Trekkie Pastor Orders Attack on Lesbians Instead of Klingons

[Stingo]

Two lesbians walk into a church in search of the man they want to support in the election for mayor of Memphis. There they find a bizarre set-up, with a Pastor dressed as a Trekkie and a ritual dance that evolved into a ritual wilding. They escaped with minor injuries, but doesn’t this sound more like a reality show than like a house of worship?

1. Dude, didn't he see "The Outcast"?

The Outcast episode summary on Wikipedia

2. An abominable calumny against Trekkies -

these freaks were NOT Trekkies, have nothing to do with Trekkies, and as the Trekkie universe is essentially 'post-religious' this is antithetical to anything Trekkies would associate themselves with.

One guy's funny jacket does not justify smearing the Trekkie community with this bigotry.

3. My abject apologies

I should have included the Spock quote about the crime. "This is illogical. . . where's the pics?"

4. Misleading headline by Allspin

Reading the article, the only "Trekkie-ish" thing about the pastor was his Nehru-jacket outfit, which wasn't even actually a Trek thing (though there are similarities in styling).

Clicking on the link it gives for the pastor, he doesn't mention Trek at all. From his "Interests" list:
Movies: "Batman" "Shaft" "Training Day" "American Gangster"
Television: "Martin" and "BAMM The TV Show"
Books: "PowerNomics" by Dr. Claud Anderson "At Canaan's Edge" by Taylor Branch "Pretty Woman Too" by Sheila Whalum

7. So, he's in the closet

5. nothing to do with Star Trek or science fiction whatsoever

6. I wonder if they decided to support someone else in the mayoral race?
