I'll be diving in to save Hemingway. As a redhead, I'm rather used to getting burnt anyhow. It's no fun to burn things that no one would read anyway (like things on your personal bookshelf). I would much rather have a fire directly outside a chri...

While I don't believe in burning books because it smacks of Nazism, among the authors that I would never read are Richard Dawkins, Dan Brown, Deepak Chopra, Joel Osteen , Rick Warren and some others.

Yes, exactly that Hemingway. I realize I'm in the minority, but I don't care at all for his writing style nor his hopeless-feeling, depressing stories.

I would dance my little heart out to see anything from Kenneth Hagin, Oral Roberts, Benny Hinn, Kenneth & Gloria Copeland, Joel Olsteen, and any of the rest of the Word Faith Cult...oh! Movement kindling...oh! material, I mean...:P

I would happily torch any book with "Chicken Soup" in the title; any book by someone name "Olsteen" or "Hemingway". For each like this, there are many more I would risk the fire to save.

Profile Information

Tell us about yourself: My motto:

"God often works by contraries" -Richard Sibbes

I happen to think God has placed me on this earth to be one of those contraries. Ha!

If anyone knows of good books in need of a home, please let me know! I will be happy to adopt orphaned books, especially if they were written by Puritans.

How would you describe yourself theologically?: I hold to the London Baptist 1689 (or 1677, whatever).

Who is the greatest theologian in the last 2000 years? (Besides Biblical People!): Just one? I like Athanasius, and I like John Owen.

What is your web-address?: http://heydooders.blogspot.com

Don't make me

you.

My favorite Church Father-Athanasius
This is a textile piece that I hope to finish soon. Well eventually.

I work at not being offended. A Mr.Spock mentallity is what I try to achieve though not always successful.

Glad you regonized the humor in my comment. I couldn't resist. I know, I'm evil.

I just learned how to convert MS Powerpoint into jpg and have always enjoyed nature and animals. It's a toss up between you, Xulon and Doc Mike as to who gets this pic for their arsonal, maybe all of you. You first, as we're talking at the moment.

Take Care,

Hi Char,
I know we've never met. Thanks for your thoughts. My post was intened only as an encouraging sort of thing. Anyway, I know you love kids and dislike cats so the pics are to be therapy.

Thanks again for your input,
plumber

Theologica UFC-MARV VS CHAR

So I have noticed that Marv is all trying to horn in on my territory (yes I noticed MARV >:( ). He is too much like me and trying hard to be more contentious and pugnacious and tenacious and some other -iouses that I can't think of than I am. HE ISN'T THOUGH. He's just TRYING to be.

I mean think about this: who is the most exasperatingly contentious person here? Who is better at framing even an agreement as a disagreement just to keep arguing? Who rotates their position just so they a… Continue

Night of PIETIST Longfist (scene one)

Scene: a village. (Cut to Harry dealing cards to Char).

Char: Snap

Harry: aw

Char: soon you will learn the ways of quickness my student.

Char hears a noise behind her. Motions to Harry.

Char: stop. I think we are being watched.

voice: you are clever even if degenerate.

PIETIST jumps from bushes. Pushes harry aside, throwing cards to the ground. Harry looks surprised, flips backward, landing on face.

Char rises: who has sent you?

PIETIST: I am concerned with the holiness of the church as… Continue

This is not a quote from Jesus

From 1 Corinthians:

To the married I give this charge (not I, but the Lord): the wife should not separate from her husband but if she does, she should remain unmarried or else be reconciled to her husband, and the husband should not divorce his wife. To the rest I say (I, not the Lord) that if any brother has a wife who is an unbeliever, and she consents to live with him, he should not divorce her.

Now concerning the betrothed, I have no command from the Lord, but I giv
