Not a terribly violent man myself, but there are times…

I mean, it is very brave of him to confess to his congregation that he struggles with fantasies of hurting children.
I assume that the part of the clip that was cut off was him saying “which is why I am resigning my position and checking in to a residential treatment facility.” /s

The quote is a horrible thing for anyone to say, but it’s exponentially worse coming from a person who claims to represent someone who urged his followers to “love thy neighbor as thyself.” That man has no business being a priest.

Organized religion is a tool of control, and when they see people they cannot control the response is not empathy, understanding, or communication. But violence and hate.

Boys/men have been painting their nails for decades. A couple of my paintball friends did back in the day.
I’ve seen more younger kids paint their nails/have them painted. I am 100% sure I would have wanted to do this as a kid. I probably asked for this as a kid, but my mom said no. I loved colors and i liked when my moms nails were painted.
Penn Gillette paints his pinky as a tribute to his mom.
That said, I’ve never painted them. Maybe if I ever go to a concert again and get half way dressed up I will.
This pastor is leading his flock astray with the hateful commentary.

I painted my nails during my Goth/Industrial phase. Then stopped. Then had a daughter who proceeded to paint my nails. Never said no, and I displayed them in public proudly.
There’re bigger things, and frankly more interesting things to worry about than who paints their nails.

“I seen…” So the pastor is not only a really intolerant non-Christian bigot with violent tendencies, he’s also painfully unaware of the basic rules of grammar.

Alas, several “Christian” religions have no requirements to be a pastor other than to say “God has called me to do this” and a few don’t even require that. “I am a pastor of this church I just invented.” Dude sounds like the latter type, though I can’t be arsed to look into it further.
