What is it with Churches these days?

They’re all losing their minds.

Not all of course, but many.

* Church of England suggests offering transgender Christians re-christenings *

Christenings are secular BS, in no way equivalent to Baptism...

So, when you remove and rearrange body parts you get a new soul?

Irrelevant, most people in England are already either atheist or Muslim.

Each Friday night after work, Bubba would fire up his outdoor grill and cook venison steak. But all of Bubba’s neighbors were Catholic, and since it was Lent, they were forbidden from eating red meat on Friday. 

The delicious aroma from the grilled venison steaks was causing such a problem for the Catholic faithful that they finally talked to their priest. 

The priest came to visit Bubba and suggested that he become a Catholic.

After several classes and much study, Bubba attended Mass. The priest sprinkled holy water over him and said, “You were born a Baptist and raised as a Baptist, but now you are Catholic.”

Bubba’s neighbors were greatly relieved, until Friday night arrived and the wonderful aroma of grilled venison filled the neighborhood. The priest was called immediately by the neighbors.

As the priest rushed into Bubba’s yard, clutching a rosary and prepared to scold him, he stopped and watched in amazement.

There stood Bubba, clutching a small bottle of holy water, which he carefully sprinkled over the grilling meat while chanting, “You wuz born a deer, you wuz raised a deer, but now you are a catfish.”

Why don’t they just have a pride parade and bathe in others bodily fluids?
They’ve made it pretty clear they don’t want to follow the religion or church teachings so, why bother pretending to need their approval?

Isn’t the soul that is baptized? This is what happens when you continually change your doctrine to suit the times instead of trying to lead souls to heaven. Sad.

Time for the Anglican communion to cut off the gangrenous CofE and the US Episcopalian churches. Declare that whatever they call themselves, they are *not* Anglican any more.

Makes me want to puke that people even think this stupidly, much less unBiblically.
