John Crowder – The YouTube Prophet

So I just watched this video over at JesusNeedsNewPR and Christian Nightmares about a “preacher” named John Crowder and was really confused. Some kind of super bizarre “communion service” or something. Check it out if you haven’t already.

Anyway, it got me curious: “Who the heck is John Crower?”

So, I turned to the old, reliable Google and what I found made me even more confused.

Instead of reposting a bunch of the bizarro, non-sensical, and non-Christian garbage he’s peddling, I thought I’d share this fascinating segment that Current TV did on him a little while back.

It does a great job of giving you an idea about what this clown is about (as much as that is possible). It’s about 25 min long, but it is absolutely fascinating.

What may be even more unbelievable than this guy’s “approach to the faith”, is the fact that LOTS of people are actually buying in to what he’s saying.

At one point a woman says “What I love about John is, I just see a guy who isn’t divorced from the God he’s talking about. He seems to be living it.”

Well, if that is Christianity, then I’ll be the first to renounce my faith.

    Through all of that, I did not hear a single concrete reference to anything contained in the Bible nor did I hear a single attempt to spread and endorse the specific teachings and message of Jesus contained within the Gospels. I saw nothing inherently Christian about any of that. If you replaced the words “Christianity” and “Jesus” with “Islam” and “Mohammed” or “Hinduism” and “Krishna”, it’d make almost the same amount of (non)sense. Granted, I am only saying that based on what’s contained in the video. There very well may have been more traditional sermons and whatever that were edited out in favor of having more time to air the unconventional stuff, but I doubt it. Though, of course, I could be wrong.
