Amazing piece of writing

[hel_ana]

In a five part series, bradhicks outlines some very, very salient points about the current state of Christianity in the United States.

Some of it (especially in the second part, where he discussed the origins of a Faustian bargain between the Republicans and the the leaders of the evangelical and fundamentalist churches) is disturbing. Some of it is enlightening. And some of it, for me at least is inspiring, outlining as it does the biblical and theological arguments for many of the aspects of the faith I try to practice.

All of it should be read, if for no other reason than to be able to knock the legs out from bad arguments, and to understand some of what's been happening in this country.

Do I think it's all true? Of course not. It's still something written by some guy and has to be read critically. But I do think it should be read.
