Open Bar: ASSUMING DIRECT CONTROL

[Mesozoic Mister Nigel]

Your doc might be willing to leave a letter at the front desk for you. Mine does that, because the whole "you need a note from the doctor" thing is so much bullshit.

Ain't my doc.  He's fucked off to Switzerland for 3 weeks, to go skiing.

It's the urgent care clinic.

e-cig even seems to slow the coughing down (which makes sense).

Can't imagine what this would be like if I still used the old-fashioned shit.

If that doesn't skeeve you out bad, nothing will.

How interesting that all that he "sees" is ugly, violent, sexual, and predatory.

I was going to say the exact same thing.  He probably vacations in Salazore.

You know, if I was a Christian and I believed in the devil, I would be inclined to suspect that Mark Driscoll is possessed by Satan.

That, interestingly is not an out of the question idea. Catholics and Orthodox would most certainly see him as a heretic and someone who for either reasons of insanity or by design, a deceiver.

[The Good Reverend Roger]

Can't stop shaking.

And then.

AND THEN.

AND THEN.

My living room is 30 feet long.  I am 4 feet from the wall.  I just sneezed a wad of phlegm all the way across the room, striking the wall 8 feet off the ground (vaulted ceiling).  So I had to get my unbalanced, shaky ass up on a chair (yes, I know better, shut up) to clean the results of this herculean expectoration.

Naturally, I fell off the chair.

Naturally, I landed on my tailbone.

THANKS A LOT, OBAMA.

He doesn't have another doctor he refers to when he's out of town?

He's scary. His church has a concept they call "sinning through questioning".

Yes, and she is down with the sickness.  So to speak.

Wow.  It's like an endgame for cult behavior.

Yeah, they're HORRIBLE. And they have over 5000 members.

I predict an implosion within the next 5 years. Possibly a kiddie-diddling scandal.

I'm predicting special koolaid within 36 months.  No shit.

First full day in Florida resulted in forcing my dad to define socialism, and then my brother and I discussing our side effects from sugar free candy.

And kitten. Lots and lots of kitten.

Ho ho ho!

and...WHOA:

http://www.slate.com/articles/life/faithbased/2012/02/mars_hill_pastor_mark_driscoll_faces_backlash_over_church_discipline_case_.html

Mars Hill is nondenominational, which means it doesn't formally answer to any outside institutional bodies, so Driscoll holds the power. He has preached against "sinning through questioning" and once said publicly he would like to "go Old Testament" on dissenters. He has reported that he can sometimes "see things" about his members' past sins.

and

The letter, posted on Turner's site, included instructions on how to ostracize Andrew; having a meal or going to a concert with him were deemed "not permissible." The document included examples of how to decline the ex-member's attempts to reach out: "Andrew, I would enjoy time with you but I can't because you're under church discipline. You can join me if we can talk about your refusal to listen to God and the church."

All religions go through that phase, I think. The thing is mainstream Christianity has largely outgrown that. Even with claims of Papal infallibility, you have liberal Catholics who divorce, have premarital sex, approve of same-sex marriage and abortion (man it really is largely about gender and reproduction, isn't it? Catholics are liberal as fuck otherwise), and are technically at odds with Rome and should be excommunicated (consider the implication of the word- unable to take communion), but still participate in Mass, still believe. I suspect it is similar for Orthodox or mainline Protestant. These guys want you to admit making out with a girlfriend/boyfriend publicly as a sin. And sign contracts. That sounds incredibly draconian, even in the context of Christianity found in the Roman Empire.
