Praise the lord! We dropped by the Portland Pentecostal church today for our weekly dose of shouting, speaking in tongues and wild gesticulating from the pastors.

According to the Pentecostals, we are all fallen sinners who deeply need Jesus (and a screaming pastor) to save us from the fires of hell. Needless to say, that message went in one ear and right out the other. Kind of like a bullet. Stop back and we’ll tell you about the damage it did on the way through.
