For God's Sake, Shut Up!

This Blog is designed to teach Christians how to communicate effectively, which includes knowing when to remain silent. Sadly, Christians often do a poor job of communicating, which can make us look bad and drive people away from God. Sometimes I want to just say to those Christians: "For God's sake, shut up!" I don't mean that profanely. When Christians say dumb things it damages unbelievers' perceptions of our Lord and Savior. Thus we must confront these harmful statements.

    Shut Up Ringtone
    Monday, November 26, 2007
    Recently, the King of Spain told Venezuelan leader Hugo Chavez to "shut up." During a summit, Chavez was interrupting King Juan Carlos. As a result, Carlos pointedly asked Chavez, "Why don't you shut up?" Now, it turns out that his question has become a popular ringtone in Spain. It seems like it would be kind of ironic to hear "why don't you shut up?" when someone calls you! It has also become a popular slogan on T-shirts in Venezuela (which seems like a pretty brave thing to wear). If it was not in Spanish, I might be tempted to get that ringtone for myself!
