vbnautilus 48 Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 Today was the Hare Krishna parade in Venice Beach, or as I like to call it "ideology day". As far as cult parties go, this is a good one. They have these elaborate floats that they push down the boardwalk, and a whole host of people in pseudo-indian garb dancing and singing. The funny thing is that following the floats down the boardwalk are these hard-core christian guys with megaphones, yelling at them about how they are going to hell. "You're not getting reincarnated as a butterfly, or a dog, or anything, you are GOING TO HELL." This would be totally hilarious if it wasn't also annoying and rude. Do these guys really think this is an effective way to get their message across? What do Christians think of this kind of behavior? Some pics... Link to post Share on other sites
Sick Boy 0 Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 If you dont believe in God you are going to hell to spend eternity in torture. The fact that you may or may not be a good person with another relegion has nothing to do with this fact. Its time that you accept this and convert, Link to post Share on other sites

timwakefield 68 Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 How brilliant would it be if The Internet was following behind the Christians and protesting their protest? (It would be somewhat brilliant, that's how brilliant it would be.) Link to post Share on other sites

(It would be somewhat brilliant, that's how brilliant it would be.)There was a kid who brought a big sign that said "I'm with stupid" and walked up next to the Christians to snap a picture.Also, the web site printed on that preacher's sign does not exist.

timwakefield 68 Posted August 4, 2009 Share Posted August 4, 2009 Also, the web site printed on that preacher's sign does not exist.Oh it exists, he simply spelled it incorrectly. Pluralize that shit, and you will find yourself at a website that right-off-the-bat is gonna let you know that homo sex is sin, and that God hates sin.It's very much his web page too - he's not just a random dude holding a sign. He just...forgot that his incredibly cheesy, elaborate, and hate-mongering website should be plural. EDIT: It's not plural, it's possessive. He forgot that his website's title should be possessive.GOALS, OBJECTIVES AND MISSION OF THIS SITEThe PURPOSE of the Official Street Preacher's website is to be a douche and talk an awful lot about "homo sex."

They are basically a cult of criminals that pray on lost youths. I have no sympathy for them. The top guys in the 80s were a bunch of child molestors and drug dealers.

davezz5 0 Posted August 7, 2009 Share Posted August 7, 2009 that's the only heaven that exists.Had to google "clunkers programme", we have a similar scheme here. Maybe you will get discount depending on how large you are? Those Christians in the initial photo's would need to be extremely pious folk.Then again I suppose souls are like angels, neither take up much space. Link to post Share on other sites
