That sounds a bit more likely.... I guess it's all in the interpretation of the delivered message... unless the pastor actually said "God praises child sacrifices" and left it at that.
My main point is that if you disagree with the basic ideology of a subject (religion) it's very likely you are also going to disagree or not understand the explanation and/or delivery of the message.
Raise your hand if you think this atheist went into that church with an open mind to begin with. He was obviously looking for things to disagree with to begin with...hence the note taking of all the things he perceived as negative or "wrong".
If it's Christianity you look to understand... i would not recommend going to a denomination that is extreme... ie Southern Baptist.... Church of Christ.
Try a bible study group or a non-denomination church. Maybe even take a class at a Jr. College.
