Before the 2008 election, Focus on the Family warned real, true Christians against voting for Barack Obama. The religious right group published a colorful "Letter From 2012 in Obama's America." It contained 34 specific predictions for what would become of America by October of 2012 (i.e., now). Libby Anne digs out a copy of that letter and examines each prediction. The result is hilarious and devastating. Read more

Revelation 3:17 For you say, “I am rich, I have prospered, and I need nothing.” You do not realize that you are wretched, pitiable, poor, blind, and naked. Read more
The tribal guardians of evangelicalism want you to know that Jesus was "being literal" when he said "I am the way, the truth, and the life."

Kent Shaffer of Church Relevance says, "Almost every time I update the Top Church Blogs list, one question arises: 'Where are all the Christian women bloggers?"
