"I know there are tons of people out there whose only exposure to Christianity are these voices the media reports. Mike tells me that over at the Friendly Atheist blog most of the atheists simply cannot accept that other sorts of Christianity even exist. To them the close-minded, sexist, racist, extremists they hear about on the news represent the whole of Christianity.
It’s similar to how most of us, knowing nothing about Islam, choose to believe that the Taliban represents the whole of Islam.
But I find it very interesting that when anyone attempts to stand up to one of these voices, we get criticized for being unholy, unloving, and unfaithful. Is the church truly the last place where the freedom to speak honestly and hold others accountable is denied?
So I’m getting sick of the “just be a quiet witness” solutions — I think there needs to be a place for holy outrage. Perhaps not impeachment, but outrage nonetheless."

Can't we all just get along. *sigh*

Why sure hunny

Way to go you two!

We may have started something!

http://masbury.wordpress.com/ is here at Clipmarks - a blogger minister writing on world affairs - and sharing sermons on his blog as well.
Media sensationalize - it's what sells. Demographically churches have an older crowd who deal face to face in meetings - not online.
Even the authoritarian voice of the church is muted compared to stories.
