There is a blog that I follow that is titled....
"Stuff Christians Like"
It has some very humorous entries and every once in a while there will be one that begins to reveal some deeper insight... There have been many entertaining commentaries on the christian sub-culture...
Once, there was a quiz to see how metrosexual your worship leader is...
this sight amazes me.
It is normally well written and pretty clever, but it is not the quality of content that amazes me... it is the quantity of content. The latest entry was #629
six hundred and twenty nine entries about the christian sub-culture, and the weird, quirky, and often unfortunate things that christians have become known for.
I was reading through some of the entries out loud to a couple of the guys at my house and one of them pointed out that the majority of what is written in these entries are only amusing if you are a "christian"... it is basically a site dedicated to inside jokes for christians and poking some fun at itself.... so far around 629 "funs" have been poked at itself...
this seems a little odd to me, and it could be that I just wasn't sure what to write about and this was the fist thing that came to mind.. but still...
it seems a little odd to me.
this is why...
when we pair a christian perspective of christians with an unchristian perspective of christians... at large, two very different observations would be made.
read Unchristian for more on that...
and while this site is obviously made for entertainment... it follows pretty close to the idea that "it's funny because it's true" and there is a part of me that wonders when it won't be funny any longer for the exact same reason... because it is true... time will tell, i suppose. it is kind of a gossip after all...
Just a few thoughts to ponder...
peace.
