    I'm guessing he's never cleaned a toilet in his life. Maybe a "man" doesnt do that.
  • Tyler Braun · 1 year ago
    you and eugene cho are in love with this pee sitting down stuff. i do admit...it is pretty funny.
  • Katie P · 1 year ago
    Tell me that their Youtube channel has at least a few shots of the people sitting in the pews. Are they bobbing their heads in agreement? Are they slack-jawed to the sound of crickets? What is going on in there?
  • supersimbo · 1 year ago
    I pee sitting down sometimes, tis nice to take the weight off my legs as i relieve my bladder!
  • supersimbo · 1 year ago
    "We believe that the King James Bible is the word of God without error." i love these people. I manage a Christian Bookstore in Ireland and i heard a customer warning another customer about the New King James the other day. She said that "on greeting cards you can get caught out because they just abbreviate it to nkjv and people get fooled into thinking thats the word of God BUT ITS NOT!! Its a greeting card...............you bozo! these people are mental

    pansy.
  • Vince · 1 year ago
    The 1611 King James was good enough for Jesus, so it's good enough for me.
  • Pete W · 1 year ago
    I saw this a few days ago. It is somewhat shocking. Though I guess you've already seen it, you may want to watch this too:

  • JC · 1 year ago
    I started to pee watching this, and then hurried to a wall to finish my business!

    Oh, and in case he's reading through your comments, that stands for "oh my giggles."

    I don't wanna get slammed or something.
  • Abs · 1 year ago
    What the %*#$? Are you kidding me? You've got to be kidding me.

    There is never a shortage of crazies in the pulpit...
  • gbrad@mag · 1 year ago
    YO THAT brother really needs to pick his battles . . . or his nose . . . or friends nose . . . actually the original Hebrew says Strong's H8366 shathan- to make water; urinate-piss does not seem to indicate manhood or pansyhood or any other kind of hood Preach Christ Bruh, please? Especially if you're gonna be that loud.
  • Abe · 1 year ago
    Is that Jack from LOST?...:)
  • Skyler Goodman · 1 year ago
    Awesome!!! I was offended by this...but then i realized I actually was peeing sitting down. It was night time, dark, didnt want to miss the seat....you know how it go.
  • S. Pihlaja · 1 year ago
    Most Japanese men have to pee sitting down too because women don't like the splatter.
  • Esteban · 1 year ago
    "His piss has power," such a good video.
  • -Justin- · 1 year ago
    So Jack from LOST becomes a Baptist preacher after he gets rescued from the island...
  • Ken · 1 year ago
    What say ye? I SIT and piss against the wall.............NOT
  • Kris Sorensen · 1 year ago
    hahahahah - I laughed so hard a little tinkle came out... unfortunately I was sitting down - dang it!
  • kim · 1 year ago
    I try really hard not to be sarcastic about churches and church leaders. I fail usually.

    thanks for the test thou hast offered up to me.

    Behold. I sucketh.
  • Chris Green · 1 year ago
    His last words were: "You better know I'm gonna pee standing up everywhere I go."

    Well, although I may be arrested, tomorrow, I will piss against a wall. Carlos, bail me out dude. "It's in the Bible."

    Now that sermon was annointed!!
  • Duane · 1 year ago
    I literally just laughed and spit soda out of my mouth onto my desk ...
    I almost hit my laptop... unbelievable!!!
    Very Funny....
    Thanks...I needed that!!
  • Akash · 1 year ago
    Looks like the dharma initiative got to him.

    I like his essay "What's Wrong with Male Gynecologists?"
  • David · 1 year ago
    So if the NIV editors pee sitting down...

    The Message editors pee ___________?
  • Chris · 1 year ago
    I'd like to be a real man, too, but sometimes I gotta do more than pee when I hit the loo. Do I have to take care of one need and then the other? Is there a manly order that they need to be done in? Sitting down is still ok for the other, right?
  • Aaron · 1 year ago
    I bet you could make mad cash pressure washing that Church building.
  • Loran · 1 year ago
    Is this guy for real?
  • Mandy · 1 year ago
    I've seen this before. His name is Steven L. Anderson. He founded a church in Tempe Arizona. There are several other videos on his website. They're all just as disturbing. Interestingly enough, the majority of his congregation are female. Pretty sure they sit down, even after the "hell & damnation" sermon.
  • debra parker · 1 year ago
    I have seen this! It is hilarious!
  • DanaTheGreat · 1 year ago
    I was truly born in the wrong era (turning 50 this year)! Y'all are much cooler than we were. We would have just nodded our heads and taken whatever this guy could throw at us (that could be smelly). At least you have blogs with which to laugh about him afterward! We just passed notes in church and hoped our parents didn't catch us! Los, we're so glad you're here in "da ATL!"
  • Lemmings · 1 year ago
    I think this guy is preaching in his basement to his stuffed animals - which probably all sit down to pee.
  • Tara · 1 year ago
    I'm in awe. Seriously. Wow. What a guy... I mean MAN.
  • Chris · 1 year ago
    According to his church "Doctrines" page, they are against "all forms of abortion including... IVF (In Vitro Fertilization)..."

    Huh?
  • ryan · 1 year ago
    you should go to this guys' church's website and read some of his "essays." i'm tellin ya, entertainment for hours, especially where he lists all of the "sins" he preaches agains, such as "women wearing pants, television, mixed swimming, women working, secular music, contemporary christian music, etc."

    i do find it interesting that he thinks television is of the devil, because of the evil influences it lets into your house, but he allows his wife to have her own blog, so apparently television is evil, but the internet is just fine...

    seriously, just go read some of the essays.
  • callmetravis · 1 year ago
    I wonder how Eugene Peterson pees? Laying down reading his Message?
    This is why YouTube is alive and well...
  • callmetravis · 1 year ago
    This guy wrote a great poem, too.
    http://www.faithfulwordbaptist.org/poem.html
  • Amy Storms · 1 year ago
    Hilarious and unbelievable.

    His family blog has banners for Ron Paul, and his church site has an essay entitled, "What's Wrong With Male Gynecologists?" But...isn't Ron Paul a gynecologist?

    But I suppose that's the least of this guy's problems, isn't it? :)
  • ryan · 1 year ago
    i read the poem a couple of days ago, and i was fascinated by how much a guy who doesn't own a television knows about modern TV shows.
  • portorikan · 1 year ago
    Where can I become a member? I've been peeing sitting down for too long.

    I WANT TO BE A MAN!!!!!
  • ryan · 1 year ago
    David, i think the Message editors pee on male gynecolegists, according to Pastor Anderson...
  • Brad Metzger · 1 year ago
    That's old school terminology right there.

    When my bro used to rock the mullet back in our mid-80s Gwinett County days, my grand-dad would ask him "What gives, Alice? You piss sittin' down?"

    ///snicker.
  • Matty · 1 year ago
    Umm....I don't really know what to say about this. I read all the previous comments and I am still (nearly) speechless. I will say that there's probably a connection between the content of his sermons and the fact that he appears to be preaching in a room the size of a broom closet...with 2 pianos...weird....
  • M · 1 year ago
    Have you ever seen "Blakes Big Mistake" ? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMvZClNcch8
  • Travis · 1 year ago
    I am sad to say that this guy actually is a pastor near me. Just looked at a list of his sermon titles which included, "Bible College is Unbiblical", "Billy Graham is going to hell" and last but not least "A time to hate" where he talked about homosexuality.

    Prime example of why so many people can't stand Christians.
  • Derek Sweatman · 1 year ago
    i'm guessing he hunts too.

  • Dan · 1 year ago
    I needed a good cry. Who knew it would come from laughing this hard?
  • aaron · 1 year ago
    Hope he doesn't get diarrhea!
  • Ruthie · 1 year ago
    Are you kidding me?!?! Why must we be plagued with pastors who just want to talk? Just spewing words to fill up time because he lacks substance. "Jesus loves you, unless you pee sitting up. Male!" God forbid.
  • Worshipfan · 1 year ago
    You know, I ran accross this video a week or so ago, and I too posted it on my blog....along the lines of how funny/disturbing/absurd it was. I showed it to my family and I laughed. But, for the last few hours all I can think about is the fact that this guy, misguided and misinformed though he may be, is a part of the Body of Christ. I'm pretty sure he and I would agree on almost nothing from a theological or church standpoint, but he is my brother. I had to take the post and video down from my blog....I'm so afraid to send the message to the world or the church that says "if you screw up we will go after you like a bunch of wild dogs" AND, if I have to see this guy in heaven, I hope I can look him in the eye!

    No condemnation here AT ALL...this is my conviction. I love your style, I love what you write and I share alot of your thoughts about worship and the church.

    Just wanted to present the other side of the coin so to speak.....Love ya!
  • Trevor · 1 year ago
    He's a man. He's 40. He pissith against a wall.

    This must have been a flash forward not a flashback.
  • Greg · 1 year ago
    Love this quote from their website:

    Pastor Anderson holds no college degree but has well over 100 chapters of the Bible committed to memory, including almost half of the New Testament.
  • Jesse · 1 year ago
    His sermon ran short, so he decided he would try some shock and awe, what he didn't realize is that it was shockingly aweful! Our bathroom is right next to the living room, so when we have compnay and I have to pee, everyone can the ode to the waterfall, so I sit down to keep it quiet, but only when we have company.
  • Ruthie · 1 year ago
    And I meant sitting down, of course...
  • tunz · 1 year ago
    I am just guessing, but I bet when God discusses this with Mr Anderson, he will be pissing down his leg...
  • DetzelPretzel · 1 year ago
    I pee standing on my head.
  • tunz · 1 year ago
    I have to wonder what they do with this scripture...

    Lo, I have given thee cow's dung for man's dung,and thou shalt prepare thy bread therewith.--Ezekiel 4:15
  • Rhi · 1 year ago
    wow, he's such a rebel! that's funny and yet kind of pathetic that this is his major topic of the day. I hope this was a bible study session. I really pray this isn't his evangelism sermon
  • gary · 1 year ago
    Here's another one. I thought this was a joke until he got to his first point.

  • Terrace Crawford · 1 year ago
    Yea its funny...and sad too.
  • Caleb Porter · 1 year ago
    I laughed at first but then realized he was serious and then it actually made me kinda sad.
  • justin aka j rocka · 1 year ago
    its hard to read standing up.
  • Chris · 1 year ago
    don't get me wrong...i had a good hard laugh at this. all 10 times i have seen it...

    the thing that scares me about this is if we start thinking we're better than someone like this we may fall to the same thing. We just gotta be careful we guard our hearts even against pride in things like this.
  • Los · 1 year ago
    But I think it is fine when we call "whack" when we see it.
    And "whack" is what I see.
  • Chris · 1 year ago
    Los I agree with ya.
  • Naz · 1 year ago
    I'm glad they cut the video before his demonstration.
  • Dave · 1 year ago
    bizarre
  • pete · 1 year ago
    great googily moogily!

    So, who's gonna tell him the Truth? I read this this morning... 1 Corinthians 5:12-13...

    "What business is it of mine to judge those outside the church? Are you not to judge those inside? God will judge those outside."
  • Worshipfan · 1 year ago
    Truth is good....and he probably does need to hear it - from somebody with authority in his life.

    I would submitt, however, that public mocking in a Christian forum isn't going to bring much truth.

    I'm having difficulty accepting that public humiliation is a valid form of confrontation....even when the behavior of the individual would seem to warrent the mockery...it's still not okay!
  • rick · 1 year ago
    he said pisseth....oh how I love being a ragamuffin.
  • Toad · 1 year ago
    This is exactly what I needed this morning. It's comforting to know that there are people who are tackling the tough issues in todays world.
  • Llama Momma · 1 year ago
