The Lighter Side of Book Burning

While most stories from this weekend regarding burning things made me shake my head, a story out of Amarillo, TX made me giggle like a school girl. According to the Amarillo Globe News, the scene was set for David Grisham (director of “Repent Amarillo”) to exercise his right to free speech by burning a Quran in a public park. His plans attracted a crowd of peace-loving protesters, all of whom seemed resigned to the fact that they were going to... Read more

If church was more like this not only would we get more butts in the seats, but we could probably also start charging admission. My only question is does adding this ministry to your church also require to add a DJ/Pastor or Pastor of the DJ Worship Arts? Read more

Religion of Hate

Last updated on: September 11, 2010 at 11:31 am By Zack Hunt

This isn’t a ran’t about Islam. It’s about Christianity. On the 9th anniversary of 9/11 I thought this subject would be appropriate to talk about. Islam is often defined as a religion of hate and violence, at least by those eager to burn its holy book. I would suggest that American Christianity, at least in the arenas in which it receives the most attention, has largely become a religion of hate. Not that it’s core principles are hatred, I have...

Not only does this guy have the worst “evangelism method” of all time, he also has the most ironic “evangelist” name: Ray Comfort. You won’t be very comfortable when Ray comes by to tell you you’re going to hell. What Ray and his good buddy Kirk Cameron do is called “confrontational evangelism”. They ambush random people on the street, quiz them on which of the 10 commandments they’ve broken and then tell them they’re going to hell. It’s the way... Read more

Quran burning condemned, but Springfield minister to burn copy, too BY BOB SMIETANA • THE TENNESSEAN Conservative Christian leaders condemned a Florida pastor who plans to burn 200 copies of the Quran on Sept. 11, saying Wednesday that Christians don’t burn other religions’ holy books. It’s as simple as the “separation of church and hate,” said the Rev. Rick Warren, a California megachurch pastor who prayed at President Obama’s inauguration. The National Association of Evangelicals, the Pontifical Council for Interreligious... Read more

But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you…”(Matthew 5:44-45) By now, most people have heard of Terry Jones, the Florida pastor who plans on holding a community-wide Koran burning at his church ( Dove World Outreach) on September 11th. He’s gotten quite a bit of publicity (probably the goal all along) lately, even drawing the ire of... Read more
