It's been a good run, Blogger. For almost exactly three years I have blogged here on a semi-regular basis. I've met many, liked most, engaged in interesting subjects, and read the genius and idiocy of others.
The musings, aphorisms, and perspectives of a "recovering evangelical" who desires to follow God, not necessarily the ecclesial establishment.

Do you think Iowans are better informed than Utahns? I seriously doubt it. If anything, there are fewer organizations and advocates for transparency in public education and far less organization behind School Choice in Iowa than Utah:

There are many "liberal Christians" and non-believers who are understandibly confused by the response of Christ-followers to Obama's election.
The same God that ordained Saul and installed every Pharaoh and every ruler of Rome... The same God that chooses Popes, presidents, Church leaders, and dictators. The same God that chooses some for salvation and doesn't choose others has swayed the hearts of Americans toward Obama for reasons that are His own.Let me know what you think on this subject!
I think what many are confused by is that, of course, no matter how the election turned out we Christ-followers would acknowledge the hand of God in it. The point is that just because God may have raised up a man who stands for many things that are an abomination to Him to fulfill His meta-story as Author of all creation, that doesn't mean God wants ME to support that man's candidacy or celebrate when he wins the election.
God frequently allows good AND evil men to prosper. I leave it to you to decide which Obama is. It's not for me to decide that for anyone else. That doesn't excuse supporting someone just because they won or are going to win.
I will, however, continue to respect the Office of the presidency as long as my inalienable rights are not being accosted from that Office.

I've always been dismayed by pastors who see shepherding as the micromanaging of each person's journey.
Here's an amusing illustration at nakedpastor's blog.

I can't wait to see how this one turns out. We could have a whole new election 2000-type situation here.
