The Epitome of Stupidity

This made me laugh:

"Shortly after noon on Fridays, the Rev. Ann Holmes Redding ties on a black headscarf, preparing to pray with her Muslim group on First Hill. On Sunday mornings, Redding puts on the white collar of an Episcopal priest.

She does both, she says, because she's Christian and Muslim"


So... let me see if I understand Mrs Ann correctly (No way am I calling this moron reverand) she believes that Jesus is the Christ. That He is the Son of God. That He is both Divine and Human.. and that He was Crusified, died, and was Resurrected. She believes that He is, as He said, "The Way, The Truth, and the Life." She believes that His death attoned for all sin. She loves the New Testament and spreads the Good News.

She also believes that Jesus was not divine. That He was just a prophet. She believes that He was not Crusified... nor was He resurected. She believes that the teaching of His divine nature are heresy and blasphamy and could be punishable by death. She believes that even if Christ had been crusified, which He wasn't, it still wouldn't attone for anyone else's sin. She rejects the New Testament as heresy and believes those who spread the Good News are Corrupters of the World and should be put to death.

This is the idiot path of Post Modernism.. where rationality and reason are set aside in the interest of feeling. It should be plainly obvious why women are more vulnerable to this nonsense than men.

In my time in the Methodist Church I've been exposed to one female minister that was exceptionally good. The others... have all sucked. Largely for the same reasons... Their sermons always devolve into self-appreciation... bragging.. and meaningless largely unrelated tear-jerker stories.

Bleh.
