The term New Apostolic Reformation has submerged a lot since 2011, but she’s part of that too.

eta: They even have a group call Morningstar Ministries. Oooookay. I guess since Church of Satan was already taken…

Reminds me of something I saw many years ago on TV. Liberty Baptist College (that’s what it was called then) was having a praisefest for Jerry.

There was a just-pretty-enough just-blonde-enough bimbo with just enough Southern accent saying “I know I have a Piece which passeth understanding, and every day I thank Him for giving it to me.” Okay lady, let your freak flag fly.

There was also some geezer in a frock coat and backwards collar saying “God is in every class at Liberty Baptist. In Eschatology He is our Lord of Lords, our King of Kings. In Geology He is our Rock of Ages. In Astronomy He is our bright Morning Star.” And I said “Thou sayest it, not I.”

Same here. Not a lot of crowding and people giving each other space and wearing masks and using wipes.

Yeah, I’m sure that it’s a real collection of gentlemen and ladies. As the new apostles of God, they believe that they have the personal right to a chunk of God’s gold and power as part of the divine plan. When Copeland says that he’s cursing COVID-19, he’s not calling on God to curse it, but thinks he has the personal power to do it.

That’s several types of severe Christian heresy right there. And with them in charge, Gilead would look like a charming place.

So, if churches are essential, they’re businesses, which means we can tax them. That’s how it goes, right?

I can’t tell if you’re kidding, but I can’t remember the last time I stood in one for an hour, singing at the top of my lungs. (Maybe once in college?)
