I've been lucky to have a couple of good preachers along the way, but I've known a few bad ones, too. I sure don't see any reason to hang out with people on Sunday morning that wouldn't hang out with me on Sunday afternoon. We've had plenty of good Saturday night bible studies here in my shop over a few cold Busch Lights. Good preachers know that Jesus hung out with prostitutes, drunks, gamblers, and tax collectors for a reason......They needed him. I dated the preacher lady's daughter when my sister was killed. The preacher lady knew that a six pack would go a long way to get a 20 year old to open up a little. We lost another teen girl from the congregation the same year. She was raped and murdered. Town of maybe 300 and a church membership of maybe 100 with 50-60 really active members. The board fired her for spending too much time with our two families. She is still a big part of our family's life, and that's been 20 years ago. I suppose that's why I don't trust the church. Too many hypocrites for a brain as simple as mine. The two legged snakes in the front pew always worried me more than the slithering kind.
