    It’s always fascinating to me that people are so shocked when Christians display extreme violent tendencies.

    Have you cracked open a Bible lately? Their religion is founded on blood sacrifice and torture porn.

      I’m kinda suprised why being a pastor is relevant at all? Edit: For those who down voted, “Elevated Life International Ministeries” seems to have no online presence related to North Carolina, and he’s also a trucker. Why was pastor put in the title rather than trucker? Would this behavior be expected of a trucker?

          Try searching for the church mentioned and see if he’s prominent. The article also mentions he’s a trucker. Why wasn’t that in the title?

            Are truckers well known for spreading an ideology of non-violence? It’s notable because of the extreme hypocrisy.

              That I can understand more. But at the same time if all news is just hypocritical examples… wait, that explains a lot actually.

        Oh man, I wonder if he’s the guy who preaches at truck stops? He’s a trucker who travels around and everytime he stops his truck he grabs his Bible and starts pushing his view of Christianity on all the other drivers who are unfortunate enough to be there.

        Weird dude.
