The "About" Page is up and available from the Main Menu. Check it our for some fun quotes from my childhood. I'll be back before long with a post to explain what I mean when I use the term "Fundamentalism" and what I mean by going "beyond" it.

Guess where the quote that titles this post came from?

The mission statement of an Anglican Church in London. And they seem to mean it.

In honor of yesterday's 10th anniversay of the passing of songwriter Rich Mullins, I offer this very wise quote from him:

"It starts off so beautifully and then at the end of that Psalm, the last verse of that Psalm is “How very blessed is the man who dashes the little one’s heads against the rocks.” This is not the sort of scripture you read at a pro-life meeting. But it’s in there none the less. Which is the thing about the Bible that’s why it always cracks me up when people say ‘Well in Dududududududududududududu it says’ you kinda go ‘Wow it says a lot of things in there.’ Proof texting is a very dangerous thing. I think if we were given the scriptures it was not so that we could prove that we were right about everything. If we were given the scriptures it was to humble us into realizing that God is right and the rest of us are just guessing. Which is what makes them so much fun to read, especially if you are not a fundamentalist."
