CHARLOTTE, N.C. - Thieves broke into Caldwell Presbyterian Church on East Fifth Street in Charlotte late Wednesday and vandalized a painting with Scripture that targets homosexuality.

Church members called it a personal attack on the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community.

The church embraces its call to be a diverse, progressive and mission-oriented congregation centered on justice and advocacy, according to its website.

Maybe the “church” ought to embrace Christianity a little more and “justice and advocacy” — especially where the latter is just a mask for sexual perversion — a little less.

Baloney meter is going off. Too focused and intentional.

Probably a hoax. But if true, it’s a bad idea.

Rom 12:19 Dearly beloved, avenge not yourselves, but rather give place unto wrath: for it is written, Vengeance is mine; I will repay, saith the Lord.

And He most certainly WILL repay their heresy. Eternally and mercilessly.

Article says that they stole "items from the coffee shop". Food, likely.

My bet? (90%) Bored teenagers. Likely attend (read: get dragged to) the church by a relative.

2nd guess (9%)= hoax. But hoaxers wouldn't have stolen anything. Or, would have stolen/broken anything that had value to homosexuals.

3rd guess (1% or less) = "hate" crime. But again, someone with real malice would have done more damage, or stolen\destroyed everything not nailed down.

But, by all means, the media should scream "HATE CRIME" at the top of their lungs, before all of the facts come in. Because homophobia.

I used to like Charlotte Church. Now this:

“Your staff have asked me to sing at your inauguration,” the Welsh singer tweeted to Trump early Tuesday morning, “a simple Internet search would show I think you’re a tyrant. Bye.” Her message was followed by four poop emoji.

So Jim doesn’t ban me for my wording. I will let Ann Coulter say what my feelings are:

“At this point, any claim of “hate” directed at Muslims, blacks, gays or Hispanics by Trump supporters should be treated like a UFO sighting: presumed false, unless documented with irrefutable evidence.”

I call hoax.

Really, someone THAT "Bible literate" to even know what Corinthians actually says.

They leave such a "horrible" quote, yet just steal from the coffee bar, and don't actually damage anything?

Finally, someone MUST attend this so-called church to know that they are super-pro-LGBT.

"Bored teenagers" are.... bored.

They wouldn't put this much "thought" into anything.

The main suspect HAS to be the lesbian "minister" or her "wife".

I'll lay money on it.
