Some Interesting Links on a Friday . . .

Here's a very interesting discussion (from November 2007) dealing with the current state of American Evangelicalism, featuring our friends Michael Horton and Darryl Hart (along with others).  Very good stuff.  Click here: Touchstone Archives: Evangelicalism Today

Richard Roberts didn't take the news too badly about getting fired from ORU.  He's going back to being a full-time televangelist.  I didn't realize he ever stopped being one.  Oh, he's also tied of lies and accusations.  Click here: Richard Roberts announces return to full-time ministry | Liveblog | Christianity Today 

I guess my mullet wig won't help me escape the police (those of you from Christ Reformed who have our new directory will get the joke).  Click here: Wig Can’t Fool Cops | The Intelligencer / Wheeling News-Register

A while back, my wife and sons got me a USB turntable, so I can play all my old vinyl through my computer and my stereo.  My sons can't believe how much better an old record sounds than a new CD.  Someone else has noticed too.  Click here: The Death of High Fidelity : Rolling Stone

Speaking of music, I'm going to take great delight and make raspberry sounds as I record some new CD's (which I bought and paid for) on to my hard-drive.  Why?  Because the idiots at the RIAA are now telling me its a crime to do so.  Sorry fellas, but if I bought it, I'm going to do with it whatever I want (for my own personal use, of course)!  Those CD's will be on my hard-drive and there's nothing you can do about it!  Click here: Download Uproar: Record Industry Goes After Personal Use - washingtonpost.com

I'm not superstitious about such things, but it would be kind of creepy to have 666 as the prefix to your phone number.  Click here: 666 Phone Prefix Cast Out Of Allen Parish - New Orleans News Story - WDSU New Orleans

We had 666 as our prefix when we lived in Anaheim. It was very cool to freak people out with it :-)

How can even pentecostals / charismatics take this guy seriously??

Watching him has left my wife and I both wondering if he has not done himself emotional damage trying to play the part so well....

anyone else have this observation?

"emotional summer-camp experiences cannot sustain a robust faith through the trials of real life" ... this is so me.

You'd better hope we don't sue you for your cloak...

My Grandparents street address is 666 East 161st Street!! They have had that since the 40s I think!
