You know what? I get sick of all this Optimistic BS.

"We want to spread the good news about Jesus Christ!!"

Oh really? Is there something new to report? Because I think you pricks have been heavily editorializing Christ's life, I'm pretty sure there were some bad days in there but we're just glossing those over?

Like the day JC was re-hanging the door of the local public crapper and smashed his thumb with a hammer because hes a crap Carpenter?

Or the fact that when they crucified him they hammered the nails through him because the dudes that hung him up there were Graduate Students of 'Jesus' Carpenter College' and they all sucked and just totally missed.

Where is the parable of Jesus sitting with his disciples in the local tavern just hunched over with a glass of a wine and a smoke hanging his head and just:

"Guys...let me tell you about the goddamned day I had...."

Top notch englishing, too.


Our goal is to reach as many people with the good news of Jesus Christ.

They're enabled by congregants. People need to stop going to churches. You have to know it's hogwash...this is ridiculous in 2025.

Victory Churches International Missions is a non-denominational missions organization.

To establish them in the local church, teaching and training them to become like Christ.
To mobilize the army of God, to help each person to find his or her place and function in the Body of Christ.

I think you had perhaps put down the Good Book for a sec and grab the dictionary.

How do your trust an organization to guide your eternal soul when they are this clumsy? Oh, and creepy.

Preach, brother.

Charlatan: a person who falsely pretends to have knowledge or skills they do not possess, often for personal gain or to deceive others. They are essentially tricksters or frauds.

I've never had much patience for liars but these religious kooks make me sick to my stomach. Commit to the grift, no matter how ridiculous.

Some of these pieces of garbage actually rent out the Landmark Theater in Shawnessy on Sun mornings for their services, ruining the enjoyment of one of my favorite places. Can't remember the name but their branding changed a couple times in a year or so. I swear I'm going to tell them to ###### off next time I run into them.

His dad is though. Or are they the same guy? Depends who you ask. What about the Holy Spirit? He’s been invisible lately.
