Alternative Theologies: Parables for a Modern Age. Which is fine, you do you and I'll do me, whatever. On the surface.

But when I drilled down into the guidelines, I just... made a face.

No, seriously, am I the only one who has a problem with this?

'This is unabashedly critical look at the often hypocritical deviation of the religious right from their biblical and moral base. This will be a disturbing read for some.' Oh, how daring! How transgressive!

How safe.

Some people really need to get over themselves. You are right, this crowd has a very very selective sense of moral outrage. People need to start calling them on it.

'I'm seeing a shrill scolding from people who think they're wits, but are probably only half right.' Heh.

I'm an atheist and I find this disgusting. Wanna impress me? Try exposing the hypocrisy of the left. Oh, wait, you think nobody on the left can do anything wrong, don't you?

Bah to the lot of them.

Not just you. Christian values need to be discussed and each and every one of us has to evaluate whether or not what we are doing at the present time is modelling Christ, but this approach is not going to serve it's intended purpose in any way. We live in turbulent times where the Left and the Right are pulling away from each other as though the other is the epitome of evil. How about an anthology about how we can find common ground and learn to live with each other? Not likely I suspect.

Yeah, that antho is totally aimed at catering to the smug. The only good news is that it'll probably lose money. But the organizers think profit is bad anyway.
