Their hearts may have been in the right places, but their theology definitely needed work.<BR/><BR/>Interestingly enough, yesterday's cover story in the NYTimes Magazine was all about how American Christianity is going to be transformed by African Fundamentalism.<BR/><BR/>Unfortunately, we live in "interesting times."<BR/><BR/>And your reference to "The Handmaid's Tale" sent shivers up my spine because I think we're a very fragile democracy, always on the verge of becoming theocratic.JoyZeeBoyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17045681895558115673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27828358.post-91803943742163380822009-04-12T11:07:00.000-04:002009-04-12T11:07:00.000-04:00Strange poll, I voted for Purgatory.Couldn't get t...Strange poll, I voted for Purgatory.<BR/>Couldn't get the newest comments box to open, guess it's tired. The fundies are going to go bat-guano about that article. My Pentecostal relatives are sure that there is a massive conspiracy by the left-wing, Godless pinkos to crush all the 'good Christians.' I keep telling them that they have nothing to worry about if they are really 'born-again' but they seem to want to quit waiting for Jesus and take on world-domination themselves. Yeah, I know, they sound like Sarah Palin. That seems to be her agenda, too. Reminds me of "The Handmaid's Tale."
