I think you should have a word with the pastor to let him know how you feel about him misrepresenting your friend.

Cin3, I took your little "dare" and clicked on the video link.

An interesting bit of cinema, with a soundtrack reminiscent of John Cage's famous "4:33".

In other words... Nothing there. A non-video to go with a non-existent god. Well (non-)played!

Several years ago, I met a gay Xtian author through one of his books, a hilarious semi-fictional account of growing up in the southern Assembly of God group. He was kicked out of his Christian college one month before graduation because they found out he was gay. We had several good discussions on the phone before he died and he expressed that his family was heartbroken that he was gay and happy about it. He knew he was dieing and had specific plans for his funeral, including the church, the preacher (his gay pastor) and the music.

WRONG!!! His body had not cooled off when his family stepped in and negated everything he wanted. All his pastor and friends could do was sit by and watch the circus proceed.

Some old-time Assembly of God preacher preached his funeral at an Assembly church he never attended. The lying preacher told long stories of him repenting of the sin of homosexuality on his death bed and refuting everything he said bad in his book. (Nothing bad in the book, it was hilarious.) So the family and preacher LIED to the world to prove they were right.

That is one reason I am leaving the faith of "liars for the cause." In fact, Christian people, especially ministers, are the main thing pushing me OUT of the faith of Xtianity. Not sin, not guilt, not wanting my own way...but their lack of integrity which negates their message! Lying christians...Liars in the name of Christ.

BTW, if you are interested in a refreshingly funny book, lots of great stories about fundy time in America, the book is entitled "STRANGE ANGEL, THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO BENNIE JOE and is available at Amazon:

Dave, I'm so sorry you lost your friend. I have to agree with everyone saying that we are sick of listening to the pastor telling such lies at someone's funeral. They get away with it mostly because people are sad and tired, and just want it to be over and the person they are bullshitting about can't speak anymore.

No, I would want to be remembered for what I actually believed and I would presume others would too. If he did not believe in Xianity, then he should be remembered that way and people should not rewrite his life story. That would be a true celebration of life.

To be honest while i do not agree and i am not on the side of the pastor, I feel his family would of directed the pastor to come up with this story and not the other way around.
I think it would be better if you spoke to the family and asked them why they decided to do that?

I absolutely agree with the previous posters. Christianity has had over 2000 years to spread it's lies, I'm so sick of the self-righteous fundies who use religion to control people we have grown adults groveling to church every Sunday simply because they are afraid of a mythical man made hell.

If it were not for the threat and fear of hell you couldn't get a person to step one foot into a church and lick a preacher and a mythical figures' ass.

It was all invented by a bunch of lunatics and only a lunatic will follow such bullshit.

I agree. So many preachers that lie to make it all sound good and godly. I can see my parents pulling this when I die.

I believe in celebration of life asd long as it is a celebration of the person's life not Jesus life and no religion mixed in.

I would not hesitate a second in speaking out. I'm sick to death of preachers flat out lying in these situations.

If it were my friend, I would chide the pastor for lying to his congregation. He probably won't care. Martin Luther said it was OK for Christians to lie if it was done to bring people to Christ.

You're welcome and no, you're not the only one and we probably won't be the last either.

I agree w zedge. Whats the drawback? Sounds like a pretty good plan to me. It will enrage the wackos (what doesn't?) but it will also embolden the non-believers in your community to stop being so passive.

I think you have a moral obligation to your friend and your community. No pressure or anything... :)
