What they've done to Chirstianity

I go to church regularly. One of my better friends is a minister. And yet . . .

Today I heard that among the witnesses at the Enron Trial was a professor from Texas Christian University. He seemed reasonable and learned. But, you know what?

After Bush, after Tom Delay, after Pat Robertson, after the Religious Right, after the invasion of Iraq, after the pedophile scandal in the Church, after the bombings of abortion clinics, after attempts to impose Creationism on public schools, after . . . well, after everything . . .

The very first thing I thought was: How could anyone take seriously a witness from an institution with “Christian” and “Texas” in its name?

  1. It's a shadow of it's former self, no? Jesus would hardly recognize his message now. Though he'd probably recognize the Pharisees, though they go by a different name now.

    Horrifying.
