Happened to my grand parents’ church in the 90s. They had this big disagreement over rocks (not joking) and then the infighting tore the church apart. Half of the group left and built their own building across the street and the other half stayed. Neither church ever really recovered from that.
Please don't leave us hanging on the details
Probably a disagreement about what kind of rock was best for stoning impure women and children.
Or for translating golden plates left by ancient Mesoamerican Jews in upstate New York.
"Are there any women in this crowd?"
I replied on the other thread. https://lemmy.world/comment/11678263
This is why we fought, they're minerals!
Rocks? Was it Church for Geologists? lmao
There was a children’s summer program where they painted crosses on rocks and other symbols of faith, like the Jesus fish. They were having the kids hold them in their pockets and hold them while they prayed, like a daily reminder kind of thing but also an arts and crafts idea.
Well, one elder got super pissy about the idea their grandkids were “praying to idols” and got a bunch of parents all hot and bothered. After a bit of handwringing, the church asked the teacher to either step down or leave the church. That triggered the other half of parents who either 1) didn’t see the whole ordeal as such a big problem or 2) liked the teacher and their family. Chaos spiraled from there… all over painted rocks.
Edit: this happened in rural Texas, there wasn’t much going on down there so I’m convinced people did this kind of thing for the mere sport of it.
Amazing that arguments like this were tearing European cities and nations apart 500 years ago. At least this time no one was willing to die for their cause. But you can see how quickly it spirals out of hand.
Hello, fellow mello bellow er!
And the green party in Sweden. Went from a lefty pro environmental party to some crazy anti everything party.
