Hey now, the cited reason for my break with the church (excommunication) was because I didn’t go to church while I was deployed. (I’m sure coming out as trans slightly before I got that letter had nothing to do with it 🙃)

And they wonder why pews are empty 💀💀💀💀💀

Absolutely, and with an estimated 45,000 denominations around the globe, with different interpretations of the same book, "astray" can mean whatever they want it to mean.

Exactly, I was accused of practising 'false religion' when I made the radical move from Baptist to a different flavour of Baptist. Apparently it was said from the pulpit but, fortuously, I was absent practising aforesaid false religion at the time. My mother thoughtfully told me abt it...

Ugg. The dude on the 17th st. overpass last weekend... Look. Shouting at libs that you must repent (what?) does not bring them to Jesus. And the number of times that I had to stand between a lib in this annoying twat waffle to protect the twat waffle.... *Sigh*

Was just learning last night how upset my Protestant mother was that my brother married a Catholic. 😂

We’re American. I didn’t think that was even a thing here but it is.
