At the end of the day, God will get us out

I don’t think so. No, in fact I think these two loose screws are going spend some time in prison.

Self-appointed Baptist pastor Colin Haag Jr. along with his wife were arrested for kidnapping. It’s a long complicated story clouded by idiocy.

Amanda Haag’s two daughters, ages 7 and 12, were found on April 18 by themselves in a room at the Eagle’s Lodge motel in Ellsworth after Colin Haag’s father, Colin Haag Sr., told police that he had been held a virtual prisoner in the family’s cellar and that Amanda Haag was hiding her two daughters from her ex-partner, who police said had legal custody.

After the Haags were arrested, the girls were reunited with their biological father who has returned with them to Florida, according to police. The man had been searching for his daughters for more than two years.

“I’m sitting here, facing 30 years in jail, for something I didn’t do,” Haag Jr. said Monday, tears springing to his eyes.

Here is what you need to know. Pastor Haag never finished high school, could not get into the Marines, got ordained as a minister from the Universal Life Church of Modesto and found a job as a pastor via www.pastorfinder.com… without any qualifications. I mean, what the hell?  Oh wait, he was fired after two months for allegedly stealing from the Church. Of course, now that he has experience, he just started his own church.

Why do people trust these people?

“It is a custody issue blown out of proportion.” Or is he a kidnapper and thief? What seems clear is that this pastor did not give an adequate explanation for what was going on. From the article it appears that there is enough conflicting information to muddy the waters for quite some time. Let’s hope the police investigate and do a good job.

A follow-up report when more information is available would be appreciated.

These 2 used to work for me here in Myrtle Beach. Colin was (so he said) a former Marine, former Navy SEAL, a MMA fighter who had supposedly talked to Dana White and was just one or two fights away from getting a UFC contract. He also had said he had a Masters degree in Religion from "Universal Life College". Amanda herself told me one day that "He can kick YOUR ass!" (Some religious people there, huh?) But, I am a former Marine, and if it is one thing I can tell you, Marines generally tend to know their own... And as a poster we had on the wall in the barracks at Parris Island had said... "If you were ever accused of being a Marine, would there be enough evidence to convict you?" With him, I definitely would have said no.
the article below is of colin haag and his father... the apple didn't fall far from the tree.
