It is an interesting website, completely uninformed and highly biase but interesting. I read what they had to say about C.S. Lewis and was both apauled and humored. They make alot of accusations without any firm proof. But I am glad you found it. I really wish it were titled "we are corrupt and stupid Christians."

well... it's almost midnight, and I haven't read everything they say there... but here's what I think.

I think they're right... that corruption in the "Christian industry" certainly exists. I've seen it first hand (no names mentioned, but you can probably figure it out).

On the other hand... it seems that the writer(s) of this site are coming from an extremely legalistic perspective... they'd probably fit in well with that church I was telling you about where the guy said rock music was of the devil because it had a beat. A lot of what I read there was taken out of context. This quote, copied directly from the site, shows that I can't really take anything they say too seriously:

God requires us to reflect Him and if we condone and show love and grace to unrepentant sinners such as homosexuals, let alone appear as one, we are not reflecting Christ.

(The Gospels don't mention homosexuals specifically, but Jesus certainly loved unrepentant sinners. He still told them they had to repent, but that didn't mean he didn't love them.)

woah, are you kiding, is that what it says?

"to those for whom sin is just a word, salvation is just a word also."

the man with the larger dept is the most grateful to have it relieved. This will never happen if we don't "show love and grace to unrepentant sinners"

how the heck else could it be said that christians are ministers of reconciliation?
