A few weeks ago a mans cell phone went off during the most critical part of the invitation. It may have distracted someone who was about to make a decision. I felt sorry for the guy, but his carelessness could have very well cost someone their soul.

"To be fair, the guys ring tone was "Baby got Back," and it's well known to be God's favorite song."
Actually the ring-tone is "The Bitch is Back" and he uses it when Satan calls. (Cheers to anyone else who knows the reference.)
Oh, man, if only I got the chance to spook some fundie by having my ringtone go off while they were pestering me! (It's the insanely evil, devilish AM's theme from I Have No Mouth And I Must Scream - perfect! ;-)
I told my daughter she would lose her cell phone for life is[ sic] that ever happened with hers.
Cellphones, or evil science devices planted by Satan to detract people from God? Better throw away all cellphones you come in contact with, just to be sure.
Dude, you might want to rethink worshipping a god who's so easily rendered helpless by his creation's inventions. Because that's the pinnacle of impotence right there.
"I HAVE CREATED YOU!"
"And I have created a cellphone! Kneel before me, God!"
"I AM TEH SUX. PWNT. KTHXBAI."
"Whoohoo!"

I don't know about the costing souls part, but I can't have a lot of sympathy for an idiot who leaves his cell phone on in church (or at movies, funerals, etc.).
Gee, I didn't realize fundie souls are so vulnerable. Must have something to do with the lifelong self-inflicted guilt trip or something.
Ringtone:
@aethernaut - I believe he's talking about the invitation to come forward and confess your sins that is a standard part of revival meetings.
This is further proof that those services are pure emotional manipulation. Ring tones don't interfere with rational decisions.

Mr. Deity (http://mrdeity.com/ ), which - to anyone who hasn't heard of it - is well worth checking out.
My default ring tone is Metallica's "No Leaf Clover." Specifically, the chorus "Then it comes to be/ that the soothing light at the end of your tunnel/ is just a freight train coming your way." I guess I shouldn't hang out at this church, huh?
Uh-oh, Your cellphone went off during a church service, "No rapture for you"!PS My brother is quite used to phones going off during his services, he has volunteer firemen and rescue squad members in his congregation. Neither God nor he seem to mind.
Ghostofvictim: "Better be careful not to sneeze during prayer, there could be dire consequences."
If you fart in church, the consequence is you sit in your own pew.
Sorry, couldn't resist.
...the will of god ruined by a ringing cell phone.
Such a weak god doesn't deserve all this worship, does he?
Bearing in mind that you can't type or use orthography correctly, and that this guy NEVER made the phone call that may "distract" the other person, and that people take decisions as a long meditative process, I wonder if you're smoking marihuana.
Oh Lord! I think I must follow
