Armed Lutheran Radio

In this week's "Clinging to God & Guns" show, Lloyd and Pastor Bennett continue fisking an article from Patheos.com that is so chocked-full of stupid that it's going to require three full shows to dissect. The author, a United Methodist "pastor," says we're all going to hell for not supporting gun control. There's so much stupid that we could not cover it all in one episode so tune in next week for episode 265 when we continue our descent into madness.

In this week's "Clinging to God & Guns" show, Lloyd and Pastor Bennett get back to their roots by fisking an article from Patheos.com. The author, a United Methodist "pastor," says we're all going to hell for not supporting gun control. Lloyd and Pastor dissect this IQ-destroying article filled with bogus stats, self-righteous slander, logical fallacies, and a staggering level of ignorance. There's so much stupid that we could not cover it all in one episode so tune in next week for episode 264 when we continue our descent into madness.

A Christmas message based on the account of author Henry Williamson of the Christmas Truce on the Ypres salient in 1914. That account, published in the London Daily Express in 1937, reminds us that even during that deadly and bitter conflict, we are all God's children. Pray that we remember that fact in the midst of our modern day divisions. Remixed and Remastered version of episode 201 released on Christmas Day 2019.
