One wonders, whatever happened to purity? he asked in the sermon. Whatever happened to that? Whatever happened to the days when girls said, Im not going to be touched by every guy? Im not going to walk down the aisle like a filthy dishrag on my wedding day. Whatever happened to that day?
He insisted he meant no offense to anyone who had sinned, but he complained about perceived criticism of a recent purity pledge that drew the participation of hundreds of teens at his church.
I dont want to sound weird tonight, (but) theres a reason when ladies come up here to sing that the rule, if you want to use it, the standard I dont care what you call it, call it legalism, call it control I dont care what you call it, there is a standard in this church that the dresses are going to come down to the knee when a lady stands up here, Chappell said.

How about women like that?
Now, that's conundrum.

AverageJoe90
(10,745 posts)But, sadly, way too many of these Fundies display a hypocrisy that could be nothing else but sexist, and even misogynist, in nature.....in their minds, it's so much worse when a woman does it.
I really don't have a problem with churches promoting traditional sexual values if that's what their denomination believes. But I do have a problem with unequal application of those rules.
If we're going to call people filthy rags, then we should call men filthy rags as well.
Preacher ought to answer that

(11,417 posts)I think it is projection or as Freud said it is a reaction formation.
They fear something in their own personalities so they condemn it in others.

(16,254 posts)later charged with sexual abuse? Boys, girls, women, dogs. His name will probably pop up in the news one day and it won't be pretty.
They are projecting their bad personality traits (drooling while ogling) onto women so they don't have to feel guilty. It's always someone else's fault with these "good old boys" and they want to keep it that way.

What is Jebus wearing on the cross? Almost nothing. I guess the flesh of men is okay. Men who can't control their penises should shut the fuck up.

If he didn't want to sound weird, he probably should have just not opened his gob. Organized religions are strange creatures. Might as well hit your head with a board.

Pastor says I need to know not things about those things and are a 'no no'. Makes me want to have naughty thoughts that Jesus would weep about and does since he already knows about my naughty bits and alone time.
MADem
(135,425 posts)Loaves and Fishes/Water into Wine raves! I'll be he showed off a kneecap on occasion, himself!!!
Of all of the Christians, I think Jesus was the nicest of the bunch. He threw great parties with plenty of food, he healed the sick, he didn't judge-- he was like an EMT whose ambulance was half food truck!
What's not to like about a guy like that? Pity some of his followers are such jerks!

And I have the right to ignore him.

(17,652 posts)and your description is dead on! Empty strip malls one after another, no happy place (trees, bookstores, non-chain coffee shop) to be found. 20th century bleak, bleaky bleaky bleak. Bleak. A supergravity of depression and ruin. An all you can eat restaraunt with immense lines of people lining up like pigs in a chute for cafeteria food. I wonder what the suicide rate is.
Anyway, this is my fave DU thread in a while!
