1. lets us all know not to do business with them!

I hope they will find they - and their supporters - are the true minority

[SCantiGOP]

26. This is fake

It should be obvious when you read it. Read from bottom up and you will see it’s a crude hack of a site.

2. What is an apistolical Lutheran?

I was raised Lutheran, but I have never heard of that variety.

[Skittles]

3. the word is "apostolical"

Last edited Sun Apr 26, 2020, 04:18 PM - Edit history (1)

but....I am not sure how it applies to Lutherans

apostolical - proceeding from or ordered by or subject to a pope or the papacy regarded as the successor of the Apostles; "papal dispensation"

[murielm99]

4. Many Christian denominations

have some sort of hierarchy. There are "free" churches that allow each congregation to do as it pleases. I guess they want all churches to be stand-alones.

How foolish they are. They will go bankrupt.

35. Old/Apostolic Lutherans are a thing in some Great Lakes states. Small, very conservative sects.

[NRaleighLiberal]

5. appalling. sadly, there are these types sprinkled throughout the

gardening businesses. My "avoid" list is longer than my "support" list

[ehrnst]

6. I believe that discrimination based on religion is legally actionable.

7. Here is a link to the website. I see no such notice there. Is this a fake twitter account?

11. Here is a link to another site

"Raising Organic (Naturally Grown) Heirloom Plants takes a special commitment. A commitment one must strive for sustainable agriculture through natural practices in order to maintain good health, and feed future generations of the world to come!

We are 100% Against Monsanto and do not in any (knowingly) way support, purchase or grow Monsanto based companies or products).



Although we are not Certified Organic, we use strict Organic practices while raising all of our plants utilizing Organic materials and methods, 100% free of chemicals and pesticides. The term "Organic" here, is used in this sense meaning a holistic, ecologically-balanced approach to farming, 'the old conventional way'. Conventional methods have been used for centuries until the use of chemicals and synthetic materials were used, requiring a need to separate and define "Organic" growing.

We have made that commitment to using well known conventional Organic practices and know that your visit here with us today means that you have made that very same commitment to yourself, your family and the world around you. "

8. you know

I wish more companies that feel this way would just put it out there so I don't waste my time and especially my money on their hate. And what is this God-fearing? I thought God was love. Why would you fear love? btw, mr or mrs Organic Heirloom Plants - there is nothing Patriotic or Moral about what you are doing.

Sorry, my first cup of coffee hasn't kicked in. Happy Sunday everyone!

[3Hotdogs]

14. That God is love thing is bullshit.

Look what he did to Trump's brain.

[gibraltar72]

9. Sounds like a real God fearing Christstain.

[rickyhall]

10. Fine, go out of business, morons.

12. Here's more info about this company

October 23, 2012 This company is now named Organic Heirloom Pants, same owner, Wendy Wiegert, and same address.

I ordered from her in March, 2012. I have contacted her by mail and Facebook for her website at least 20 times. I never received my order and contacted her in April. I got n excuse of a freeze and reimbursement o follow. A month later, nothing. I contacted her again. She said don't worry, refunds were coming. She refused to respond to the BBB, or me. It's been now 7 months, still nothing.

I now knw why she changed the name of her company!

13. It's a good sized company so she appears to be doing quite well

[Kaleva]

15. she has a notice saying she was hacked

"ANNOUNCEMENT:WE HAVE BEEN HACKED! TO ALL OF OUR WONDERFUL CUSTOMERS!

25. Not they were being sarcastic? nt

[Lonestarblue]

16. The attitude, the grammar, and the misuse of words are all appalling.

I wouldn’t order anything from a company that pushes the religious privilege of its owners over the rights of other people. The religious right wants the privilege to disobey anti-discrimination laws at will—they already have religious freedom.

[marble falls]

23. I think that is a fake grapic.

[Kaleva]

31. Which leads me to believe this is fake.

[ramen]

18. Hang on, before you get the pitchforks out, is this real?

I can see that the business is real but am not seeing anywhere that the business actually said this.

[marble falls]

22. In fact if you go to the businesses web site you get redirected to a "free game" site.

[lark]

19. If I knew anyone in MI, I'd definitely send this to them.

Hate filled pretend Christian who knows zero of the Bible, only how to hate and hurt others for his own white pride.

[Trueblue Texan]

20. Thank you for letting me know...nt

[marble falls]

21. When you go to Organic Heirloom Plants website their page comes up for a second ...

and redirects to a "free games" site. My virus protection will not let it open. I don't know if they are under attack or if or if the whole thing is a scam.

I've noticed in the last few weeks that I've been to addresses for businesses that do that, particularly on Pinterest. I've also had two attacks from addresses in Viet Nam. I've changed all my passwords and will not go on Pinterest anymore.

These are trying times. But I wanted to see a site that discriminates against Lutherans and Muslims.

[Takket]

24. being racist/homophobic/Islamaphobic......

Does not make you "God frearing" or "patriotic".

By violating the country's laws designed to protect the rights of every citizen to enjoy "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness" you are acting the opposite of patriotic.

By showing contempt and hate towards God's children rather then the love and compassion for your fellow man, and refusing the opportunity spread God's gospel to all who may wish to listen, you are committing apostasy against the Christian faith.

Also... fuck you.

EDIT: Appears this may be a hacker? Hopefully true. Will wait and see.

[wallyworld2]

27. I don't believe a word of it

I just don't

I won't pass this along to anyone

It serves no purpose other than spread hate and discontent

I won't be a party to it

[cwydro]

33. I think it's fake too.

People believe everything they see on twitter or Facebook apparently.

[wallyworld2]

42. Yep

It's too easy to run with stuff like this without doing any research.

Thanks

[SaveOurDemocracy]

28. Please consider deleting. See post 15 (Kaleva), owner claims to have been hacked.

[redwing69]

29. Yup... let's dial this back...

Funny when I saw this post, I had feeling this place was in my home town, just because of the specifics mentioned, lol, and yup.
So, can we just delete this whole thread? If these poor folks were hacked the last thing we need to do is put wind behind it.
Let's just give them the benefit of the doubt and take it down.

[essme]

30. Please delete this

This is from their Etsy site:

[onenote]

34. DU shouldn't be a forum for spreading unverified material

This appears to be fake and yet many here accept it without question. Not a good way to handle what one sees on the Internet.

[essme]

36. Thank you

[demmiblue]

37. After reading through some of the replies, I don't think she was hacked.

Apparently, she also deleted her FaceBook account.

[Kaleva]

38. She has a lot of good reviews on etsy

https://www.etsy.com/shop/organicherbals#reviews

[demmiblue]

39. So what? She is a quack and posts shit like this:

[Kaleva]

40. Is that a verified account?
