I had no idea that the Renaissance had reached Georgia - they keep electing medieval fools to the US Congress.

"Hopefully, Janna will republish this poll daily so we aren't permanently committed to our choices. "

That would be most accommodating.

Ha, I have millions of descendents, and each of them will return to vote.

I could not make up my mind.

This reminds me of those great rampages of yesteryear.

I like scenes of horror and devastation.

Lovely woman.

Does she ride horses?

Can she ravage and pillage?

It would be refreshing, however, to have the theological assumptions of Evangelical Christianity in America rigorously examined.

I can't imagine that the Three-Self Movement" has made any greater theological accomodations than the feel-good, power-worshipping, prosperity cult of most American evangelical churches.

Review: Misquoting Jesus by Dave Sandborg

This is a great review of an improtant book, Dave.

Is the author indeed " a former Christian with an axe to grind..."?

I understood that he was a former Biblical literalist, quite a different thing.

If this country, and it's ahistorical, theologically-bankrupt churches, had any intellectual rigor, this book would not be startling.

The Bible and the Church have always lived in a kind of dynamic interaction, the Church creating the book and the book creating the Church.

The story of the "Woman taken in Adultry" may be as old and as venerable as any other story in the canon -some "errors" of transcription are just as likely to be corrections of inadvertant omission.

The Church struggled for centuries to define and decide how best to select and organize the scraps of testimony from various witnesses to the Incarnation.

The result is a marvelous treasure.

Only proof-texting literalists would be confused or outraged by Ehrman's work.

This article (was it a college paper?) provides an attractive introduction to the book by Mark Strom.

It has been a long time since I have read widely about evangelical theology, but I will look into Strom's "re-framing" or "un-framing"of St. Paul.

Anarchists are nothing, puny little eggheads.

Give me a barbarian horde, and we can master the prairies.

"...barbarians have always died out over human history "

And, they have always emerged again, "in fact". Consider the Republican Party.

I thank you, Kay. One finds it hard to compose sometimes when there is noise, turmoil, and revolt around one's yurt.

I don't have to face this a few years, but the advice sounds good.

Being involved in community affairs and having a supportive personal network seem to be essential.

I saw this on the news this morning.

What a sad state of affairs.

It would be nice to know that there was greater certainty about the cause of these deaths.

Your title has the wrong acronym for the Consumer Product Safety Commission.

Should be CPSC, not CSPC.

396 this morning, half of them from two people, Kathryn something or other and Edward Nuddelman.

I had to block them because I could not possibly read every thing about which they sent a message.

Do you have to be some kind of egotist to send announcements about every little thing you write?

I didn't see the Reading Railroad or the Baltimore and Ohio.

I also couldn't find Marvin Gardens or St. James Place.

Too bad that Janet didn't pay attention to the article.

You can pray any place, any time, your little heart desires.

We don't need school-sanctioned prayers.

Thank God for preserving us from a state-supported religious establishment.
