Now I would remind you, brothers, of the gospel I preached to you, which you received, in which you stand, and by which you are being saved, if you hold fast to the word I preached to you--unless you believed in vain. For I delivered to you as of first importance what I also received: that Christ died for our sins in accordance with the Scriptures, that he was buried, that he was raised on the third day in accordance with the Scriptures

Here's the part where I try to avoid getting sued ...

As you undoubtedly noticed, I like comics. I wouldn't call myself a "fan boy" because I don't give a flying FOOM what they are worth. That said, almost all the images on my blog are scanned from comics I own, and it would be frankly impossible to tell you where each one comes from specifically.

Many are © and/or ® Marvel Comics Group, with all rights reserved.

Others are © and/or ® DC Comics, which is an arm of Time/Warner, and not only are all rights reserved but they are a little jealous about it, so if I get "the letter" from them, those images are just going to turn into blank spots until I configure out what to do about that.

There are also the occasional images from Valiant, Image, Defiant, and some indies which I'm not sure even have a name, and they are all also © and/or ®, all rights reserved.

All other images not covered by this disclaimer are the property of their respective owners, and if you are one of those people and you see your image on my blog, tell me what you want me to do about it and I will. No sense making people angry.

Hope that helps.

Mark your calendars

This weekend I was trying to catch up on podcasts, and I got Mark Driscoll's first answer to the 9 questions thing, and I got to the Q&A for the late-nite session at Ballard.

This is a historical day.

I just read this post by Steven J. Camp after listening to Pastor Mark Driscoll's birth control Q&A.

... wait for it ...

Wow. I agree with Steve. Not only is that not a talk you'd hear at the local homeschool co-op or in a rural church where guys churn their own butter, that's a talk which simply goes outside the bounds of public decency. Ephesians 5 anyone? It's one thing to give that kind of advice (such as it is) in a private context, but from the pulpit?

Ouch. Steve was brave enough to link to the offending content. Sorry kids -- I'm not that brave. I'm not hardly brave enough to listen to this for more than 30 seconds at a time. ME. And I think he gives bad advice on top of everything else, so there's not much I can do to even say "yeah but ..." on behalf of MHC for this presentation.

Apparently Mark doesn't want to be the 21st century Billy Graham ... or maybe he does and is and I'm the one who doesn't get it. Either way, that's a hall of shame moment for those of us who are on-record as fans of Mark and Acts29.

I need 2 Excedrin and a Coke ...
