a hospital."
And the money thing: God says in the Bible for Christians to give at least a tenth of everything they own to Him. Traditionally that is done through the local church. At our church, we don't beat people over the head to give. We don't have to. People give willingly. Also,, first-time visitors are told NOT to give. We give to the Lord because He wants us to and because we love him. In turn, He gives us blessings throughout our lives.
I guess what I'm trying to say is this: QUIT PAINTING ALL CHURCHES WITH SUCH A BROAD BRUSH! Are we Christians on here ridiculing you for your beliefs? NO! Then stop trying to make yourselves look superior (attn: mzchief) by taking the easy stab at something a lot of people don't understand.
anonybitch 4:56 Says who? Your big book of myths and fables that was written by old men with personal agendas?? You bitches are still dumbasses.

Why should I be expected to be LESS offended by what I consider to be nothing short of a HEINOUS MISREPRESENTATION of God by Christianity/Islam/Judaism and the like than YOU are by MY understanding of God?
Even though various RELIGIONS have hijacked God and whereby their doctrines they DECLARE their RELIGION and their RELIGION alone represents God because of their RELIGION'S sacred myths and fables, does NOT make their declaration the TRUTH.
If you HONESTLY believe that MY testimony of FAITH in God is an attempt to "look superior" then what MUST we conclude about YOUR testimony of FAITH in "the Lord" and RELIGION?
From 5:18...
Mzchief:
First of all, you're correct, and I am sorry I judged you. The Bible says not to judge others, and if I did that, I'm sorry.
I still don't believe that you can be as much of a Christian as you proclaim while denying the Bible (the "big book of myths and fables", as you call it) and ridiculing/judging Christianity.
It' funny: I saw a portion of a West Wing episode where Josh says "Islamic Extremism is to Islam what the KKK is to Christianity." That got me to thinking: You equate all Christianity with extremism, with no room for anything else. You see all Christians (Jesus-believing, church-going, etc.) as nuts, extremists, etc.
mzchief, what is God to you? Is He a being, a tree, a cloud? Does He instruct you personally by voice, messages in your Alpha-bits, or what? We as Christians say He talks to us through the Bible as well as through the Holy Spirit.
To 5:18/8:55...
I am NOT a Christian and have NEVER claimed to be Christian.
However, YOU have proved a point about Christians that is MORE than just a wee bit annoying. YOU incorrectly assumed that because I BELIEVE in God I HAD to be Christian.
NEWSFLASH...A person who has FAITH in GOD is not REQUIRED to have FAITH in RELIGION.
I do believe the Holy Bible, Torah, Qur'an, Book of Mormon and their ilk to be NOTHING more than their respective RELIGION'S Big Book of Myths and Fables authored by men with agendas.
Due to the disengenuity of your question regarding what is God to ME I will keep it brief and simple so that even someone of your intellect might comprehend my answer. ALL anyone who wants to know God need do is look within, pray and behave as would God. Incidentally, God is NOT jealous, wrathful, or vengeful. Those are HUMAN emotions and HUMAN shortcomings. God is ABOVE such pettiness.
As for your apology to ME; I accept it in the same manner and sincerity with which it was granted to me.
Now we have it straight from her lips---Mzchief believes she is God!
Her illuminating quote "All anyone who wants to know God need to do is look within, pray, and behave as would God."
Thanks, Mz for finally letting all of us know who you truly are.
It APPEARS as though wordkyle has taken to commenting anonymously.
Please note in my comment at 11:50 that I stated that all ANYONE who wishes to know God need do is look within, pray and behave as would God.

Nope, I'm not wordkyle. I just post anonymously because I haven't taken the time to "sign up" or whatever...

My comment at 9:53 was addressing the anonymous comment at 9:40.
Incidentally, there is NO requirement to register with Blogger to use an alias just click "other" rather than anonymous and type in an alias you wish to use to post a comment. It does make it MUCH easier to follow a thread when people use an alias to post THEIR comment. When MOST of the comment authors are listed as anonymous it appears as though anonymous is psychotic. *LOL*
Broad Brush Hell! A 60 inch paint roller would not be enough for most of you Right-Wing Christian Types that have to show a Republican Party Voting Card to stay in the Church. That is, after the Collection Plate has made it's Rounds. Keep Christian Conservative Values up Front, now.
However, the the 60 inch Paint Roller could be blessed, and become a Holy Roller.
