For starters, his bank has demanded that he immediately repay the church’s mortgage balance, and his insurance company cancelled the church’s policy.
Yeah, but honestly, that probably has little to do with taking a moral stand against the pastor's actions. If this thing had gone forward, I guarantee you somebody would have torched that church building as soon as the police left. Bank loses their collateral, and the insurance company has to pay out.

But wouldn't it be an "act of god"? :bolt:

Pico and ME 09-10-2010 10:56 PM

lol !!

Wait.. so, the burning down of the church due to the Pastors ridiculous actions, is really just Gods way of telling him to shut the fuck up already.

Priceless.

LOL-- ever since our local feature "touchdown Jesus" got zapped by lightning, I've begun to believe that He really does take an interest in day-to-day things, at least from the aspect of having a sense of humor.

Oh, absolutely. Banks and insurance companies don't take moral stands... unless it helps the bottom line.

Qu'ran? I thought we were burning Korans. I feel cheated.

xoxoxoBruce 09-12-2010 10:45 PM

Moslem, Muslim, Koran, Qu'ran, let's call the whole thing off.

Has the idiot in Queensland smoking pages of the Bible and the Koran made world news yet?

You know he's a lecturer at QUT don't you?

What a tool!

Every time I see this thread title I think it says 'Burn a Korean Day'.

No, but from my experience it is what they understand best.
