Understanding Jefferson Bethke is wrong . . .

.
. . . is not just a Catholic thing.

One of my favorite musicians, Justin McRoberts, writes in his blog "Why I don't hate religion"

"Yet I would suggest that the thing to do in response to poorly practiced religion is to work at practicing it well and helping others to do the same".

The Theology will not be Youtubed

Two Doors

.
The Church has two doors
The Entrance is marked : Truth
The Exit is Marked : Opinion

Faith and Reason vs. Hollister Brand Christianity

.
Not all of our Protestant brethren fall for the moral relative pseudo Christianity of wannabe Old Navy models. The Supertones have always had extremely challenging lyrics, and I pray daily that their main song writer, and all of the band, finally come to know the fullness of Truth in Christ's church.

"Faith and reason are like two wings
on which the human spirit rises to the contemplation of truth;
and God has placed in the human heart a desire to know the truth—
in a word, to know himself
—so that, by knowing and loving God,
men and women may also come to the fullness of truth about themselves"
Blessed John Paul II

Caffeinated thought for the Day :
If Protestants truly believed in the
Bible Alone,
than shouldn't "Christian" bookstores
only be stocked with Bibles? (O:

Hope for Christians Embracing Bethkeism

.
Watching early video of Bryan Kempler on "Politically Incorrect" balanced with his recent conversion, reminds me that there is hope for the innocent young people being lied to by the Bethke's of this world (who themselves have been lied to . . .and that hope and forgiveness is still available). . . .heck, even a butthead like me was given the grace to see the truth over the lie.

so goes the Nation

.
A more political Protestant friend noticed
"You worry more about Pro-life
than you do the economy"
I replied " Of course,
'cause God doesn't care if our money burns,
but hates that our children do".

Variation on a Theme

To Say the
Opposite
of Life

is Choice
makes as much sense
as saying
the Opposite
of Death

is Peanut Butter

Pro-Life Troops : Stand!!!



STAND!
There's a cross for you to bear
Things to go through if you're going anywhere
Stand!
For the things you know are right
It's the truth that the truth makes them so uptight
Stand!
There's a midget standing tall
And a giant beside him about to fall
Stand!

Luther Bethke Luther

.
Jefferson Bethke's Kardasian-like popularity helps us understand how a monk of average intelligence and misguided passion could be turned into the prideful celebrity who had to invent Sola Scriptura rather than admit that he was wrong and had led others astray.

Bridegroom and the Bride

Saying you
"Love Jesus, but Hate Religion"
is like saying you
"Love Your Wife, But Hate Marriage"
