  1. So glad our young are raised so well that we can trust them to be responsible adults. 🙄

    Seriously, thank you for the laughter. My entire family laughed over this one. 😀

  3. Wow, those bunk beds are ridiculous! I’m guessing 5 girls to a room with two sets of bunk beds means that the 5th one is there to keep an eye on the others?

    Oh, and Darrell, you’re totally in with my 2-year-old after that Count von Count bit.

  4. I’m always intrigued with the love of baseball and attending baseball games within the fundamentalist circles. Usually, there’s beer/alcohol, cussing, and playing of “rock” music.

  5. The funny thing is… after one semester at the college I recognized almost everyone in that video.

    2. Sadly…so did I…and a few of us were like “yup we’re out”…we were the smart ones….

  6. I linked this on my FB page and I just got chewed out by my grandma. Immediate family doesn’t speak to me – check. Grandma now doesn’t speak to me – check. 🙄

    1. Take a page from the Fundys and chalk it up to suffering for Jesus’ sake. 🙄

      In all seriousness, I’m sorry that happened. We went through a period when I was a kid where my mom’s side of the family wouldn’t speak to us. In part, because my family left my grandad’s church.

  8. Darrell, your accent completely cracks me up. Throw in the cheerful sarcasm, and I’m ROFLMAO!!!

  11. Truthfully this is probably one of the best of the fundamental colleges. You won’t hear Clarence Sexton say stupid stuff like Scaap, and although the school has the dress code, you would probably never hear standards preached from the pulpit. It’s pretty much all Bible there unlike H.A. or PCC.

  12. Hmm… graduated from THE Crown College. Sexton has nothing but stupid stuff to say. And yes, standards are preached from the Bible. And wait… the Bible portion of my degree was a joke.

    Love the video… so much truth!

  13. oops… meant to say pulpit, but Sexton could make anything seem like it’s in the Bible if he wanted to, so maybe I was right the first time.

  15. Hey Darrell,

    I don’t know you. But from this video of utterly pointless mockery, you come off as a jerk. I don’t know what motivates you to waste your time in this fashion, but it can’t be good. Is your life really that utterly boring and pointless?

    1. Hey Sam, I don’t know you, but immediately resorting to ad-hominems doesn’t speak well of one’s character.

      1. You use the term ad-hominem. I don’t think it means what you think it means. A character attack is only invalid when it is not the subject of debate. But in this case, it is. I am deliberately pointing out what appears to be a severe flaw in Darrell’s character based on his distasteful mockery of my alma matter. Anyone who is so full of hate that he feels compelled to make an utterly pointless mockery of people is a jerk. The fact that you can’t understand that does not speak well of you, Rob.

        1. But instead of attacking the ideas and arguments we levy against “The” Crown College and its ilk you attacked Darrell personally.

          So, actually, RobM got it correct, you are guilty as charged.
          The other type of ad hominem argument is a form of genetic fallacy. Arguments of this kind focus not on the evidence for a view but on the character of the person advancing it; they seek to discredit positions by discrediting those who hold them. It is always important to attack arguments, rather than arguers, and this is where arguments that commit the ad hominem fallacy fall down. http://www.logicalfallacies.info/relevance/ad-hominem/

        2. Jerk definitively qualifies as an ad hominem. Maybe you should double check that definition before you attempt snarky humor.

        4. I still submit that it is not an ad hominem. Don, you say that I fail to attack the arguments that you levy….but you fail to realize I am criticizing Darrell for mocking people in a video that makes NO ARGUMENTS AT ALL. There is NO POSITION TO DISCREDIT WITH A LOGICAL ARGUMENT BECAUSE DARRELL MAKES NO ARGUMENTS IN THE VIDEO, ONLY MOCKERY. The video is sheer mockery, and anyone who makes such a video is not doing so out of kindness. Pointing that out is not an ad hominem. If the video made any actual argument against Crown College, then I would have to deal with the arguments. But the video makes no arguments!!! It is only mockery!!! And anyone who mocks is not nice. All I did was point that out. There is no logical fallacies committed (on either side) because there are no logical ideas or arguments being exchanged (by either side). One person mocks (Darrell) and the other person called him out for it (me).

          Rob, calling someone a jerk for doing something that is nasty and of poor taste is not an ad hominem. It is only an ad hominem if said person made any logical arguments that I failed to engage. There are no arguments in that video for me to deal with. Only sheer mockery. And all I did was call Darrell out for it. Maybe it is YOU who should check his definitions.

        3. Seriously, let it go. So I won, big deal. How should I pray for you. I know, the way you’d pray for me. “Lord, I thank Thee that I am not like this John guy…”

        4. Thank you for being one of the very very few people on this comment strand that have any logic and sense about what they’re saying. This video is an abomination truly and if you have such a big problem with this school keep it to yourself. I just don’t understand why people feel the need to jump on the Internet and make a mockery out of something that God is using so thank you Sam for defending this. I am finishing my sophomore year at Crown and I love it here.

  18. I have to say that this college was the biggest waste of my life. I traveled for them, represented them and got absolutely nothing in return, except negativity. It’s all a cult, hidden behind the mass worship to pastor sexton. But this video is absolutely hilarious. I love the”walking in the grass part” haha we weren’t allowed to even do that haha
