WOMEN - A HOME FOR GOD'S PENIS....WHAT?

     No, this is not Joba Chamberlain's look-a-like. This is Megachurch pastor Mark Driscoll, who is currently under fire for a sexist comment he made and now the Pacific Northwest church he founded has been forced to shutter some its locations and slash staff after he said women were created as a "very nice home" for God's penis. That's right! Women were created as a "very nice home" for God's penis. Should I say it again? 

     Seattle-based Mars Hill Church, cited a 40% drop in attendance and acknowledging the personal crisis surrounding its founder. The church will have to lay off 40% of its 100 staffers and they announced that they will have to shut down at least three churches from Seattle to Phoenix. Driscoll apologized to his congregation and took a six week leave of absence after it was discovered that he wrote a blog post patronizing women in 2001 under a pseudonym, William Wallace II.

     Driscoll allegedly wrote in this blog, "The first thing to know about your penis is, that despite the way it may seem, it is not your penis. Ultimately, God created you and it is his penis. You are simply borrowing it for a while. While HIS penis is on loan you must admit that it is sort of just hanging out there very lonely as if it needed a home, sort of like a man wandering the streets looking for a house to live in. Knowing that his penis would need a home, God created a women to be your wife and when you marry her and look down you will notice that your wife is shaped differently than you and makes a very nice home." What the hell is this guy talking about? Where the hell did he get his pastor's license?  He had to have purchased it online. Though, I find his writings absolutely absurd, I also kind of find it pretty hilarious.

     Driscoll started Mars Hill as a Bible study class from his home in 1996. The church grew to 15 locations and he has thousands of followers who download his sermons weekly. In his apology, Driscoll seemed to blame the media and the media age, but the one thing I have to say about that is that he wrote this on a blog. A blog is a public forum. How can you blame the media age if you're the who wrote the message on the media site. The words came from you. They weren't generated by the media. Driscoll needs to own up to his actions and stop blaming anyone, but himself. He's supposed to be a pastor and people look to him for help. Then again, I never knew that women were created as a "very nice home" for God's penis. Maybe I should join his church? The guy sounds like he might be onto something! What's in next week's sermon? Man's face and penis was created as a "very nice seat" for God's vagina? Just sayin'...
