Making comments like that without reading the source material is really not wise.

:) Heavens, FRiend... you and metmom are competing for "ironic comment of the week", here! Did you miss my references to the source material, above, as well as my references to Presbyterian teaching (or lack of consensus, rather) on that very issue?

Making comments like that without reading the source material is really not wise... as a FReeper once said, rightly enough.

The guy had hands laid on him by two elders with no sanction from the church he claimed to be part of. He only did it to avoid taxes. The church he was a so called "pastor" in wasn't even part of the Presbyterian church. Look again.

"Mr. Hahn acknowledged these facts but offered an explanation. Trinity Presbyterian was an independent church with an average attendance of 30 when two of its elders laid hands on him in a private ceremony in 1982. He served as their Associate Pastor for about two years. The church remained independent until its closing in 1986. Mr. Hahn told me the reason for his private ceremony was because he did not feel he was very qualified to serve as an elder at age 26, but needed the ordination to take the pastor's exemption from Social Security."

He's in the same league as Al Sharpton or some other mail order pastor. He's fake, a fraud, a tax cheat, and appears after the dollar now.
