Awesome Dude

This guy, while reviled by some, is pretty awesome.  Sometimes I wish as I had changed my mind I could have done something like this.  Luckily I was not close enough friends w/ Molotov cocktail making retards to have done much.

Problem of Evil: Another World is Possible?

Is another world possible?  Not until Christ metes out perfect justice.  Don't get me wrong, I think Shane Clairborne is an admirable guy.  I agree that we should focus on living our own lives as Christ-like as possible.  I also agree that our hope is not in this world.  That just doesn't lead me to 'anarchism'—whatever that even means.  (An 'anarchist' world would make ours look like sunshine and lollipops, but more more on that later). 

Let's put 'Christian anarchists' aside for now since I think we more wish to argue with regular old God-hating anarchists/punks/activists/leftists.  The message we need to deliver to these people is this:  capitalism, democracy, or whatever is not the right enemy.  Sin is. 

People concerned primarily with social justice often completely lack personal justice.  Activists I know are not only the most sexually immoral people I have ever met, they are also the most, disloyal, lying, stealing and cheating.  They have elevated their feeling of oughtness about social justice to the point where it had drowned out their feeling of outness (otherwise known as a conscience) in their personal lives.  You cannot escape Genesis Three.
