These are Moonies, as in Sun Myung Moon. His son now runs the church.
NEWFOUNDLAND, Pa. (Reuters) – Hundreds of couples toting AR-15 rifles packed a Unification church in Pennsylvania on Wednesday to have their marriages blessed and their weapons celebrated as “rods of iron” that could have saved lives in a recent Florida school shooting.
“Each of us is called to use the power of the ‘rod of iron’ not to arm or oppress as has been done in satanic kingdoms of this world, but to protect God’s children,” he said, citing the Book of Revelation in the Bible.
“If the football coach who rushed into the building to defend students from the shooter with his own body had been allowed to carry a firearm, many lives, including his own, could have been saved,” Moon’s statement said.
Someone tell me how to feel about this.
Man that is weird
“Someone tell me how to feel about this.”
Soiled.
The only thing that bothers me about this is that the Left will use it to portray AR-15 owners as a bunch of cultist, lunatic fringe types, which is how the Moonies are seen by many people. Other than that, I’m good with it. Truth is truth, no matter who speaks it.
It’s either nuts with guts or clowns with frowns.
This scares me as a resident of Pa but then again the moonies don’t practice jihad or want to forcibly convert me or my children.
They’re just old fashioned American loonies.
Yeah, well, AR’s also protect ‘loons’ like 0bama, madonna, etc. lol.
Those crazies would probably make good neighbors.
The edit function is back! WOOHOO!

To me, the blessing of a marriage, and the celebration of the use of “rods of iron” should be two separate events. I don’t have a problem with either, but I would not blend the two.
Koreans with guns made quite a difference during the “Rodney King” LA riots.
And… I doubt if any Muslim shithead will ever shoot up a Unification Church n
Too bad they lumped marriage together in the blessing of firearms. We bless cars, dogs, our homes, obviously our people, our solders going into battle, among all types of blessings.
Why not bless our arms. We pray that our guns are vehicles of good and deterrents to evil. We pray for our victory in war. I think our bombs shoul be blessed, asking they they be used for good outcomes, and for God’d will only.
Guess I didn’t get my edit done in time. Oops.
I’d druther have a Moonie in the foxhole with me than a papist; less chance of being shot in the back.
I’ll trust my LCMS Pastor – he builds his own AR-15’s. >:->
Burger King crowns are in short supply in northeast PA.
