Quote:You have to go through actual interviews to get into a church??The interview is for a possiable teaching position.
Quote:Wow, they [the churches] have some awfully bloated opinions on their relevance and worth in the world, don't they?They are simply being faithful to their understanding of the bible.
Quote:I wouldn't tell them you consort with atheists. They'll probably kick you out on your ass almost instantly. Churches are awfully quick to judge despite the teachings of their messiah telling people to never do that. Proof: You have to go through an interview, which is essentially a judgment panel.The command is "Judge not lest you be judged in the same way you judge others." Meaning whatever you use to judge other people that standard will be used to judge you. The command is not: "Don't judge." The command is: "Don't be a hipocrite."
Quote:But hey, I won't say you shouldn't use anything here for said interview; by all means, cherry-pick that which works for you and that which does not...er...I mean...I am sure you'll be completely fair and unbiased about what you've read and engaged in here.If I was looking to do this dishonestly then why would I ask to use any of this above board?
Ohh, I gotcha. That makes it a little more understandable, at least. I thought they were basically stating "you wanna pray with us? THEN PROVE YOU ARE WORTHY." XD That shit had me dumbstruck.
