Holy Crap: Son of a Preacher Man Edition
Billy Graham’s grandson is pastor at a Florida megachurch that “focuses on God’s grace and the forgiveness of sin.”
But, he didn’t give so I guess he wasn’t looking to receive.
He says his wife had an affair and while he was looking for comfort, he also did the dirty. So, you know, it was really her fault. If she hadn’t had that affair, he wouldn’t have been forced to have one, too.
Damn wimmen.
Thanks to chloe bear for the heads up.
For all we know it could have been the other around. Maybe she had one because he did.
1He couldn’t help it, there was an apple and a snake.
Whew! Eve did it, so all women are at fault.
What don’t these guys get about the phrase “personal responsibility”??
2His name is Tullian Tchividjian, which is useful, because none of the women he takes to the NoTell Motel will be able to pronounce it and give him up, later. But what name do you suppose he uses, when he registers with the desk clerk?
3Was the affair with another woman or a man?
4Fred … would it make a difference?
They can all spew their holier then thou stuff but they are all made of the pliable material we’re all made of!!
5Guess he preferred to follow the Old Testament meaning of “an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth…”
6And all of it caused by gay marriage and equal rights. Or Obama.
7“It was all her fault!” … what an unmensch.
8This apple fell from the tree once removed or something like that.
But I was elected to handle church affairs,cut me some slack,damnit!
9Y’know Billy, the grandfather, aimed for a job in the recording industry, making the vinyl recordings from a metal master. But he was fired cause every time he touched a vinyl record the hole healed shut.
10Good one,Micr!
11isn’t there a song? Grandson of a preacher man.?
12Yeah, but–SHE did it first. So, as mom always said, “And if she had jumped off a bridge?” Schmuck!
13All of this from the religion that worships the man who taught forgiveness, universal love, and who should cast stones. I can see why he was drummed out of the cult. Damned hypocrites.
14The women couldn’t pronounce his name? Hell, what about the translation — Noballs.
15So two wrongs do make a right. I do love me some right-wing math.
16“What’s good for the gander is good for the goose.” I think that’s in the Bible somewhere. Must be. He found it.
17Interesting how it is always the woman to blame. If a husband is unfaithful, the wife failed. If a woman (or girl child) is raped, she tempted him. And when Adam bit the apple, it was all Eve’s fault. This seems to be a core belief of the religious right.
18My ex demanded that I have an affair. I went to classes on sex an intimacy instead and during that informative time–figured out he was gay, ended up attracted to someone and after great deliberation, obeyed my husband. I told all my confidante about his demand long before it happened because I was confused and upset by the request.
19I was in a great deal of prayer about what to do, when to tell him and all of that. When I told him, he said he was going to kill me and my lover (his real plan to avoid alimony because he was involved with someone male)
Since I had talked to my friends about it from the beginning–it foiled his seamless plan–When he told me that no one would convict him because of a faithless wife–it begged to differ. He has never forgiven me for foiling his plan by being honest about my actions and intentions to my friends and family. I only know a few “good” men, the father of my children does not, unfortunately fit that discription. The saddest part is his boyfriend doesn’t like children, so my children don’t have much of a father. It’s hard to be forgiving. I mostly feel pity for him now. I am fine–in a loving relationship and happy What a tangled Web deception is…
That blaming Eve thing — only Christian carry on like that. In Judaism, there is a much more benevolent take on that incident.
20Maggie, I think Christians share the “evil woman” syndrome with Muslims, and other non-Christian religions. Why else do they make them cover every inch of their body and stone them when they transgress? Let’s face it, women and Democrats are the source of all evil.
21Unfortunately there is this comment said by traditional Jewish men at the beginning of the daily morning prayers: “Blessed are you, Lord, our God, ruler of the universe who has not created me a woman.” They are also thankful for not being gentiles or slaves.
It seems that all fundamentalist religions believe that women are inferior, assuming they are people at all. Fortunately all of the major religions also have non-fundamentalist branches that don’t share that contempt.
