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.

    Two Pieces
    Friday, October 02, 2009
    Have two new pieces that just came out. The first is a column in the BGCM E-Message, which is the monthly newsletter of the Baptist General Convention of Missouri. The piece is entitled "Building Theology" and reflects on the importance of thinking about the messages churches are communicating about themselves. The second piece is an Ethics Daily article entitled "Ambitious Senate Climate Change Bill Introduced."

      On Climate Bill:

      All this, yet the earth is cooling and may well cool for the next couple of decades!

      That would make another interesting article!

      Yes, Cat's Dad, it is interesting. More so than you may know, in fact.

      Thanks for the reference, though it's most likely a spin source.
      I did read it.

      However, speaking in September at the U.N.'s World Climate Conference in Geneva, Professor Mojib Latif of Germany, one of the world's foremost climate modelers and a lead author for the U.N.'s Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, admitted that the Earth has been cooling and is likely to continue that trend for the next couple of decades.

      Latif predicts the warming trend will pick up again, but it must be natural cycles that convince him.

      There's an agenda much broader than temperatures behind all the global warming fear. Some of it is money, some just ideology.
