Exposing the underbelly of Armstrongism in all of its wacky glory! Nothing you read here is made up. What you read here is the up to date face of Herbert W Armstrong's legacy. It's the gritty and dirty behind the scenes look at Armstrongism as you have never seen it before!
With all the new crazy self-appointed Chief Overseers, Apostles, Prophets, Pharisees, legalists, and outright liars leading various Churches of God today, it is important to hold these agents of deception accountable.
Herbert Armstrong's Tangled Web of Corrupt Leaders

Feast Clothing
What the well dressed Flurryite will be wearing at the Feast this year:
Admit it, don't you want one!!!!!!
Just think how great it will be wearing this as you watch the World Series or a football game as satan takes away your salvation!
My question is, why advertize Armstrong university on a sweet shirt? No one out side the PCG knows what Armstrong U. is and I would guess that the very few that might know would not consider appling to be admitted as a student.
This organization is so exclusivist that the leadership wouldn't even consider any one who wasn't at least a perspective member of the PCG to be a student at Armstrong U.
"My question is, why advertize Armstrong university on a sweet shirt? "
Anon, I'm entirely certain this was done not for advertising, but to give the students and faculty (likely the only people who would wear this) the feeling of being part of a normal college. Gives them that "off to college!" feeling - sans the accreditation and real-world post-graduation job prospects.
I just cannot picture HWA college students walking around Edmund OK wearing this junk! How embarrassing that must be! It is no more a college than LCG's so called Living University is a university!
I picture a black sweatshirt with the following graphics: A depiction of the lion eating the lamb, and the little child running away in terror. Surrounded by this, are Gothic letters spelling out "Embarrassing College". That is on the front.
On the rear, we see, in large red letters: HWA-666.
Oh please No2, after making them all participate in the "Young Ambassador" program (http://www.hwacollege.org/org-hwacollege-www/en/docs/Young_Ambassadors/Default.asp) , hoodies are a walk in the park :-p
Just got another thought. I seriously doubt that Flurry's students would be allowed to be seen wearing a Jesus Christ sweatshirt, an NoTW (not of this world) shirt, or a 3:16 shirt! No sir, only a Herbolatry shirt will do!
N02HWA is right, it would be embarrassing to wear that around Edmund where enough people know about the kooky reputation of PCOG. Otherwise, you might run into a few people who know who HWA was which is bad enough or mostly those who have no idea. How would you like to explain that to people? How to explain and clean up a cult leader who has been dead for twenty five years and inspires only a small and dying off membership?
It would be embarrassing for most sane folks to parade around promoting an un-accredited college named after an insignificant cult leader. But, remember the mind set of those who attend there: they are convinced that they are in the one and only, mostest truest of all, still adhering to the truth, church of gawd. A source of pride to say the least! They are the envy of most all at the church family day picnic. PCG parent sees hoody and pokes child and says "why can't you be more like Johnny?"*
About the time one sees the light and would be embarrassed by said hoody is also about the time one drops the whole corrupt ball of wax.
*Sorry: no offense meant to any reader here named Johnny.

ReplyDeleteThis organization is so exclusivist that the leadership wouldn't even consider any one who wasn't at least a perspective member of the PCG to be a student at Armstrong U.
I'd like to see a "Worm-Ass-Der College" sweatshirt.
ReplyDeleteOn the front could be a picture of a half-rotten Herbie-face with worms traveling through his eyeball sockets.
The back can have the image of a coffin, with the text, "Worms even eat rotting splinters!"
I'm somewhat of a WCG fashion icon(with my leisure suits and all), so I'll also give the following fashion advice-
Pair the above sweatshirt with a trendy pair of matching sweatpants that have, "SURRENDER, DOROTHY!" written across the ass.
Dat's how U B stylin' at da feest, mah peeps!

The funny clothes are just a minor issue in the PCG.
ReplyDeleteThe real problem is all the old, demon-inspired, lying predators in the PCG.
On the bright side, it would be helpful if these PCG perverts all wore identifying clothes so they could be easily spotted and avoided.
Diablo,
ReplyDeleteI did not realize there was a website store (or, even a website store with a joke section).
But that shirt you linked to is ignorant enough to render it "very funny"!
Thanks,
Norm
Diablo,
ReplyDeleteI did not know there was a "HWA-Haters blog"
Do you have a URL for it?
How long have you been reading it?
You wrote-
And the 'editor' has a low tolerance for his own brand of humor.
Interesting. Does that mean the editor removes most of his own humorous remarks?
