He was thrown in jail for just 6 months, and given 3 years probation.

That's four and a half years less than the minimum time in jail for statutory rape.

Last Friday, Pastor Alexie Kelly violated that probation, and now he may be joined by many others not returning to his church come Sunday.

He could be considered a lucky man. Many of the people who listened to his sermons every Sunday are standing by him, even after his second arrest.

Joia Suggs is one of the few who say they're disappointed. "I was enjoying his sermons, I was feeling the spirit, so I continued to go. But now I'm questioning whether I should return," said Joia Suggs, Little Rock Baptist Church parishoner.

Arrested last March for allegedly having an affair with a 13-year-old girl, the 35-year-old pastor is behind bars again, this time, police say, for violating his parole for trying to contact the girl.

Many Little Rock Baptist Church parishoners share the same street.

Those in support of Kelly didn't want to go on camera.

Chtavia Felton is not supporting him.

"How could you get in front of a body, a large body of people and try to preach them the word, and you doing wrong yourself," said Chtavia Felton, a church visitor.

Suggs, who went to church nearly every Sunday, says she won't be there this week, or possibly ever again.

Kelly's attorney would not comment on the case, and a deacon at Little Rock Baptist would not return our call.

Kelly's attorney says the church still wants him to continue to work there as pastor.

Why not go back to that church?

Thats were god is. Just because Flip violated a law of the land does not mean he's violated any of god's laws, you can't put a man of god in jail, it's unconstitutional.

God is church, god dwells in a church, god only exists in a church, if you want to see god, then build a church and look for god.

It does not matter if the preacher is there, it's god you're looking for, but there is no one to leave your money to, just set the money down on the bench and by next Sunday it will be gone, god took it, OK?.

Now lets talk about god, isn't he just wonderful?

Let us not judge, lest we all be judged, isn't that just beautiful, those wonderful sayings that come from the bible.

What would we all do if there were no bible to lead us around chasing our tails, huh?

Isn't jesus just wonderful? Did jesus ever smoke canabis weed? It's not mentioned in the bible, then I guess not.

Aren't we all just god's little children mimicking the charactors of the bible, we are so special in the eyes of god.

Jesus loves me this I know, cause the bible tells me so mmmmm~mmmmm mmmmm~mmmmm.

The bible is our milk and honey, without the bible we are nothing, the bible lifts men up to standards above reproach.

The bible is our guide book, our resourse for knowledge, our owners manual if you will.

If god be for us, then who will be against us?

God is ______? your answer

What is god______? your answer

A three letter word, that needs to be worshipped, demands worship, requires worship, it likes money, lots and lots of money, it calls cetain people to believe that it calls them to preach.

God is fuel for the imagination, brain fuel, like spent fuel leaves nothing.

God is a imaginative concept invented by the wondering mind not willing to accept an empty thought of nothingness.

Hey, did god knock-up a 13-year old? Isn't this poor guy just following god's example?

Shannon, good point.

Wilson, your post had me rolling on the floor (figuratively of course, since I'm no holy roller).

I notice that you do not usually post pictures of the people you discuss.

But you did post the picture of this BLACK man.

Very interesting.

Mr. Martin Sir,

In all fairness to the WM, would you be so kind as to look on the left hand side of your screen and under Section Archives and click on 11.05 before you make an unfair blanket statement, you will see four or five people christians spotlighted, and Yes they be white folk too, then click on 12.05 for more whiteys. OK? Just try it and see. Lets be fair, OK?

Maybe he was trying to creat another Jesus, as the second coming of this imaginary Christ is way overdue.


Anonymous madamehel said...
Martin, whether or not there is a picture has to do with if there is a picture with the original article, not what the color of someone's skin is. I think you are just trying to imply something to make a point that isn't there. Other then the one on the top of your head.

Wouldn't the terms "Good Pastor" and "Good Sermons", both be Oxymorons?

Yeah, I thought so.

What makes him good? Because he tells you how wonderful you are and that you're going to heaven.

Is it lies you want to hear, yes it is, you're full of lies yourself!

You and your bible is full of lies, that's why you love to hear lies and more lies, you'll even pay an idiot preacher to tell you more lies.

If everbody makes mistakes, what the hell is he doing preaching lies to you for? You fucking moron!
