Glenn WHO?

I am no follower of Glenn Beck. I took a dim view of social action churches before I ever heard of him. Why? Simple. I don't want church or clergy telling me who to vote for or what socio-political issues I should care about. I don't want sermons, either pro or con, right or left, about rights issues, abortion,environment, health care, economy, etc. etc. I'm capable of making up my own mind about all that, thank you. I am so old fashioned and out of touch that I actually want to hear clergy talk about God. I don't even mind if they mention Jesus once in a while.

Here's where I am

I doubt that anybody gives a rodent's rear about where I am on church stuff. Should there be such a one someplace, it's pretty simple. I remain a most interested, maybe even fascinated observer of what's happening in the churches ... all of them ... but I feel no need to be an active participant in any of them.

New Word for God?

Give me a break! What most bugs me about John Spong and his followers: The idea that those goofy questions and his answers are some hot, new, cutting edge thinking. We have been searching for new ways to talk about religion as long as language has existed.
