Thad, would you be objecting if this were Girl Scout day? All the Girl Scouts were invited? (and their parents....)

Admit it: You Just Don't Like Leather Pants. ROFL!!!!!!!!!!!

As long as the club itself didn't represent anything sinful, I think it would be fine. I know of Christian bike clubs, so this just doesn't offend my sensibilities all that much.

I'm not sure how Biker's Sunday would work, unless it just means that you invite all the bikers and let them show off their bikes in the parking lot after church and have food for everyone after church???? I really see nothing wrong with that sort of thing.

the bikes are their gods. these people worship harley's more than the creator and we are suppose to pander to that ?

Idolatry is just as much as sin as anything else

I know certain ones who will say yahoooo....to those who lie, I for one do not.

When and if it is changed in the AOF - then I will say to that pastor, I am all for it, but till then, there is nothing in the Bible about advertising on TV, but there is something in the Bible about lying. Pure and simple.

I have no problem with the ad, I have a problem with the lie.

I agree. If you can't keep the UPCI's rules then you should pul out of the organization.

As long as what you are promoting is not a sinful thing then why not? Being a biker doesn't automatically make you a sinner.
