In Tennessee, a 60-year-old preacher at St. John’s Missionary Baptist Church has been accused of pulling a gun on his 32-year-old son during an heated argument inside its hallowed halls. The incident started when the father confronted his son for missing multiple days of church and the conversation quickly went south. In a fit of warped rational and hope that fear would get his son to attend church weekly, his father pulled a gun on him and threatened to kill his entire family. Concerned for the safety of his loved ones and his own well being, the son took out a restraining order on his father and charges have been filed. Neither the church, nor the pastor will comment on the case and a court date has been set.

LOL what an interesting decision!
Talk about Bible Basher…
see this is the reason i dont go to church at all…with my luck i would miss one service and get fucking shot for it
this is why i dont like regilions, most of the wars on earth are because of religions….. =/
to me…nothing is more scarier than a religious person with a gun!
Am I surprised? Of course not. I lived in Tennessee a couple years ago, And it doesn’t surprise me the least that a preacher there would go to those length. Religious people in Tennessee; Not the kind of people you want to cross… Unless of course you’re hunting for a bullet to the face.
That’s really sad, the father needs help before he finds another excuse to go psycho on anyone else.
People are kind of like this where I’m currently living, its best to just nod and keep your mouth shut.
When I moved to where I am now, I was afaid they would burn me at the stake. This I have to say mite be worse.
Why is my state full of idiots?
It’s things like this that makes me embarrassed to live in TN. The sad thing is, I’ve seen worse >.<
I don’t have religion… cos its not be in this way… so limited… is a free state of soul, not to be like…. so sad. but crazy have in all place… many humans not know nothing… blindness…
Fred? Fred Phelps? Is that you?
Seriously though. This is the kind of thing that made me choose to be a Deist.
Crazy ass bible people.
and i thought the us was all about tolerance.
silly preacher guns are for kids and zombie killing.
Sad thing. I can see most pastors doing that nowadays. Even my old youth pastor wouldn’t surprise me if he did that. People should choose a faith or religion of their own freewill, not yours. Idiots. And they wonder why I almost turned agnostic.
With the exception of the few people I like in TN, the rest of the state needs to GTFO.
…
I went to that church once.
With my parents.
When I was five.
