"God is OK, I guess..."
by Sewing
Hilarious! But I predict that fans of at least half of your "authors" will object, and many of these will have entirely misunderstood the point of your jokes.
For Example:
"What have you got against Jonathan Edwards!?!"
"Who says Phil Johnson doesn't have any guts?"
"Who are you to question whether N.T. Wright has a soul?"
You know it will happen. I would recommend you stay out of the comment thread. Let this be a "drive-by-blogging." You've dropped your payload, now kick in the afterburner and fly off over the horizon.
Oh, and by the way, Okay, Now THAT's a Cult!, by Hugh Hewitt - LAUGH OUT LOUD, dude!
You should see what I left off, Tom.
I think I need to call a foul on myself as I didn't follow the correct format. Zen Tent Making should have not been by McLaren ... Johnny Mac would have been closer to the point. Thanks for not calling me on it!
For the record, I saw the one that Dan left off, and it was such a barn-burner that even TeamPyro can't possibly say it out loud.
So you can imagine how cutting-edge and brutal it was.
Brutal, I say.
And don't plead with Dan to post it. He won't -- he has too much personal love and affection for the Christian community.
And don't petition Phil -- he'll say no.
And don't ask me. I want to remain a member in good standing [sic] at TeamPyro.
I don't get the Wilson one - could somebody explain it to the humor-impaired (i.e. me)? :)
Frank, could you e-mail it to me? *Pleading kitten eyes*
Yeah. Frank's got a real soft-spot for kittens.
