Did God write the bible himself I would say no... so to this poll does it count me as being a non biblical literalist?
Or did they ask people in school or coming out of school people which do you think is right evolution or creation? Or perhaps ask them can you account for all the errors in the bible. any number of loaded question would make a literlist answer in favor of what this poll wanted to say!
Polls mean shite.. Just ask Clinton or anyone else who thought she would win! Polls can say anything you want them to say it is the most dishonest form of getting a collective feel.
I honestly think you guys have little to no clue on how involved the church really is. Sure aspects are dying but others are growing like wild fire. just look at christian music as a genre while it is not exactly mainstream pop it is still a billion dollar a year industry. while just 20 years ago when evangelicals were at the peak of power it was almost nonexistent. Before every major reformation or restoration of the church.. there is a push towards music. There was in the form of christian rock and the exodus of the dying church and a move to a system of belief that embraces this music as well as the standards the evangelicals wanted to only keep.
All I'm saing us before you set your cauldron in the front yard and start cooking children in an attempt to make a youth potion know that the old gaurd is in process of passing the torch, don't think the new is going to just roll over or not be there.
Drich,
I don't care; I grew-up in an era where sodomy was a crime that could get a homosexual couple arrested, handcuffed and taken to jail; doesn't happen anymore.
Prior to that (in 70s), biological men could be arrested for being in public while wearing a skirt; doesn't happen anymore. (And, as a biological man, I wear skirts, publicly, and no one has even looked at me, except, on occasion, in approval.)
And, so, what do you think has changed over the last 40 to 50 years?
have you lost you mind?
what does any of this gay crap have to do with the church/thread subject title?
Bait and switch much?
Do you want to see how someone really reacts to a subject he truly give 0 shites about??
Observe the following:....
did you see it? here it goes again: ....
meaning ... is the total interest I can generate in your new subject because for realze I do not care.
