This doesn’t happen very often…
So I’m reading this article this morning and I find a quote from… me. This doesn’t happen very often and it’s a bit odd. To be reading along an then get hit with something like that. I wrote the line the article quoted about 5 or 6 years ago, so I actually had to think, is this Mark Riddle me? Did I write this? Do I still agree with this?
This is the original article from april 04 on theooze.com
My favorite part of this is
“Look, “This bloods for you shirts” were cute 10 years ago. But how creative do you have to be to come up with one? As I write this I’m sitting next to the dog food. I’ll give those snappy advertising execs a free-be. IAMS Dog food. Change that to – “I Am’s Lamb formula -It’s good for life.” I’ll bet if you put IAMS dog food in a Christian Bookstore the stock would soar! Maybe a smart business move for IAMS. However, it’s not much for forwarding the gospel.
Did we really think that when Christ said “Thy kingdom come” he meant building a Christian subculture?? Most evangelical conservative churches are going the way of the Amish…. the only difference is that their U-haul is a hell of a lot bigger and it’s filled with less meaning. “
