Stop playing pin the tail on the donkey & get over your victimization complex.....The problem is Y-O-U, not preachers.
You stop dishing it out & you'll stop receiving it......Simple. Respect is earned.
Your being "good with men is dresses" is patently absurd & makes me soooooo thankful to not be numbered with your kind. I keep waiting for the punch-line (thinking you cannot be serious), but sadly, I honestly think you are too far gone....But hope you find genuine repentance someday & learn to take personal inventory. Does it ever "register that God is watching Y-O-U?"

I had to do a little thinking and a lot of praying on why I have been so negatively affected by your posts and here are some of my conclusions:
You
represent everything I ever hated about a movement I am as quickly distancing myself from as possible. While I do not know you personally, I feel like I have met you 100 times, in the preachers who say hateful things over pulpits everywhere. Who laugh at those who 'only got wet' at their baptisms, who gleefully talk about all who will burn forever in tormenting hell for some small mistake they do not even know they are making, who leave people confused and unable to ever trust in God. The preacher who I watched have a man crawl around the platform begging God to save him, while so many of us sat sickened but feeling powerless to stop it. The preacher who bragged from the pulpit about how he refused to pray with a dying saint in the hospital because someone had turned the television on in her room, even though she pleaded with him to pray because she had been conditioned to believe that she could be neither saved nor healed without his prayers.
Yes, you epitomize the controlling pastor I've saw tell people to give up their vacations and give the money to building fund while he took his family to the holy-land for 2 weeks in an all expense paid vacation given to him by the church membership. The pastors who can not even live in the neighborhoods where their churches are because there simply are not big enough Mc Mansions for them. The ones who dress down their congregations for the tiniest infractions of their dress codes and are later found sleeping with the church secretary or molesting girls from the youth.
You hide behind anonymity here and spout your self-righteousness, show disdain and disapproval for others, make pronouncements about the status of others salvation and it disturbs the heck out of me. Because while you, on your own, would be nothing more than a good laugh to me, you do these things in a place where many of the people have a lifetime of abuse by horrible pseudo-preachers like yourself behind them. They are sensitized to it, and you add to their burdens and make them feel that they have to defend their most basic human right, to worship God in their own way. You make them question whatever progress they have made toward healing, you open old scars and salt healing wounds.
And worst of all... YOU DO IT SIMPLY FOR SPORT.
No, I am not a victim. I am a survivor... And you RDP... are a monster.
