| What would you say would be the best all-around handgun to purchase for concealed carry, and why? (Anybody can respond to this a question if they have something helpful to say. I just thought Packin' Parsons was a catchy title).Thanks! |

| Zondervan makes some handy size Bibles that a preacher can conceal. Other than that, I would not carry a pistol as a Pastor. I have served in the intercity of LA (Paramount, Compton, Norwalk, North Long Beach, etc) and Phoenix (in west Phoenix, near I-17) and never carried. I'm not called to shoot someone, called to save' someone. We Christians sure do know our guns. |

| As a former pacifist myself, I respect that position still, even though I don't agree with it any longer. I am certainly not going out itching for a fight, nor am I a man of violence who would ever wish to violate the rights of others.In my view, defending the well-being of women, children and one's neighbor against wicked people is not only a right but is in fact a moral duty, and I should like to be better able to do my duty should the occasion arise. May the God of peace soon crush Satan under our feet. |

| Post subject: | Aaron Scott: A paintball gun--seriously |
| A paintball gun can be revved up (air pressure) to LITERALLY go faster than the speed of light!OK, not literally, but I one time hit in the top of the head by a paintball...and I saw stars (and that was under conditions where the pressure could not be set higher than a safe level).Further, a paintball gun with a large hopper can basically fire as fast and furiously as you can pull the trigger. If you had to fire a real gun in church, a miss could spell tragedy for someone. But while a paintball could, technically, kill or blind you, the chances are fairly remote (especially if you have your church all wear safety goggles). But the fact that you can fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire, fire...and keep on until you run out (perhaps two hundred or more rounds)...would make it virtually impossible for anyone to stand up and fire back with any precision. And the paint would allow you to quickly adjust your aim as you need to.Now, I'm not saying having a gun is best for church...but if you feel to do it, then consider a paintball gun. You don't have to worry about open carry, etc.In fact, with the exception of taking on, say, a grizzly, I would even feel fairly safe with a paintball gun in the woods. It just can hit and hit HARD...over and over and over. A wildcat is not going to keep coming if you are nailing it over and over. Besides, even if you had a real gun, you DO have to hit the thing before it stops, most of the time. |

| Mat, son, you could always throw one a Homer's aluminum foil crowns at a intruder an cut em up real good. Homer served in the army during WWI in France. I believe he was a sergeant when the war was over. He experienced real war and death.I did not leave the states when I was in the Corps, but I did experience the struggles of being a pastor in the intercity. I have worked along side law enforcement, but I was not there to be another cop. I'm there to be a pastor. |
