Pastor electrocuted during baptism

It's terrible, but at the same time I want to make jokes about Zeus's thunderbolt.
 
. . . it was the will of God. Maybe he was doing the baptisms wrong or something?
 
A man has died and has left three fatherless children.

Show some respect.
 
Hey?

What just happened? There was more here before I posted the above.

That was weird...
 
Hey.. yes... I'm sure I made posts in this thread as well. Has someone told Darat about this, or shall I do it?

Eta: I've raised a thread in the management forum.

He died in the service of God (or his religion anyway), doesn't that deserve at least a "PROCEED DIRECTLY TO GO AND COLLECT $200" card? I only wonder WHY it didn't happen before, or was this the first time he mixed electricity and water?

What was it about THIS sermon that he wanted everyone to hear?

Mephisto

At least he proved that God works in mysterious ways, huh?

If you noticed, there are THREE threads on this subject. Perhaps you posted in one of the others. I made the same mistake (thinking my posts were gone).

Wouldn't bother me.

Besides, you can't expect people not to comment if irony attends your demise. Personally, I think it's funny because it happened to someone that made a living telling people not to question God's will.

If you can't laugh at death, what can you laugh at?
 
Everytime I hear of stories like this (and I heard this already on the news), I wonder just what this God is that we are dealing with. God said that he wants us to spread religion throughout the world. Yet this God allows ministers and missionaries and other believers, who may be helping spread the word, to die awful and premature deaths. In Wisconsin, a busload of churchgoers were killed on the way to or from some church event. Missionaries like get their heads cut off. Etc.

You may think, from all my postings, that I am this born-again religious nutcase, but I ain't. I try to call the shots the way I see them. But when it comes to the God of the Bible, and how the Bible makes man out to be God's supreme creation...I have problems with this, like I'm sure you all do.

The only thing I can make of this, so far in my life, is that God has layed his laws down so that inrtelligence of design succeeds. He must not have any room for errors. I guess when people do dumb things, it's his way of ridding the world of people that don't fully grasp or care about the consequences of deviating from the fundamental laws he layed down. Just like I cannot expect God to save me if I hurl myself out the 89th floor window. Because that would be stupid. people who fry bacon in the nude? They too are stupid and will invariably ...well, ever see Mrs. Doubtfire? :)
