    Brother Vincent Love needs our support!

    Friends, some of you may recall me telling you that I was run off the restaurant review site Yelp quite some time ago, because the regular users there are a bunch of bigots who hate Christianity and don't like to hear that their vulgar lifestyles are not pleasing to God.

    I've steered well clear of that vile site, but a really nice person from my Bible fellowship, a guy named Vincent, has gone and gotten himself mired in that cesspool.

    He's been trying to witness to the losers there and turn their faces toward the light, but their attacks and sex talk are obviously starting to get to him, as he is now contemplating deleting his account:

    I'm thinking about closing down my Yelp account.



    Vincent "America First!" L. says:

    I came on here because I'm on fire for the Lord, and wanted to share with you the Good News of Jesus Christ. I was hoping to engage in some stimulating, lively discussions and answer any and all Biblical questions any of you may have had.

    Unfortunately, true to form, the Yelp communty reacts with hostility and defensiveness to any information or opinions which threaten your secular liberal "anything goes" world view.

    I am rapidly approaching the point where I will be at my whit's end. If any of you would like to keep in touch with me, please forward your contact information to me via personal messaging.

    Thank you and God bless.
    Read the above referenced Talk thread, and I'm sure you'll share my frustration at the way he's being attacked, especially by those who presume to school him on matters of Biblical truth.

    Honestly, look at the crap he's having to deal with, from a woman who claims to be a Christian, no less:



    Adriane "a nice piece of class" P. says:

    And a *true* Christian doesn't judges others because they'd know there is one true judge....The Lord.

    And they'd know people can't be saved by acts alone, but faith. That's right tattoed (btw the there's nothing in the New Testament about tattoos, just the Old aka the Torah), gay, bi, makeup wearer can be saved.

    If you wanna match up with scripture I'm ready but there is nothing in the New Testament or words of Jesus about sexual orientation or tattoos or makeup.
    I'm tempted to open up another Yelp account of my own just so I can come to his defense, but I feel it's best if I stay off that site. If any of you feel like posting in that thread, though, and expressing a little Christian solidarity, I'm sure it would give the poor guy a real boost.

    Act fast, because it's only a matter of time before the intolerant haters at Yelp HQ delete the entire conversation!

    Well Vincent just forwarded the following e-mail to me, and I am fit to be tied! The poor fellow can't even defend himself online for the next week!

      Brother Vincent is really going all-out in his effort to win over the idiots on Yelp:

      Vincent Love's Ice Cream Social and Bible Reading Marathon





      Category:
      Food

      When:
      Sunday, May 13, 2012 5:00 am
      Add to Calendar

      Where:
      Sigmund Stern Grove
      4.5 star rating
      based on 79 reviews
      2750 19th Ave
      San Francisco, CA 94132

      Cost:
      Free

      Submitted by:
      Vincent L.
      Vincent L. See all of Vincent L.'s events »

      What/Why:
      The gallons and gallons of premium ice cream are on the house!

      Come early, because your friend Vincent Love will begin reading from the 1611 King James Bible promptly at 6:00AM. He's going to start with Genesis 1:1, and he's not stopping 'til he finishes the last verse of Revelation!

      Please note that this is a family friendly, alcohol-free event.

      Quite frankly, I don't know why he's making the effort. That old saw about casting one's pearls before swine comes to mind.

      I did get a kick out of reading his Yelp review of Yelp, though:

      Vincent's review of Yelp


      I recently received an e-mail from Yelp informing me that because I had allegedly been fighting with other people in Yelp's chat forum, my chat room privileges would be suspended for one week.

      So I am forced to sit here in silent impotence for committing no greater crime than reminding people that God loves them and has a special plan for their lives. Meanwhile, the anti-Christian bigots on Yelp chat are free to run amok, slandering me, attacking religion, and inciting hate crimes against religious people.

      Why, then, would I give Yelp a five star review? Well it's very simple: The Bible tells us that when we are persecuted for our belief in God, our blessings are MULTIPLIED, and those who slander us will be put to SHAME!

      1 Peter 3:16

      Having a good conscience; that, whereas they speak evil of you, as of evildoers, they may be ashamed that falsely accuse your good conversation in Christ.

      Luke 6:22

      Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you from their company, and shall reproach you, and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake.

      THANK YOU, YELP HQ, FOR MULTIPLYING MY BLESSINGS!

      His review of Hooters also gave me much inspiration:

      Vincent's review of Hooters

      I don't know which is more disgusting here- the greasy, adulterated food, or the mental adultery every male customer surely commits every time he looks at a waitress in her skimpy attire.

      I reluctantly met some men from work here, and I was so appalled by what I saw that I wanted to leave immediately. Our waitress was a very nice, sweet girl, and I knew in my heart she was meant for better things than this, so I shared the following verse with her:

      1 Timothy 2:9
      In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array;

      Unfortunately, she was not receptive.

      Two stars because she tried hard to give us good service. If I was just rating the Hooters organization, I would give it minus one hundred stars.

        What is the point to the pic of a chinoseria fellating an ice cream cone? Obviously a prelude to manga or some other ghastly oriental subversion.
        Come climb my mountains.

          I asked Vincent about that, and he said everybody on Yelp is obsessed with Asian women.

          (Just between you and me, I kind of suspect Vincent himself may possibly have a case of "yellow fever.")
