Father Justin was also a hardliner on social and sexual issues.

"The Catholic Church," it told us, "teaches that masturbation is a grave moral disorder."

No, I would say Justin is about the same level of strange in the ways that matter

Is there anything in the Bible that says you can't use Gatorade in a baptism? What if it's a baptismal emergency and there's no water, but a six-pack of Gatorade Arctic Blitz?

The Very Serious brand of Christianity that I came out of as a kid, the church of Christ, condemned people to hell if they weren't fully immersed when baptized.

You know, among other things like letting women talk or using instruments or during worship.
