Christian Private School Using Booze and “Gaming Tables” to Raise Funds.

If Jesus went there in flesh, how quickly would he overturn the tables and toss out the booze?

Dennis has the eye witness report.

The Church, and Beef and Beer Night

I saw something very strange yesterday. My drive from the train station (yes some conservatives do support mass transit) to home takes me past an elementary school run by a church. The school is to my right and the church and parsonage are on my left. In front of the school is one of those signs where you can write announcements under the school name. Yesterday the sign advertised an upcoming fundraiser: Beef and Beer Night with gaming tables.

Beef and Beer Night in and of itself seems to send the wrong message for a school. Add gaming tables and this is wrong for all sorts of reasons. But when the school is run by a church I can’t help but think society has really lost its way.
…

To think, a church backed school is using booze and people’s temptations to play games of chance to raise money.

Matthew 21:12-13 (New King James Version)

12) Then Jesus went into the temple of God and drove out all those who bought and sold in the temple, and overturned the tables of the money changers and the seats of those who sold doves.

13) And He said to them, ?It is written, ?My house shall be called a house of prayer,? but you have made it a ?den of thieves.??

Now granted a school is not a church, but this school is backed by a supposed house of prayer. God does not endorse booze and games of chance. We all know that the Philadelphia area Dennis lives in is very close to Atlantic City, a gambling capital and Dennis points out that PA is approving slot machines. The church is using the sinful vices of the world in the name of education, just like the world. But what does this ultimately teach children? It teaches them that the sin is OK. And as a result, they will work to defend the sin, rather than morality and the true message of the Lord, that a church is supposed to endorse.

    1One of the seven angels who had the seven bowls came and said to me, “Come, I will show you the punishment of the great prostitute, who sits on many waters. 2With her the kings of the earth committed adultery and the inhabitants of the earth were intoxicated with the wine of her adulteries.”(Revelation 17:1-2 NIV)

    Read what the author of http://www.starofdavid.net says about Judeo-Christian “Organized” Religion vs Judeo-Christian Religion (the people).

    The author states, “A ***** is a Bride who sells herself for money. The Great ***** is The Great Christian Church who has sold her love of Jesus Christ for money.”

    This story is yet another example.

    No problem. Unfortunately the filter can’t discriminate on intent :D .
