Have you been told you were going to Hell?

It takes a certain kind of spirit to tell someone that they are going to hell and laugh in their face because they are so happy.

Unfortunately, when a preacher rebukes sin and sinners, they often think of it as "that mean old hatemonger was screaming about how I'm going to hell if I don't do what he says, totally unchristian-like, he should have made every effort to make me feel good, then I could have politely told him he was a religious nutcase but thanks for the concern, but because he's being all stupid and mean like those Westboro Baptist Church scumbags I just flipped him off and told him and his god to bite me."

When in reality the 'mean ole religious hatemonger' was just doing what God told him to do - cry aloud, and spare not, and show my people their sins.
