Super Bowl party at a church....

[Nitemare]

Heard an ad on the radio where a church is hosting a Super bowl party.

That would be so awkward, who would actually go to this?

I would assume people who go to church, not the ones who show up everys unday just because. More the real Church goers. Not all super bowl parties involve cussing and mass consumption of Big Light ha.

why would it be awkward? Who knows maybe God is a huge Patriots fan.

I saw a church sign the other day which read, "With God every Sunday is Super Sunday"

So yeh, churches host parties in their basements or other rooms off the main part. In fact, there might even be some beer. :Q

I went to one at a youth group a long time ago. It wasnt really awkward. It was just like hanging out with a bunch of people who share your views and such.

Basically its a super bowl party without the cussing and beer and such. Although, there still could be alcohol there. and Cussing. so uh. . yeah.

That would be awkward for me to go to a church to watch the superbowl, especially since i'm in Giants country.

<Tom Brady drops back to pass... throws a bullet to Randy Moss in the end zone... TOUCHDOWN!!!! The patriots are up 49-0 on the Giants and it's only the 1st half!>

<Me> YEAH BITCH'S, SUCK IT DOWN YOU NY MIDGETS! *takes a swig of beer*

*jaws drop*

Not all Christians are like that ... sermon in the morning/afternoon, Super Bowl in the evening. It all works out.

you go and get loaded on sacramental wine.

Haha Yea I knew someone would bring that up. I was really sad to hear the NFL would do that, surely they knew the bad pr they'd get.

A lot of church's have nice multimedia setups (this is not a critique in anyway, just saying). They probably have projectors that could display the game well to a large group of people. And I don't think a lot of church's are about sitting politely and watching quietly during the game, they aren't stupid they know it's sports. It'll probably be more 'family friendly' just like most public settings where anyone would be invited would be.

What is beer teh devil? How come wine is considered sacred, but beer has a bad rap.
I see nothing wrong with a minister/pastor/priest/clergyman having a couple of beers at a superbowl party.

and yes, i have witnessed such. at my aunt's 50th birthday party her pastor drank a beer with us. it was no bigee.

Jesus doesn't care if you get drunk and cuss and swear... long as you love him.

I went to a Catholic 'fair' that my in laws insist me and the bride attend . I haven't drank that much beer since my PiKE days . Was a very good time and i would go again tonight !

seriously.

i worked with a JW in kansas for a while as a field tech, we got sent to topeka to work with a guy. turned out *that* guy was a JW. we got off work early and he invited us over for videogames since we had nothing to do but sit in a hotel room (ok, it was well north of topeka)

we were there an hour and a half, and just to be polite, i didnt curse. the whole time. i only last that long when i sleep.

i have heard of such things

i don't think it is the proper use of a tax exempt religious facility

violating laws doesn't seem like it fits the "mission statement" of most religions
as far as i know, most religions teach that you obey the laws of the govt.
and violating copyright laws , to me, doesn't seem to fit into the role of religion

It says there is an exemption for Sports Bars. Maybe they should add one for churches as well. (as long as it's not a Scientology or Mormon church)
