Why not?

Fundamentalist wackos that believe the Bible should be read literally and is inerrant, contrary to hard evidence that it is not. They, for some reason, must believe that the Bible is something more than spiritual guidance. Their relationship with the Bible is bibliolatry and heresy.
That, and I like to dance every once in a while, have a drink on occasion, sing to instrumental accompaniment, and abhor hypocrites.

Yeah, it's amazing how these "Christians" can make scriptures mean what they want.
Bill has said he drinks on occasion because he doesn't believe it to be wrong biblically. But he will twist other scriptures to mean that people can be eternally sincere & be saved forever no matter what they do. Of course, if they do anything wrong, he says they were never saved. He's one of the biggest hypocrites/liars I've ever seen BUT we're supposed to believe he is still saved. I guess just like that gift of writing God gave him, he also gave him the gift of being a good hypocrite & liar.
I have a friend that's one of those Baptist that believe you'll go to Hell if you take a drink and/or gamble. But she is one of the biggest gossips you would ever meet AND she tells lies about other people. BUT she believes she is saved. Go figure!
Raised Baptist. Danced, had music in our church and home. No drinkers in my family, but that was because none of my family cared for the taste of it. I still don't, except for an occasional margarita. And I do mean occasional, sometimes two a year, sometimes none. I never heard dancing spoken against in my church. I didn't, and still don't know, any baptists that act like bill. He's like those westboro lunatics that just make it up as they go along. The only thing I can figure out is he's in some sort of twisted, weird, mixed up filipino cult.
The likes of Bill were all over my hometown. The reference to music is about the CoC, they sing a cappella.

Well, the ones that acted like that were from the "church of the thumping bible and snake kissers" or some mess like that, and the women had the hair piled up like marge simpson and wore dresses down to their ankles with socks and tennis shoes, and like I said, I didn't know or grow up with them.
they're still all over colbert co. i suspect three or four of our fellow forumites are cut from that cloth.

Yes, but will "borrow" a baptist church for their wedding because they want music, and their preacher will go into the church and conduct the ceremony. Hypocrite much?

You can see them coming from a mile off. They also believe make-up to be a sin. Though you will rarely see a man with them in public, it's funny to watch them if you do see one. They nearly trip over their own feet looking at an attractive woman as she walks by. The plain little wife, of course, turns the other way as though she doesn't notice.

That's funny. Didn't know that happened.
oh yes.. and they have the reception at the country club or the music hall of fame reception hall... so they can serve alcohol.
crusty, these are the same people who vote no for a lottery and take sunday drives, after church, to the TN line, for lottery tickets!
I do know that many are hypocrites, but actually having a wedding in another church is LOL ridiculous.
And they will use the piano or a CD with just music so some members of their choir can sing at a funeral.
I've also been to weddings in a COC where they will use a CD of the wedding march because they have no piano in the church. Hypocrites, every last one of them.

Odd, very odd. Seems they'd be afraid their union was "jinxed".
if the C0C does it you can bet it's scriptural. QED
Unlike denominations the C0C does not see a building as anything other than a building.
that sure doesn't explain the 'work around' for the music or alcohol.
sure seems like one big 'cop out' to me.
