Yep. Horrible stuff. Makes you want to tap your foot. Everyone knows that leads to dancing. Don't forget those square dances. The fiddle is the devil's instrument!

Today this would be called fat shaming.

In high school, a classmate, (potential girlfriend), talked me into attending her church one Sunday morning. I was a regular at another, but hey... she was cute. I was singled out as a newcomer, and asked to stand & introduce myself... then listened for what seemed like a half hour harangue about my attending the "sock hop" after our Friday nite home game. I left mid-harangue and went back to my regular church. She never asked me again. I heard from a mutual friend that her dad forbade her to talk to me. Her "cuteness" wore off before I got to the exit. I like to think I traded up...

@Griff ... there are lots of "sermons" that folks should have walked out from. I have endured some and probably preached some!

[Scott Tschirhart]

I don’t have a problem walking out on a sermon and have done so several times over the years. Don’t make a scene, just quietly pick up my hat and leave.

[JimT]

I agree Scott. I have done the same.

[Bill in Oregon]

I'd have caught Hades from Dad if I ever walked out on a sermon.

[JimT]

Me too Bill! I waited til I was older.

You guys know why the other church in town, down the road, forbids its parishioners to make whoopee standing up, right?

Might lead to dancing!
