Outchurched

I’ve been reading sofyst-ication a fair bit recently. A post from what’s now technically yesterday:

Am I the only one that finds this picture horribly scary?

I commented:

I think there are three “difficult” aspects of this picture:

The red tie-string in the clown’s crotch. The overtly Gnostic depiction of the clown as Christ. Consider:

The clown’s hair is […]

Found this today. A picture with words is worth a lot more than just a picture, or just words. :)

In this Midweek Service, Grasty poses the question: “Are we a movement of ‘anti-Evangelicals’? Are we a just a reaction against ‘Conservative Politics?’” We briefly discuss this, and I think it’s a good start towards spawning discussion of some important themes. If you have some insight or thoughts on this, please share […]

This is a far better illustration than any satirical commentary or raging screed that I could ever write:

Conservative Christian televangelist Pat Robertson told citizens of a Pennsylvania town that they had rejected God by voting their school board out of office for supporting “intelligent design” and warned them on Thursday not to be surprised if […]

I’m late posting the Sunday Service, but when you stop to think about it, it’s bound to be Sunday somewhere in the world… and if it’s not… well… if you have enough faith it eventually will be. ;)

SMYRNA, Tenn. - Members of a church say God is punishing American soldiers for defending a country that harbors gays, and they brought their anti-gay message to the funerals Saturday of two Tennessee soldiers killed in Iraq.

Why is this news? Don’t most people understand that christians are generally intolerant of other people who don’t […]

With the chat I’ve heard recently about “finding a new church” it seems fully appropriate that they’ve found an old one. Woo hoo! One more thing to fight over in the Middle East!

I’m pretty excited about the fact that we’ve got Outchurched started back up. While I recognize that the audio quality is less-than-optimal, it’ll get better over time, as will the focus/content of the podcast. Feet are back on the ground and we’re pushing like Fred Flinstone. ;)

We’d appreciate any feedback you have […]

I knew I’d forgotten to do something yesterday… I forgot to post the mid-week service! DOH!

This mid-week service is on the general topic of “Men’s Groups” and, as is turning out to be the new norm, contains adult themes (masturbation, oh my!) and so on. If you’re among the faint/weak of heart, it’s […]
