I’m on
strike!
I’m on strike and not
writing columns. Go read something
else and leave me alone. I’m tired of
Baptist[1]
hate mail. Holy cow! I forgot how mean Christians can be when they
disagree with you. Are these guys typical of the new Evangelpublican
church?
Someone asked Charles
Spurgeon, the famous Baptist preacher in
However
I should say thanks to the Wesleyans,
Nazarenes, & Methodists[2]—who
do like provocative writing
and like to get their minds stirred up to think once in a while even when they
don’t agree with the writer.
So I’m
going on strike until a thousand of you write to me. I know there
are several thousand people each week who “hit” on my column—but you never
write leaving me with the impression the Internet world is full of haters. So write a sentence and tell me who you
are—are you a thinking Baptist? A
Presbyterian? A Wesleyan? Nazarene?
Catholic? Who are you quiet lurkers who
never write and say a thing? If you
want me to come back you’ve got to balance out the angry haters—this is not the
Fox Network—I want to cause people to think not shout. When I see there are
some appreciative people who read these columns and use them to think more I’ll
come back. It is up to you. Until there’s a thousand responses from the
quiet thinkers I’ll do my “day job.”
It is my “pastoral vote”
time. ;-)
