In May 2021, an Evangelical man named Daniel Kluver began stalking me on the Internet. I have asked him to stop emailing me or sending me messages on social media, yet he continues to do so. Some of Kluver’s past literary works say things such as this:
Evangelical Man Says I am Infested with Evil Spirits:
You are the one making an ass out of your self! If all you can talk is shit then go talk It to the devil. A devil did speak through in a lie yesterday. You claimed to have demonic power yesterday [evidently Kluver doesn’t understand sarcasm] but the fact is the devil in you was just boasting about himself! You have no power and your garbage that you dump into the world will soon be over according to your testimony about your health [ah yes, another passive-aggressive threat]. Sometimes when people are infested with evil spirits they don’t even know what is wrong with their selves. If that’s the case with you then you still have a chance for the evil spirits to be flushed out and then you won’t have to keep living like the guy in mark chapter five.[the demon-possessed maniac of Gadera] I have learned how to get demons to manifest in people like you and that is evident.
Another Facebook Message From an Evangelical Zealot:
Peter ruckman was disliked by many brainwashed preacher boys but he was my favorite teacher because he was a straight shooter! Just because the Bible says in the latter times some will depart from the faith giving heed to doctrines of demons like the nuns that won’t marry doesn’t mean you have to. You should watch demons and Christians by ruckman.
You speak like you were a brainwashed preacher boy and it makes me wonder if you are really saved.
I have prayed for god to soften your heart and cut you to the marrow if that’s what it takes.with stents and patches all over our bodies we are in the third quarter of life.
I would probably bet that your wife has been a first peter chapter three wife at times.
Gods message to you is don’t let your pride get in the way of eternity! The only way you could ever preach gods word and denounce him later is only by devils that you have let surround yourself. Devils perched on both shoulders whispering lies into your mind to block the Spirit of God all mighty!
there is a literal hell and I have found that out before I was saved. God used it as a tool to get my attention and it worked.
I am going to ask God to pull back his protective hand off of your life if that’s what it takes to get your attention. In case you haven’t realized it yet I asked God to use me and instead of street witnessing like I used to he is using technology. I have to stay prayed up to fight the devil everyday and you saw how he was working on me with the first message I sent you.
If I don’t see you in heaven then I will see you on judgment day! Take care and god bless!
Yet Another Facebook Message From an Evangelical Zealot:
You morphs are just confirmation of the times we are in.
You have shown that you don’t love or fear god and you are useless now!
Your opinions are slanderous and you have become just like satan whom you serve. A stumbling block to some. Just a bunch of hot air to others.
Rough times ahead just right around the corner for those who hate god.
You’re wrong about who dies when you said that we will both die. Believers never die!
I am amazed at your ignorance and you probably were thrown out of the congregation that you say you were pastoring. I doubt that much of what you said is true!
Why don’t you get a job?
Kluver even contacted my wife, Polly, on Facebook:
If we are truly born again we cannot quit the church because we are the church. You can walk away from the lord and be miserable if you are truly born again just as a non believer that thinks they are born again and can’t understand why they are miserable.
I have been where Bruce is or was and Hebrews twelve verses seven and on confirms the truth about someone.
God has answered every one of my prayers over the last twenty five years and you and your family have been my first and foremost prayers!
Praying for others is my spiritual gift and I wasn’t sure what it was until I asked God to confirm it. We all have these gifts if we are born again and I believe one of yours is your heart for children.
take care and god bless you and your family!
Kluver also sent me private messages on Facebook. Eventually, I was able to successfully block and ban him. Somehow, earlier this month, Kluver was able bypass being blocked and banned and contacted me on Facebook. Not remembering my previous interactions with him, when Kluver messages me about the weather and IFB evangelist Dennis Corle, I politely and happily answered him. After two or three messages, a light went off in my addled senior brain, reminding me who this man really is. I quickly banned and blocked him. Not one to take a hint from anyone but the Holy Spirit, Kluver came to this site and used the contact form to send me an email:
Hey Bruce I heard that you are preaching again. That’s awesome because you know what the baptist say: once saved always saved! If that’s true then you are stuck being a Christian. I will tell Dennis corle hello for you and tell me where you are preaching so I can stop by and say hello.
What the fuck, right? Kluver is a sociopath with advanced degrees in gas lighting and passive-aggressive behavior. Kluver has in the past threatened me, so I find him saying “so I can stop by and say hello” troubling. Fortunately, Kluver lives in California, so I am not too concerned that he will try to show up on my doorstep and say “hello.”
I am not sure what to make of his claim “Bruce I heard that you are preaching again.” I assume this is just Kluver making shit up. No one, anywhere, including yours truly, is saying that “Bruce Gerencser is preaching the Christian gospel again.” I remain an unrepentant atheist, an enemy of God and Christianity. Now, if an Evangelical church would like to have me come and preach, I am more than happy to do so. However, I suspect they might not like my sermon. 🙂
Bruce Gerencser, 66, lives in rural Northwest Ohio with his wife of 45 years. He and his wife have six grown children and thirteen grandchildren. Bruce pastored Evangelical churches for twenty-five years in Ohio, Texas, and Michigan. Bruce left the ministry in 2005, and in 2008 he left Christianity. Bruce is now a humanist and an atheist.

Reading those excerpts leaves me feeling like Marlin in “Finding Nemo” … “it’s like he’s trying to speak to me, I know it!”
Or maybe he’s just your garden-variety “there’s no such thing as clinical depression, you’re just under demonic attack!” type. (To clarify, I say this as a believer. But I was a believer for almost 15 years before I found a church willing to accept the inability of my father’s body to produce adequate insulin and my body’s inability to produce adequate seratonin as both being medical conditions. And that was because the church was pastored by a man with OCD.)
What a nut. I hope you can keep him blocked and banned.
Whilst I’m an atheist and have little doubt that there is no afterlife, I always chuckle to myself that these kinds of unpleasant folk are so sure that they will be the ones going to heaven. As I always point out, it’s far more likely that God will want to save people a little more intellectually challenging than this moron.
Well that’s odd he would say that because I heard that same thing and instead of a pulpit you had a pole, and were wearing red suits.
Sigh
I picture this guy as a character in Harry Potter who was probably in Slytherin House and got in trouble for using the cruciatus curse on small, helpless creatures, just for fun. Anyone who thinks he can sic demons onto anyone (and apparently would like to do so) is a really sick, demented person.
why do I feel like some of those individuals never learned English?? (I could say the same thing in other languages, but nobody would recognize the comment)
