Female VICAR causes stir with obscene car sticker
The Daily Mail ^ | 8 August 2013 | Suzannah Hills

Posted on 08/08/2013 2:43:57 PM PDT by MarkBsnr

A female CofE vicar yesterday insisted she has not sinned against God by putting an obscene bumper sticker reading 'WTFWJD' on the back of her car.

The Reverend Alice Goodman stuck the sticker, standing for ‘What The F*** Would Jesus Do?', on the back of her red Subaru Legacy - sparking outrage from members of her parish.

But the Reverend insists the sticker is harmless and even the former Archbishop of Canterbury Dr Rowan Williams was happy to accept a lift in her car in the past.

The sign - a play on the Christian motto ‘What Would Jesus Do?’ - has offended some of the worshippers in the Fulbourn and Wilbrahams parish in Cambridgeshire where Dr. Goodman is the rector.

But the American-born vicar, 54, claimed she was simply using an Old English word.

She said: 'F*** is not a blasphemy, it’s a vulgarity, an Old English word.

How low has the Church of England sunk? How far away from Christianity have they strayed? Female vicars posting bumper stickers like this on their cars. And the former Archbishop of Canterbury 'approves'.

WWMDD? What would Mad Dawg do? I shall knock and see if he is home.

Wonder if she’d use this phrase if the “F” stood for “Female”.

You lose (apparently).

The truth is a lot more interesting, though.

:: not a blasphemy, it’s a vulgarity ::

Well. then it’s OK. XPians, in general, can use vulgar language -in contradiction to historical teachings- because it isn’t “blasphemy”.

Modern “liberalism” is a mental disease.

I’m less offended by the suggestive obscene language on her bumper sticker than by the fake fudgepacker marriages blessed in her fake church.

“See this collar? It means, ‘don’t argue with she-who-must-be-obeyed’.” Charming.

abstain from any appearance of evil.

No brainer if you are a Christian.

She is.

I went to the pic at the site.

Can't say I'm surprised.

I used to have a bumper sticker on the back of my Tahoe that raised some eyebrows.

My thoughts, even before scrolling down to the caption.

I am not so sure.

She is 54, he is 81.

He’s a damn poet.

Plus I saw a picture of her wearing the jeans and the large belt buckle belt lesbians like to wear.

Plus I am currently checking for kids, which I would not be surprised if she doesn’t have any.

Further every lesbian I have known that dresses male/butch has a foul mouth and swears more than I do. Her exclaiming it’s vulgar, not blashpemy, so it’s totally fine, is ridiculous. I wonder if she peppers her “sermons” with the f-word because it’s just an old english vulgarity.

I am still convinced I’d win the bet.

This is par for the course for these Devil worshipers.

And that is EXACTLY what they are.
