cartoon: Rob Hell

As I noted on your facebool page – This all smells like a brilliant marketing ploy – piper needs bell and vice versa to push product. Yet another missional male whizzing contest where I lack the interest and ontological equipment needed to participate.

Funny cartoon.

I am weary though. Maybe if I were still deep into Christianity, I’d get all dramatic, spend lots of time wondering what he meant, etc.

Now I just don’t care!

It’s all mind games folks!
If you like shocking humor on the topic of ‘hell’ go to this link and get the hell book. Zender is brilliant at taking apart the ‘hell’ thing with his over the top black humor.

Well . . . I don’t actually KNOW Rob Bell, but I did go to college with him and got a postcard from him once. (Had I been a little more foresightful, I’d have hung onto it.) Sadly this does not mean that I know of any way to pass this along to him, but I just felt like a little pseudobragging for no apparent reason.

I don’t know David well enough (via his blog) to be able to tell if this is his way of saying he disagrees with Rob or not.

Funny.

And I second reading Martin Zender’s stuff if you want an entertaining yet informative look at the topic of hell.

Although I may really like his book (Bell’s) I share Becky’s suspicions.

too much thought required on this one for a tuesday morning before 2nd cup of coffee….sorry i’m such a rube – don’t know who rob is don’t know who origen is..where’s the half & half and splenda…

I’ll check into Zen Buddhists. They might be a lot more fun than Christians arguing with each other about theology, ALL coming from the crystal- clear Word of God! Makes my head hurt thinking about it.

Hi, my name is Jesus…you’re first hour is free!

Please…get a real job and quit milking your audience.

Where’s your biblical basis for your offerings?

When did the apostles and disciples set up shop offering the first hour free.

People, seek Christ and forget this loonie and his crystal ball.

My cat can likely interpret your dreams and will do it for free…even after the first hour.

OMG David!

This man is being insulted and ridiculed about a book that hasn’t even come out yet! I am sickened yet again by Christians. I admire this mans honesty and plan to read his books. What is wrong with people that because we don’t agree with somebody we treat them with contempt and hate. And us Christians are the worst for it. I am grieving for this mans position and partly for myself. He stands in a narrow gap which the church would like to see him crushed between. This viral reaction will get him some press and hopefully the book will get into the hands of people who need it! God bless him. He’s a brave man.

“People, seek Christ and forget this loonie and his crystal ball.”

There’s the answer to any and all problems you may encounter in life-Jesus. It’s so very simple!! Oh, and if it doesn’t work for you, then something’s wrong with YOU, not the advice.

Hi David.

As someone who has had an early version of the book since January, I’ve let a few more details out today on my blog if anyone cares to visit.

I think this cartoon does an excellent job of putting things into perspective.
