Maybe she thinks Chris is the Alpha male and can’t resist him, yet tries to pull away for fear of losing herself in his masculinity. Of course, I could just be paraphrasing.

Wow who would have thought that Rob Bell’s Wiki page would have been a melting pot for crazy. Can’t we all just be friends?

Chris,

What exactly did Sheldon say? I am an educated kinda guy…..but I haven’t got a clue?

Maybe my alpha waves are messed up?

Sorry, Bridget/Sheldon, but the amount of nonsense in your rant(?) leads me to seriously suggest that perhaps your current dosage is not sufficient for what ails you.

I’m not sure why you think I find “everything is happy and fine and good”, or why I would support mob rule (which kind of negates the first suggestion, but, um… whatever.) As far as opposing evil, I would suggest there is a whole lot more outside the walls of the church than within, and that setting your sights on any/all who disagree with your particular systematic doctrinal interpretations (which is not the same as opposing scripture, despite what John McArthur might tell you) is not setting your sights on “evil”, but being divisive and graceless.

Animals & alpha waves? What? Do you need a tinfoil hat for those?

I was outraged and ashamed after hearing about some of Chris Lyons’s latest methods of interpretation. To organize my discussion, I suggest that we take one step back in the causal chain and condemn — without hesitation, without remorse — all those who declare that everything is happy and fine and good. Chris can’t fool me. I’ve met presumptuous ochlocrats before, so I know that there is still hope for our society, real hope — not the false sense of hope that comes from the mouths of hate-filled prevaricators but the hope that makes you eager to oppose evil wherever it rears its benighted head. This is a lesson for those with eyes to see. It is a lesson not so much about his worthless behavior but about the way that his squibs have kept us separated for too long from the love, contributions, and challenges of our brothers and sisters in this wonderful adventure we share together — life! I have just enough stomach left to address one last instance of Chris Lyons’s vindictive imbecility: Chris sincerely believes that animalism resonates with the body’s natural alpha waves

Mark,

I probably wasn’t clear enough in my writing, but I THOUGHT for awhile that he was Ken Silva. However, it was later revealed to be a totally different person.

Hopefully he will pick up some better negotiating skills prior to his second year of law school, as that is a key capability for effective lawyering…

I found Ken Silva’s choice for himself of the name “gump”, as in “Forrest Gump” was extraordinarily insightful of Mr. Silva. If you watch the movie, Forrest was mentally challenged and really didn’t understand all that was going on around him except for one thing. Forrest knew that he loved Jenny very much. Likewise, Ken has no clue other than he knows that he HATES Bob Bell very much.

Great work, Chris.

It’s the little tools that make the vandals happy.

1. Wiki’s.
2. Big words like “preterist.”
3. A little Christian college education, where they learned the big words.

That kind of stuff.

Glad you stuck it out. This kind of nonsense — “God raised me up and has seen fit to bless me with the opportunity to mess with a Wiki” — is incredibly embarrassing, coming from other supposed Christians.

Robbo – Done.
