Could someone please explain to me what is going on in these videos?

http://www.patheos.com/blogs/friendlyatheist/2017/04/25/what-sort-of-weird-mop-slapping-new-church-ritual-is-this/

Since when do christian pastors bash their congregation in the face with a mop?
These are just crazy heads, they fuck it up for every organization (read: Islamic terrorists, hyper conservative evangelicals, etc). I can't promise you, mop bashery is not part of the Good Book. But, it makes for a great clip.

The most extreme elements of an organization are usually the definition of said organization, to those with little knowledge of the true ideology of the organization. I see it on CNN and Fox, it's a fault of rhetoric.Its not partisan, I mean. Religions are full of rhetoric, same.principles apply. Jesus was the best rhetorician that has walked the Earth, it would be dishonest to deny this.

ROFL

First, Jesus never existed

Second, biblical quotes are far from profound (some are quite horrifying)... the bible is not known as a literary work of art by any stretch of the imagination

... to you. Wink I'm sorry you don't have the light of the Lord in your life, but, you don't seem to care, so meh. I'm not one of those proselytizing  Christians. You pick your own path Smiley

But, alot of people in the United States would disagree with you. Doesn't invalidate your choice, but something to think about.

Blame the education system....Another 20 years and the US will be behind China, Russia, India and Brazil...never mind Europe.

Sorry but Christian universities will not cut it to lead the world in science and technology.  Do you want to see what the world looks like when religion takes over the education system?  Take a look at the Middle East.  How many Nobel Prize winners are from the Muslim countries?  That is the future the US is facing if you guys continue down this 'Christian path'.


Who said anything about Christian universities? Education should be secular.DeVos needs to sit the fuck down. Dont think all Christians have drank the evangelical cool aid. There are suh things as moderate Christians.

By alot of people, I mean Christians, period.

Don't look now, but some of us are pro choice too. The blasphemy.
