"Gettin' Behind the Pastor" - WHAT???????

There is a UPC church in a unnamed location that when the pastor is getting down with his preaching, the men in the church rip off their ties and throw them at the pulpit to show their agreement.

Even the little guys with clip on's will take them off and throw them up there.

Have you seen this practice? Is this really necessary?

Also, the ladies in this church "carry" their hair over their arms when they walk around.

Now, call me different, but that's just a bit out there for me. What say ye?

I guess that is only when the pastor preaches on paying "Ties"

If it is the guy I am thinking of who encourages just this...I don't think he is preaching any more, and if he is...he shouldn't be.

When church is over, they all go up and sort through the ties to get theirs back. Guess it'd be a good time to trade off an ugly tie if you wanted to.
