JESUS < 69

This made me laugh because I had known that the discussion of feet had been a euphemism for genitalia but I had never carried the thought over into the NT with foot washing. That puts an entire new spin on things. 

Tone, don't you go start being an apologist all over again!  Hehe
CL, everything we do is just light fun...
We've been doing this for a long time...
Do you want us to change?  For you?

Let me make myself perfectly clear.

While I think this is in poor taste, and I obviously don't like it, the fact that Kusa made this post is not what bothered me on a personal level.

What I was disappointed by was one of my friends giving it kudos.

Rob has since explained himself and apologized. No harm no foul. All is well, and I love Rob. Case closed there, and done so very quickly.

The only reason I am still going on with this is because I think people are being dishonest in treating it like it's completely fine and nothing more than some good, light, clean fun. All hearts and flowers. I mean, really? This was done for the sole purpose of ridicule. At least own up to it!

Consider this scenario:

We're all in high school, and one day you purposely decide to go to school wearing a ridiculous, and provocative version of an outfit one of your class mates wore the day before. When confronted with the fact that you are making fun of your class mate, you say "Oh, I wasn't making fun of her! Just her clothes, you see? It's all in good light fun!"

Yeah... no.

And to answer your question, Igno (and I like you a lot too, btw), no. I don't expect people to change.

But if you do something like this to another person's post regarding something that is very sacred to them, own up to the fact that it's a little more harsh than some "good light fun." Don't be dishonest.
