I thought they already crushed all the Dixie Chicks CD’s with a bulldozer.

Till Kingdom Come?

Andrew: yes–not new. And nobody seems to learn anything from past idiocies/atrocities. When you say, though, that “We wouldn’t have orthodoxy without the heterodox spewing their nonsense,” an odd imbalance is suggested in my mind. Are you saying that orthodoxy gives rise to the heterodox (which thus shares its sins and shouldn’t indulge in complaints), or that the heterodox gives rise to orthodoxy, and thus we can’t blame the orthodox because the pollution comes from the heterodox? This seems to put orthodoxy in a conveniently resilient position, doesn’t it? The Measure of all things (ask your doctor if you experience symptoms such as driving while asleep, inadvertent dog fucking, murder, unprompted erections that last more than four days…).

Cindy, in case you do go, prepare for a long night. The website clearly states that this family event will be taking place on October 31st “7:00 PM – Till”. I’m not sure what the till is, but it sounds awfully distant.

I’ll bring my Good News for Modern Man and my Living Bible. And I wouldn’t mind burning Danny’s Dixie Chicks CD’s.

Actually, Daryl your sense that they are turning on each other is not a new story. Most of historic Christianity is rooted in controversies over what is heretical and what isn’t . We wouldn’t have orthodoxy without the heterdox spewing their nonsense.

As I always say, “religous men are still men.” And there is no system of thought man can’t pervert and twist to his own ends.

I think it’s a good idea. I’ll bring a chameleon.

I can see the news report now: “Emergency crews responded today to a book burning. Pastor Mulvin Grizzard’s wife Genny Grizzard had just dropped a King James Bible once owned by an Athiest on the flames when her floor-length skirt caught fire. Pastor Grizzard fell back but the other 14 members of his group rushed to help and were all soon engulfed in flames. Many retreated to their cars as they burned while some re-entered the church, and soon the whole area, including the cypress trees in the nearby cemetery and the large propane tank at the “secret prayer spot” by the storage barn were involved. When the first units of the fire department arrived on the scene, Pastor Grizzard was found standing in a pond, holding his Bible above his head and loudly proclaiming that it was a miracle: he was saved and his Bible was not wet.”
