Having spent a lot of time with the East Tennessee redneck hillbilly versions of Southern Baptist's and Church of gawd, I witnessed several that would be hard to beat.
I've seen one very pushy asshole "pillar of the church" threaten to pummel an octogenarian pastor because he wouldn't repent and expel a divorcée from the choir.
Reread that slowly and let it sink in. He got into a physical tussle with the pastor on a Sunday night in the middle of the sermon threatening to beat a very old man because he wouldn't throw out a woman who dared go out on a date after her divorce was final.
I've seen a illiterate man dance around the pulpit telling the story that Sampson "whipped the Philistines' asses" with a bone.
I've also seen a whole church break down into "speaking in tongues" after a foot washing service. DAMN that was creepy!
