On a recent Sunday morning at the Word of Life Assembly of God Church, pink-cheeked Virginia native David Gorman skipped in a conga line in Swahili Sunday school while a Kenyan preacher played an accordion and a Singaporean woman led jubilant hymns. Filipinos analyzed Bible passages in a classroom.
Later, as the Sierra Leonean choir prepared to perform in the sanctuary, D. Wendel Cover, the folksy white pastor, listed the nations of the world and asked worshipers to stand when they heard their homelands.
He seemed a bit dismayed to find just 80 represented.
"Our country's becoming more international," Cover, 73, said in an interview. He has led the formerly majority-white Pentecostal church for three decades. "The next generation is going to be American. If the church doesn't realize that, they're going to lose a whole generation."
The Springfield church, congregants often say, is a glimpse of heaven -- a "multitude" of nations and tongues, as the Book of Revelation puts it.
And what does heaven look like?
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Roundworms may infect close to a quarter of inner city black children, tapeworms are the leading cause of seizures among U.S. Hispanics and other parasitic diseases associated with poor countries are also affecting Americans, a U.S. expert said on Tuesday.
Recent studies show many of the poorest Americans living in the United States carry some of the same parasitic infections that affect the poor in Africa, Asia, and Latin America,
He said up to 2,000 new cases of neurological disease caused by tapeworms are diagnosed every year in the United States. More than 2 percent of adult Latinos may be infected, and with 35 million Hispanics in the United States, this could add up to tens of thousands of cases, Hotez said.
"In the hospitals of Los Angeles, California, neurocysticercosis currently accounts for 10 percent of all seizures presenting to some emergency departments," he wrote.
Heaven is also approximately 60,000 murdered Americans in the last six years. It’s also drug-resistant tuberculosis, malaria, leprosy, plague, polio, dengue, and Chagas disease, and Now parasitic Worms…
Also (keeping the above picture in mind) remember that these people are handling the food you and your family eat at various points along the food chain: restaurants, store shelves, vegetable fields, et…
But.....somewhere some Christians are patting themselves on their backs for their tolerance in swamping an already over populated, rapidly crumbling America with more and more non-whites in a world where non-whites are already nearly 90% of the population.
And lets not forget the Corporate CEO's who have, astoundingly, convinced the peoples of The West that the presence of a sea of unskilled, low IQ third worlders who, not only drive down Western wages and standards of living, but also are numerically and genetically replacing them in their own lands, is actually a good thing!
Yes, Christianity and Corporate America! Working hand-in-hand to bring about heaven on Earth, one worm infested immigrant at a time...
