He was tweeting about how the rapture is coming and a bunch of other stuff yesterday.

This is what kicked it off. Then he got some feedback and did a live with more feedback. Just providing for context.

It's great that he has strong faith.  It definitely concerns me a little when folks say the rapture is about to happen any day now.

As long as he doesn't go down the Dwight Howard path..........(he also had a strong faith)

That's where I'm at.  Good faith keeps him grounded, but that entire end times part is what people were debating with him about. 

I understand AJ's point. I also understand the counter points of people have been saying these are the end days since the 1700's.

I remember getting detention in high school back in the day because a debate got so heated. Instead of doing chemistry experiments we were 'debating' religion and churches.

Way before that.

Yeah, religion is one thing I don't really debate with people. I respect whatever people believe or don't believe. Feel free to feel what you feel as long as you aren't trying to force it on other people.  AJ doesn't seem to be doing that here either. I like how his faith helps keep going and be positive about life.

In hindsight, one might say Dwight’s family had a strong faith and he was a part of that atmosphere until getting out on his own.

What was the case over?  I think I remember thinking copyright wasn't really in play there.

[marco102]

He is about to go viral. With the recent death in his family, I think he is coping.

I dunno but it seemed pretty clear Google used outsiders' intellectual property in their search algorithms.

Is that a thing?  See, this is why I need a good lawyer.  I'll settle for @shakes tho since he's here ... and cheap.

Yeah somebody's gotta get to him.  He's sounding unhinged.

Legally I can't promise you a large cash settlement, but just between you and me I promise you a large cash settlement.

This is not good stuff to be putting out for so many reasons.  But isn't the first to not question other people's faith?  Especially Beyonce's.

@Spud2nique and I will compete to see who gets more contempt charges.  And we will be calling surprise witnesses so don't be alarmed when the Marshall shows up with subpoenas.

Indeed.

So, now that you're our attorney, spud and I need to discuss some .... let's call them 'business dealings' .. under the purview of attorney/client privilege.   Just sit in the corner and not listen, thanks.

Eggsactly.  If nothing changes, I'm afraid this is trending to Jonathan Isaac territory, sadly.

That verse seems a bit strange to apply to Beyonce.  This feels like one of those "if you don't believe the exact same things I do you are a tool of Satan and the forces of darkness" type of thing.

Ephesians 5:11 - Take no part in the fruitless works of darkness

Pretty vague to apply to an entertainer like Beyonce and seems like this kind of moment:

  At least go for a black metal band or something that wears the faux Satanic worship thing as part of their marketing.
