The Protestant Pope

 

"You won´t believe what people do in the name of God,
my dear Hassein, and then blame it on me!"

The number of weird religious groups never ceases to amaze me. And you, I gather. The link below goes to Magnus Lundberg´s previously mentioned blog. 

Apparently, a few "Protestants" have declared themselves "popes", including a brother in South Africa, whose religious group turns taverns and bars into churches...except that they really don´t, the churches continuing to serve alcohol as a "sacrament". And no, I don´t mean the communion wine!

The future of the Gabola Church, as Pope Makiti´s group is called, is apparently uncertain, since the South African government closed all establishments serving alcohol during the COVID pandemic. This obviously created problems for this pro-alcoholic Church.

But sure, I suppose Makiti might be a person who under the cover of being pro-alcohol really wants to trick people into drinking less than usual...
