Christian "Pick-Up" Lines and other Stuff from Around the Web

Christian singles can have a rough time, but this is not helping!  How about this dud of a line to strike up a conversation with someone of the opposite sex:  'I didn't believe in predestination until tonight."  That's about as lame as it gets.  Using such a bone-headed pick-up line probably should be grounds for church discipline!  But then there's this one:  "Let me sell you an indulgence - it's a sin to look as good as you."  Ugh . . .  Click here: Christians learn the art of dating - Telegraph 

That didn't take long!  An evangelical publisher (Zondervan) already has a Palin biography in the works.  The speed at which Christian publishers can crank stuff out is absolutely amazing to me!  Click here: Christian Book Publisher to Release Palin Tome - America’s Election HQ

Archaeologists have found several additional sections of the ancient walls of Jerusalem.  Important stuff.  But why does the story show pictures of beer bottles and an old shoe?  At first glance, you might think they were David's and Solomon's.  You'll be disappointed if you read the whole story.

Hey girl, did Christ already return, cuz that has got to be a glorified body!

Those pick-up lines are funny.

On Zondervan, I don't see how you can still consider it evangelical or even Christian. Isn't it owned by non-believers? It even says in the same report that it's a division of Harper Collins, which is a property of News Corp. It sure seems sad to me that unbelievers end up owning what was once truly owned by Christians. What other publishing companies are now owned or run by the ungodly? I think that only a few like P&R and Banner of Truth are run by Christians.

Best pick up line... in dialogue form.

"Hey, can I ask you a question."

....ok, what?

"Your Beatiful"

...That's not a question

"Your right, there's no question about it."

Those pick up lines remind me of the days when I used to be a Wittenberg Door Magazine reader. During the early days when the magazine first came out it was hilarious. They would have satirically ripped that Christian dating service apart (along with the pickup lines). I forget the guys name who was the original editor of the magazine but he was a hoot. If I remember right he had to resign his position due to an alcohol problem. The magazine went downhill after he left. It is now more like Sojourners than anything else and not nearly as satirical and funny.

Not only should using those pickup lines be grounds for Church discipline they should be banned from listening to the White Horse Inn.

The funniest pick-up lines of all are the first two submitted to this blog.

I am not a fan of on-line personals, but as a 51 year old never-been-married Christian woman, it is hard to find a mate. Particularly in my age bracket. Talk about being in a minority!

Palin is the newest in the constellation of American star-celebrities (demi-gods). Never underestimate the profit motive ;-)

"The name is Will. God's Will."

I like that one, but my name isn't "Will." Oh, and I'm married.

"God told me to come talk with you"

"God says Christians need accountability partners"

And then of course there is the all-time classic
"The Bible says we are to greet one another w/ a holy kiss"

I just saw on Tim Challies blog that Tyndale is also going to publish a Palin biography. There must be some good money to make from this.
