Well, at least he's putting Jesus' teaching into action:
1. Learn to share your faith
...
4. Visit the online store
Didn't the Sermon on the Mount end with an invitation to head over to the souvenir booth? Right?
Seriously - what the hell is going on with 'mainstream' evangelical Christianity in the US and it's bizzre connection with the most crass forms of Capitalism? One minute I'm getting pitched a verson of Christanity with lines like "If you rock climb, you must be a man of faith," and literally two or three sentences later this guy is trying to sell me a building product he reps. Someone please explain to me how the people who claim to take the teaching of Jesus and the Bible so literally and obsessively, can totally disregard Jesus nice, clear, unabiguous instructions to give up your worldly possessions and go to serve the poor. "Eye of the Needle" anyone?

Oh geez ... Kirk Cameron. I actually sat through that his pathetic movie based off the novels based on Revelation (title unremembered, but co-authored by Tim LaHay).

i couldn't stop watching the first link! ha.. that was fun. i'm such a bad person 
..the "start over" button didn't work like i wanted it to
not that i'd say i'm one way or another but i'd remind people to not get the message confused with the messengers..

I think my golden ticket to hell has been confirmed, I only got a 20% on the 10 commandment quiz.
I can't watch the evolution one now because I am not high, and that is definitely the button i want to click.

Yeah, that's it! The first couple weren't so bad, but it got so hoaky (the novels and church-going) that I gave up. LOL!rhunt wrote:Hey Meadows, you're talk about the block buster "Left Behind"

I am very much ashamed to admit I read many of those books in the series and saw the movie. What a sinful life I use to live....thank *goodness* I have been delivered and I have reserved my place in....dust.
