I didn’t see the humor in it. Weird.

I wonder if he hangs out at the animal shelter and makes jokes when they put puppies to sleep.

I left the Methodist Church when I was in college during the early 1970’s.

Haven’t looked back.

I am amazed how much evil is escalating these days, especially among people like this leader in the Methodist Church. It makes me think of the passage in the Bible: Mathew 24:12

11”Many false prophets will arise and will mislead many. 12”Because lawlessness is increased, most people's love will grow cold.

Why do so many born-again Christians stay in the UMC?

From the outside looking in, it seems that many, if not most, of the large congregations are apostate. At the same time I know of small congregations full of traditional Methodists Wesley would recognize. Is that accurate?

All those draft dodgers who used the ministry to avoid Viet Nam are now the leaders of these left-wing churches. They are the radicals of the 60’s. Many don't even believe in God. And along the way, they have turned their churches into bastions of what they consider social and economic justice.

Just doing small group study in my home is becoming more and more appealing. Sad to see the earthly Church so sickly and divided—can’t help but think that Satan is gleefully grinning.

Bill Mefford should become the ‘poster child’ of every looney cause of the left. His sign is a blank canvas.

So pleased to see your comment...I’ve felt the same way for decades. When you try and explain that to the church militant their eyes start to glaze over.
