The example is probably much more truthful than the original for most Christians. Some congregational songs I have to skip a line or so on, because the words simply are not true. Like the hymn that says, "I'll praise the Lord every moment 'til life is over...." Nobody does that. Let's be truthful in our words.

2Tim. 3:16,17 All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.

Try hard not to offend. Try harder not to be offended.
Just because you are paranoid, doesn't mean they are not after you.

Re: I think it is funny
I realize that, but the implications are real, even if actual hymn books are not published this way, the rest of the "package" is being dumbed down for consumers. When denominations are ordaining homosexuals, what more needs to be said? It is a sad commentary on "the church" in the West.Robert wrote:BabylonBee is a parity website.

That is why I thought it was humorous. It hits close to home. I agree it is sad that it does hit so close to home. Sometimes a little humor can get our attention when screaming and yelling seems to be ignored.gcdonner wrote:It is a sad commentary on "the church" in the West.

Re: I think it is funny
it is funny. i realize, the Catholic Church is “the big target” in politics, but,
i’m surprised, no reference to hillary’s actual plans to be a Methodist minister,

or, her book of devotionals, pulled due to plagiarism.

so much material to draw upon, there.
these times clarify the wisdom of former presidents, and failed presidential candidates, to accept election results, and, carry on along that proven path. show some self-respect.
