Quite frankly, this is one of the best articles I have ever read.

“Conservative evangelical Christians have long been known for shunning all sorts of behavior considered by others to be morally neutral or enjoyable. Whether it’s drinking alcoholic beverages,¹ smoking tobacco products,² playing cards,³ going to movie theatres,⁴ dancing,⁵ or even drinking coffee,⁶ “fundamentalist”⁷ Christians are often viewed by outsiders as having a God who is not only a white-clad, frowning prude, but also a “Cosmic Killjoy.”

“Although many liberal scholars and non-Christians believe the Bible is full of crap,¹⁶ there’s actually only one place where the word occurs, though it is often scooped up or covered over by modern English translations.”

And here is the poster I have done to prove it!

Don’t be alarmed regular Markedly readers.

This title is one of the key search terms readers have used to find my blog.
If you are looking for reasons for the above title, look elswhere, there is nothing to see here!

I get lots of emails from different people….stuff I have subscribed for.
Here are two examples from the last couple of days which I think is dumb advertising.

1. A Christian Multi-Media company sends out a mass email, ‘Free Loops’. Cool I think, they sometimes do give away free stuff. A company like ‘Sermonspice’ give a free one away a month, and of course ‘Muddy River Media’ give away all their stuff for free.
Only problem is that this company (no names no pack drill) is not giving anything away. If you purchase a mpeg pack, for about $45 US (rip off for stuff I could make myself) then you get a loop. That is not free…..that is bad PR

2. 1-Day send out a mass email advertising Nintendo Wi cheap price. Only problem is, I logged on before it was even for sale…waited till it came up, and they were sold out, already. How could that happen? It looks to me like they one for sale, and some lucky joker got that one, and the rest of us missed out. Its just trying to get people to their website…but its dumb advertising because all they do is upset and dissapoint a whole heap of their customers.

Yes he is….what the Pres said….

He is coming again to Perth, 26th – 28th February 2010
We are stepping out in faith this year, more so than we have before.
Stay tuned for further details as I can make them public, but suffice to say, we are planning the conference based on some preliminary information we have about attendance.

Should be awesome!
