Why Goofy?

Why goofy?  Am I in the camp that declares  all church teaching and activity inherently  goofy... or worse?  No No No.  What I declare is that most of the ideas that most people have about church are basically goofy.  That includes mine. Join the club. Let us accept each others goofiness.

A Good Old Word

I guess I was raised in a "liberal" church a very long time ago.  But I don't remember the loaded Liberal and conservative labels being hatefully fired at anyone who doesn't agree with you.  What "liberal" meant to me was that I was free to question and make up my own mind. That's my kind of liberal.  Today's liberals are pretty close to being reverse fundamentalists.

Religion gets bad press..

It's big time cool to say vile things about organized religion in general and Christianity in particular.  Churches and church people do a whole lot of good things.  But that's not news.

What's Next?

Oh yeah, I said it a time or two already.   I do not know what happens when you die. I know a lot of theories about it.  I like some of them. Others not so much. You are quite welcome to tell me I am hell-bound.  I will respectfully listen but I won't change my mind. Or maybe I will.  So keep hammering away, just in case.
