"Dear Fastback" says, "Try spending the day at any of the local bussinesses near "repent corner" I'm sure your attitude will change after a few hours no less spending all day. It has nothing to do with being threatened by a group of worhipers/preachers..It has to do with them being so freakin annoying hour after hour after hour.. it just gets a little old."

Well, having lived in DeLand for a long, long time and being familiar with the preaching at "repent corner" let's compare the above with actual facts. The preachers are seen and heard at New York and Woodland on Friday afternoons like clockwork.... from about 4pm to 6pm. So... where is this "all day" nonsense coming from? Must be a delusional mind.

Various posters have complained about the preaching bothering their dining out. I don't know the timing of the Friday night preaching, but I have been downtown on Fridays up until 11pm or so, and haven't seen them. My understanding is that they come around 11pm or maybe even a bit later...So where is this complaining about interrupting DINNER coming from? More delusional minds?

"Richard Perez" says how annoying and distracting it is to drivers and pedestrians when preachers shout and wave signs.

Now does anyone THINK for a minute that Mr. Perez has any problems with people shouting and waving signs for his chosen political candidate at the same location? Or, as "WestCoaster" pointed out, there are MANY folks out there holding signs and shouting for car washes and businesses.... Anyone THINK that Mr. Perez has a problem with THEM? Didn't think so.

Those who THINK about it will see the transparent hypocrisy.

But then, when people read these posts and actually THINK about what the complainers actually say, they see how bigoted the complainers actually are.

Why don't you people who are such naysayers just come clean and admit that you don't like the message that they are preaching and leave out the nonsense that you use to so lamely try and justify your position? Probably because you think your lame excuses provide a cover for your prejudice.

You fail miserably.
