God uses Grindr too

god-on-grindrImagine logging onto Grindr and being asked to go to church. Sounds weird, right? It may, but it is true for the likes of Michael James Alexander Szalapski, who uses Grindr to lure other gay men to mass at his Methodist church in Clarksville, Tennessee.

He confessed in an interview with filmmaker Christian Hendricks that he uses the app only to “let people know that you can be gay and be a Christian,” because he claims most gay people think God hates them.

Would you block or chat someone who started chatting about God to you?

  1. Religion is not a valid topic of discussion. By definition they are excusing themselves from logic and reason by holding and professing unprovable unjustifiable positions as a matter of faith. There is no merit in engaging with such people.

  2. This guy seems pretty open minded. Why do you think think any conversations about spirituality need to be about right and wrong?

    You could say the same about you being locked into your anti Christian views instead of being open minded and respectful of others beliefs when they’re not hurting you. Otherwise your showing exactly the same ignorance the conservatives have.

  3. Engaging with the religious is not a smart policy.

    The movie “Thank You for Smoking” is worth watching. The protagonist pointed out that engaging in a debate (in his case with anti-smoking advocates) isn’t about convincing the other person that you’re right, because they are as hell-bent about their view. They’re locked in. It’s the audience that matters.

    Unfortunately on Grindr there’s no audience, except on your own profile page. Short of putting a brief “No Jesus Freaks” line into my bio, the only good option is to block the jesus freaks.
