At my mom's methodist (yuck) church, they exchanged pastors with a Jew church last weekend so the rabbi came and preached on sunday instead of the regular pastor. I thought it was the most blasphemous thing I've ever heard of, to let someone who denies the Son lead the church. I almost threw up when I heard about such evil. Surely God will strike down these Judases and throw them into Hell.

What's wrong with Methodists??
"I thought it was the most blasphemous thing I've ever heard of"I guess you haven't heard my speech about how the Jesus of the Bible never existed and how God is imaginary, eh? Bring a bucket, it's sure to make you throw up.
Hey, don't be ragging on the Methodists! I was raised a Methodist too (mom still is one), and I'm so glad for it, because they're accepting and liberal and don't mind questions. They didn't blindfold and brainwash me, so even though I've left that behind, I'll always look back fondly on them and appreciate them.
Firstly, your story wouldn't have the happy, blood soaked ending it has if it weren't for judas. He was key in fulfilling your prophecy, and yet he is despised. I don't get it.
On no not a dirty Christ killing Jew of all thing what next a Butt loving Fagott gay minster or even Oh no no no worse gulp and double yuck a Lesbian Minster.The atrocity of this church god will smite them all
Sooo... the lesson on tolerance and love for others despite your differences, it didn't take, did it? Of course not. what were they thinking? Trying to teach their congregations something like that - it's preposterous! [/snark]
So you throw up every time you go to church, because your pastor reads from the OT, which is....surprise, a jewish book.
If god feels that way about the Jews why does he not just strike them down anyway?
Come to think of it - why doesn't he strike down the followers of Islam, Buddhists, Zoroastrians, Methodists, Unitarians, Roman Catholics - and that lot from the other Baptist church in town are a bunch of heretics, they could do with a good smiting...
How odd
But not so odd
Yes, so I suppose my Catholic high school is doomed because not only did we invite a Muslim speaker to come and talk about her religion, we invited a rabbi over when we were dedicating the peace pole (in different languages, for shame!), and let the synagogue down the street use our gym for Yom Kippur celebrations. And we admitted a heathen Muslim girl as a student and let her keep her headscarf on! The student body didn't even have the decency to boo and jeer at her daily! Some of them actually befriended her! And we admitted a half-Jewish girl, too! In fact, in my grade, there were Methodists and a Seven-Day Adventist. They even allowed me, an Eastern Orthodox Christian, in! How dare they accept me! They should have turned me away the instant that they heard of my religious affiliation and realized that I didn't belong to their particular denomination! My goodness, what foul blasphemers we all were, to allow such savages to infiltrate our holy building! Never mind that we all pray to the same God! Never mind that in their code, it is clearly stated that the school shall not discriminate on religious, economic, racial, or ethnic background! Never mind that Jesus himself attended to Gentiles such as the Samaritan woman and the Roman centurion! Oh, no, my school is ripe for destruction! After still standing for more than twenty years, it shall be eventually struck down by the mighty hand of God for having the audacity to treat other people with respect!
...Okay, I'm done being sarcastic for the moment.
Firstly, you ARE aware that Jesus was Jewish, too, right?
Secondly, you're aware that if your messiah heard you so flippantly passing judgment like that, he'd give you a verbal bitchslapping your grandkids would feel, yes?
I was raised Mormon in Southern Idaho. To me there was ONE way to church at people.
Confused?
So were we! You can find all of this, and more, on Fundies Say the Darndest Things!
