Church Folks

This is something I as well as many others encounter on a weekly (or as close to weekly as possible) basis. It's worth noting that people in the Church are some of the worst on the planet, because many of them feel that they can:
  • Say whatever they want, anytime (called "being honest") they want in the name of "truth"
  • Get into other peoples' business while throwing in their 2 cents worth in there, because they care about them so much
  • Gossip about other folks in their pursuit of the "true story"
  • Look down their noses in judgment at others, taking time daily to remind other folks of past sins (condemning the person) to make themselves feel better about their own shortcomings
But also many of these people pretty much walk around with a strong sense of superiority over others, and don't hesitate to let you know you're less than they and are more in need in prayer than they are.

Exhibit A:

What some Christians act like...

The funny thing about these folks is that though they can tell you (amazingly little) about their sins, they appear to have the authority to sentence you to Hell and act like God will never forgive you for yours when you open up to them in confidence that they won't judge you! Like all the things you do to try to make amends for any transgressions is for nothing because since they don't forgive you, then God won't either. Don't even bother mentioning that last week, you saw them sinning their now-perfect soul out at that party...

Exhibit B:



What you might find your typical faithful church goer doing a few hours before church starts

The other week, after I had sent someone a friends request on Tagged, she responded that while she'd love to accept my friends' request, she couldn't because my page had "pornography" on it!

Exhibit C:



Didn't you know? Pictures of Holly leaves is the new porn!

Funny thing about it is that she had up as her main picture a pic of herself with her cleavage all out but for some reason, I'm the one with porn all over my page! I was gonna show you what I mean, but she changed her pic, and as usual, her page was set to private. I was gonna let it pass, but I decided to pursue it after seeing things church-going folks say and do to other folks and I couldn't ignore it anymore. I'm sure that God's glad to have people like her to send folks like me to Hell for Him so He doesn't have to have the Apocalypse, the Battle of Armageddon, and that whole thing about casting Satan into the bottomless pit!
