Re: We Now Have A Total Gangster Government

*shrugs* whatever...I fail to see how my mockery of the despicable usurper in the white house renders a threat to Apostolicsm.

Re: We Now Have A Total Gangster Government

If people want to read threads. Many years ago it was the Pentecostal churches that were burned in the south. They couldn't see a point to segregation.

Now we have a gangster gov and it is society that wants improvements in moral standards.

*Shrug* the point is that many people will fail to see what "gangsta" rap and ebonic-filled lyrics have to do with this particular despicable usurper...unless of course it just applies to all Blacks regardless of their lifestyle and education. That's the kind of thing that makes many cringe around some circles.

I'm just not aware of that being his delivery style. Yes, he is black but he is more articulate and educated than most on here (I said most...settle down Coadie and Dr Vaughn).

The correlation that I am making is that there are many who do feel that the history of the Apostolic movement is marred by some racial issues. Posts like this one do not help that perception.

I see your point, unfortunately the edit time has expired or I would delete it. Didn't mean to offend.

Some of what I am responding to would have clear undertones to many people that I don't like to see tied to the Apostolic movement. It doesn't help that many have a pretty bad perception of the Apostolic movement when it comes to matters of race as it is.
Try following the Tab on AFF, they use real live names and not LS, DS and KH. They connect those real live names to Apostolic on the Tab. By the way, I don't remember anyone defending President Bush as they have this guy. Why is that, is it a cultural thing or is it because he is doing such a fine job?

You don't remember anyone defending President Bush? Have you been on a parallel AFF?

Personally, not much offends me to the point that it would taint my perception, but there are many, many people who would be turned off.
