"In a pluralistic society, there's no room for heresy or even the charge of heresy because there's lots of room for any given belief, no matter how crazy.'

This is a good thing...right? I mean, it's one thing to have a pluralistic society, quite another to have a pluralistic church.

Lol! I have that book, Zrim. I remember thinking the same thing when my pastor at the time gave it to me. The basic point of the book is "read your Bible to discover God's will." Didn't need a book to tell me that.

And why did we waste precious airtime of Michael's segment watching him run up a flight of stairs?

Joel's tears moved me to tears. When I think of all the lives he has touched...
Today at work I've been sharing Joel's message of hope with everyone... I've told them to always stay 100% positive so that when God showers them with a blessing moment that they can maximize it.
Almost everyone in the office has become a Christian except for this stupid punk kid in accounting who had the audacity to ask why he had to stay positive if God was going to bless him anyway, and I said NO, it doesn't work that way, God's not going to bless you unless you stay positive, if you keep that lousy attitude, God's going to send you pain, lots and lots of pain.

His bad attitude reminded me of that guy from the Westiminster inquisition, running around like some templar knight charging heresy. I mean seriously... isn't heresy some kind of fake charge they used to burn people as witches in the 1300s.

Joel gives me the life-touching and togetherness I really crave when I excercise my deep spirituality. Sometimes when I walk in a Christian bookstore I feel like he touches me five dozen times at once, one touch for every smile on the face of every book and promotional poster. Now that I think about it he touches my life more times than any other human. And just think of the millions of people he life-touches everytime they pass an airport kiosk.

I know its a difficult to really calculate how many lives God touches, but Joel touches us so much that maybe he should at least be called God Junior. I hesitate to be to hasty with this since we have to be careful not overlook Rick Warren, who recently authored the new holy scriptures "PDL".

Sometimes I wished the interviewers would just shut up and let the interviewees speak... Makes me think they just like to hear their own voices/speeches...

Walt,

I think Ferguson may need to read more Horton (!).

Like Dt. 29:29 seems to suggest, I think you still have to distinguish between the secret and revealed will.
