...but take a moment to consider the validity of this quote from Derek Webb:
Chew on that for a minute or ten, then let me know what you think.We are disliked for all the wrong reasons, Christians in America... We need to be careful that we are actually acting like Jesus, opposed to
acting like the people Jesus judged the most harshly, which is the arrogant
church leadership, the Pharisees. We need to be careful, because it’s sending
such a mixed message, and that’s a huge issue. And I think that if we could just
pause for a moment and just look at Jesus’ life and look at the way he dealt
with people and treated people, in the context that he did it, I think we would
find that we’re probably on the wrong side.

Hey! You blogged!
Wow... I should probably get my brother to church; this is one of the 7 signs of the apocalypse, right? No, wait, the cubs have to win the Series, so we're probably good for a while....
Now, back to your blog: When HAVEN'T we been like the Pharisees? I mean, this isn't new news. We've heard cassandrean call for decades now. What is changing?
You wouldn't expect me to disagree with this, would you?
