I should start out by saying that Mars Hill have been good neighbors since they opened a church in my neighborhood. They’re a part of the community, and it’s appreciated. That said, what the fuck [h/t]?
“Mark started the meeting by telling us he was convinced that I had demons,” says Amy, “and then he went on to add that my demons were ‘sexual demons’.”
Amy describes Mark’s demeanor toward her as a “fiery tirade”. During this encounter, Mark told Amy he believed that every one of her sins were “sex based.” He said that the demons inside her were out to destroy every one of the marriages in their circle of friends.
Really, I don’t know what to say (other than muttering “sex demons?” repeatedly under my breath, and that’s probably not helpful).

Brainwashed cult members can indeed be quite pleasant and good neighbors. That doesn’t change the fact that they remain brainwashed cult members.

Sounds like Mark Driscoll is possessed by demons.

Sex Demons! Now that sounds like some fun.

The guy believes in magical invisible intangible beings in the sky who give us rules that come to people in their dreams … but it takes THIS for you to think he’s a silly sad clown…I figured that from the outset.

It’s possible that someone as misogynistic as Mark Driscoll should have stayed away from a religion whose basic tenet is that a woman bore a savior who was fathered by someone other than her husband.
Because it seems he has gone insane.

I think this is emblematic of many religions, particularly much of Christianity, or Christianism. They (the hierarchy) have an absolutely FREAK-Y (think White Goodman) relationship with sex and sexuality and sexual pleasure and the notion that it could all be a healthy, joyous thing. There’s a deep self-loathing that when percolated deep in a conflicted, confused, shamed person, comes out in terribly destructive ways – like this, or pedophile priests or Ted Haggard or the relationship with the Catholic Church and women as a group.
I think of Monty Python – “WITCH!! WITCH!! BURN HER!! BURN HER!!”

The trolls avoided this thread..
They can’t face the ugly truth that their cult of right wing insanity uses sexual shaming as a primary tool in their quest for absolute authoritarian control.

What can you say?
1) “Sex Demons” would be a great name for a rock band…
2) Sex Demons could be a great benefit to society if they would only fuck some of these religious whackjobs to death…

Patton Oswalt makes sense out of this “phenomenon”…
