I attended a Greek Orthodox church for a religious studies class even though I didn't agree with what they taught.

I quit going to church when they started yelling at me.

Sounds like they went a little far . Our church gets to go to a public school to preach . The parents have to opt in . I am sure this pissed the devil followers off .

How did I know it would be a "cool youth pastor" type?

It seems unimaginable that a teacher would think the meeting appropriate for a compulsory activity in a time that is clearly designed for non-compulsory activities. Almost like some teachers set up the school.
I see it much more likely that the teachers were evangelical and acting subversive themselves.
When I wanted to try out for our basketball team our coach told me it would be possible if I attended his evangelical church. I imagine similar teachers exist in an area of WV where guys like this could be seen as popular with the local FCA.

This is a very likely scenario. Or the kids made the whole thing up.
No other scenario is likely.
A couple of crazy-evangelical teachers knowing exactly what they were doing but feigning ignorance is plausible, too.
Evangelicals (I'm not saying Christians. I'm using words on purpose) put promoting their cults over everything else in life b/c they see it as a higher purpose than any aspect of our lives.

So mine is like a .5% chance and yours is like a 1% chance? Sure.

I'm just saying it CAN be mine (others said there was literally NO other reasoning), but, yes, the most likely reasoning is teachers just being stupid/ignorant.

Definitely on purpose.
Probably had rattle snakes in the room too
Line up kids. If the snake don’t bite, God won’t smite.

Nowadays even Christian parents need to be suspicious of things like this.
Just tacking on the name Jesus doesn’t make it something you would necessarily want your kids going to.
I have no idea what they were preaching, but bringing preachers in on school time is probably something public schools should avoid altogether, no matter what they’re preaching.

This is all x10 once you realize the "preacher" was wearing a flat bill and hoodie.

If your kid has a sub-100 IQ, absolutely. Also, you should wrap them in bubble wrap.

You can’t preach the message of Jesus in a flat bill and hoodie?
What about flannel, jeans and boots?
My pastor is the former and one of the best I’ve ever seen.

You have to question intentions when a clear marketing/PR campaign is at the forefront of his decision-making.
Religion is not supposed to be cool/easy. Hell, Christianity is the ultimate martyrdom and was developed within that context. Christianity is hard, especially within the context of society at large. If you want a religion that works philosophically as a dominant cultural force, Islam is your bag.
Destroying the religion to make it palatable for modern society isn't the path I would support.

Dude said in the video clip that if you didn’t follow Christ you were going to hell. Maybe look for some other target for your stereotype.

I’ll tell my pastor about your opinion.
If you want to reach kids today and the parents aren’t participating you have to get with them.
A man in a Walmart suit toting a Bible doesn’t work.
Jesus did just fine without a suit and wore clothes that the everyday man wore.
