Not all Christians are staunch supporters of the Second Amendment, while not all priests are blessed with sensibility. In the breaking news blue state of Oregon, Reverend Jeremy Lucas used $3,000 in Parish funds to put himself in pole position for winning charity raffle for an AR-15 and unfortunately, the edge in fueling idealism. |

Absolute stupidity.
With all of society's needs they wasted $3000 on a pure political stunt that benefits no one.
Anyone in that congregation that supported this stunt is just as stupid. |

They paid $3000 for a brand new gun worth less than $3000 and destroyed it.
Ignoring any potential problems from non-charitable use of tax deductible donations, melt all you want, we'll make more. |

I hope this Episcopalian parasite's source of funding dries up. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
I do believe that where there is a choice only between cowardice and violence, I would advise violence. Thus when my eldest son asked me what he should have done had he been present when I was almost fatally assaulted in 1908 [by an Indian extremist opposed to Gandhi's agreement with Smuts], whether he should have run away and seen me killed or whether he should have used his physical force which he could and wanted to use, and defend me, I told him it was his duty to defend me even by using violence. Hence it was that I took part in the Boer War, the so-called Zulu Rebellion and [World War I]. Hence also do I advocate training in arms for those who believe in the method of violence. I would rather have India resort to arms in order to defend her honor than that she should in a cowardly manner become or remain a helpless witness to her own dishonor. — Mohandas K. Gandhi, Young India, August 11, 1920 from Fischer, Louis ed.,The Essential Gandhi, 1962 |
