Silent Servants...

... of the Used, Abused, and Utterly Screwed Up.

A Secular Franciscan looks at the world...

While I feel such sadness

over the tragedy and loss of the life of this person, I have to say that I really shudder when I hear of these types of religious services, let alone funerals...

Slain pastor's wife: `I refuse to let Satan win'

""On Sunday, my husband didn't die. He simply got a promotion," Cindy Winters said. She raised a hand to the sky as the "Movin' on Up" theme from "The Jeffersons" blared from the loudspeakers and the standing-room-only crowd rose to its feet at First Baptist Church in this St. Louis suburb."
I just shudder when I read things like that. I'm sure they had something on Powerpoint, too...
