1. Thats Doug Fisher not Larry Brown in the picture. 😉

   1. That’s what I thought also.

   2. Beat me to it….knew it wasn’t Brown, couldn’t remember the other guys name though.

      1. We should’ve asked you, since you run in those circles.

         1. haha…comment of the day award goes to you.

         2. What’s today’s prize? A wide necktie worn by phil kidd? A large print kjv?

         3. How about one of those BJ buttons for new students? 😈

      2. I prefer a signed Chick tract and a personal item once owned by John R. Rice please.

         😉

   3. The voice is Larry Brown, not Doug Fisher

2. The first sermon I’ve heard preached by a Munchkin.

   1. It sounded like Ray Stevens.

3. I’m proud to say I don’t have the faintest clue who Larry Brown or Dough Fisher is, (and don’t want to know), and also I do know most of the slang terms from the previous post, (and glad to say I do).

   1. Me too.

   2. Ditto.

4. Oh God, save us from ourselves!

5. Was this a Halloween post?

6. I’m a little confused by his metaphors. Is the KJV the double barrel shotgun, or the bag of black powder?

   1. Either way, HE was the one who “blew the devil out of that crowd”…not God, not the Word of God.

7. I heard him preach a similar sermon once in another place. I distinctly remember hearing him give this illustration but I was not at Pastors School.

8. I love how he refers to kids that don’t go to church as “it.” That just tells me that to him, they’re just a number on a form.

   1. I picked up on that bit of de-humanizing language as well.

   2. According to this, he thinks they are unsaved. So, the gospel he preaches to them is “modesty”.

      So the pentecostals preach a “prosperity” gospel.
      The legalists preach a “works” gospel
      The “liberals” preach a “social” gospel
      The IFB’s preach a “modesty” gospel

      1. How easily mankind can pervert the simple good news of Jesus Christ!!!

   3. My thoughts exactly, beth. He thinks very little of Sunday visitors. What a pompous windbag.

9. I am so glad I don’t attend church anymore. There are better things to do on Sunday morning then listen to this crap.

   1. My wife and I attend a Brethren Assembly. I enjoy the worship time, but they don’t have a preacher. Sometimes a guy gets up and shares something for 10 minutes which is nice.

      Then we come home and listen to Andrew Farley’s weekly broadcast. Absolute opposite to this – quiet, meek, honest, open, humble, and preaches the truth from the scripture. I love it.

10. Trying to control what people wear is very dehumanizing. It’s none of their g-dam business. But that how you keep the little people down. Its not “modesty”, its control.

    How do fundie men function in the real world?

    1. “How do fundie men function in the real world?”

       I have heard ultra-fundie men comment on how much sin there is in the world. It must be a real struggle.
       Walk into a nonfundy institution and what do you see – women in pants, women that are managers, men with hair that touches the ear and beyond, women that may wear tight clothing, people who think kjv is a new cable channnel etc. etc.
       Since sin is in everything and is everywhere, their heads must be ready to explode.

       1. My thoughts exactly…HOW do they live? Paranoia can only carry you so far before you eventually go “postal”. 👿

       2. I’d love to see one of them apply at my Barnes & Noble, where the only male on the management staff is gay (that would be me), and our store manager is lesbian. I’m guessing spontaneous combustion might occur. 😀

       3. “How do fundie men function in the real world?”

          My answer: The interact as little as possible.

          At my fundy church they kept everyone so busy with church program duties and activities that it was very hard to develop outside relationships – even with extended family. It was expected that the church be the center of our universe. Note: the church, not Christ…There is indeed a difference.

          1. So, so true. And to me, that’s not Christianity. It’s “churchianity.”

    2. If they are hypocrites, they act like everyone else and then complain about everyone else on Sunday.

       Or,

       If they are the honest type, then they confess their sins every 5 seconds to keep short accounts with God (apparently the Old Account wasn’t settled long ago, but only 5 minutes, and then 5 minutes after that), and then complain about it on Sunday.

       1. I know a guy like that. This was his status on Facebook a few days ago

          “Grr. So frustrated with sin in my Heart, my Home, my Church, my State, my Nation, and my World.”

          I makes me so sad to see Fundies spend so much time focused on sin instead of enjoying life and the fact that before God, we are sinless.

11. Ernest T. Bass is a preacher now?

    1. You ain’t heard the last of Ernest T. Bass.

    2. I thought the exact same thing. 😆

    3. Same here: Earnest T Bass was my first thought.

    4. Was expecting to hear him start serenading us with his metal can at any time…:)

       1. Old McBride,jump in the fire,fire too hot,jump in the pot,
          pot too black,jump in the crack,crack too wide,jump in the sky,sky too blue,jump in a canoe,
          canoe too shallow,jump in the
          tallow,tallow too soft,jump in the loft,
          loft too rotten,jump in the cotton,cotton so white gonna stay there all night,HEY.

          1. I loves you Charlene. You are the woman for me. Of course, I’m a little mean but I make up for it by being real healthy.

    5. That is too funny! I was listening to this and my wife walked by and asked me why I was listening to Ernest T Bass

12. “We had a time, we had a TIME”.

    Lots of watches and clocks in the building. Good to know.

    Preachin’ about preachin’ – I hate this.

13. They don’t.

14. Sorry, that was a reply to “How do fundy men function in the real world?”

15. I’m really confused. What were all those people cheering about? Was it really about a guy lambasting a bunch of teenage girls about the length of their skirts?

    Not the incredible love of Father?

    Not a grace that overwhelms reason?

    Not the transformation from death to life?

    No, we’re gonna cheer about some guy ripping a bunch of teenage girls about the way they dress. Lord have mercy, and I mean that literally.

    1. Welcome to fundy land, they need a lot of prayer and mercy

       1. So do we all, RobM

          “…considering thyself, lest thou also be tempted” (Yes, I still think in King James)

    2. All I could think after hearing the roar of the crowd is that someone just hit a home run or made a touchdown! Good grief! 😯

    3. The topic of his sermon was what a great preacher Larry Brown is, and what seems to be one of his proudest moments? Picking on a bunch of pubescent kids about their clothes and hair. Yeah, it takes a real man to do that.

    4. I found it rather unsettling that he focused so much attention on the legs of underage girls.

16. A couple years ago when I was at HAC, I remember Larry Brown preaching at FBC. He told how he moniters the cell phone calls and texts of his adult daughter, who is within a year or two of my age. I was 21 or 22 at the time, and couldn’t imagine staying in a house where they did that. I don’t think it occured to me that I was living at a college where they did similar.

17. “Say amen right there!” *silence* 😛

    At the end of the clip he talks about how preachers ought to open the King James Bible and preach out of it, but I don’t remember hearing a single reference to Scripture in the whole clip until then. He just creates a mental image in every man’s head about those little teen girls in their miniskirts.

18. Wow. Nothing like knowing the guest speaker is going to be checking out your 13 year old daughter’s legs.

19. Has anyone else noticed how much he sounds like the Beverley Leslie character from “Will & Grace”?

20. What an oinker. “Say Soooo-weeeee right there!”

21. I got something to say. “shut the hell up, you fat self-righteous bastard!”
