May 2012 Screwballs

[ukchristian28]

This may come as a surprise to everyone but I am nominating Ed Babinski for an antiscrewball. Yes, an antiscrewball. He commented on my video where I defend J.P's channel rules and me managed to say it all in one comment. I would have excpected at least 5 comments at once from him.. Here's what he said:

I have been watching J.P. Holding since about 1995 when he began spewing forth a river of insults to authors of The Jury Is In [a chapter by chapter critique of Evidence That Demands a Verdict]. JP never linked back to the pages or people he was criticizing. Though I do think he learned a little from that as well as from things he read later as to why citing OT prophecies as proof of Jesus' messiah-ship was a questionable apologetic that even he warns people against using today.

CheekyVimto08 on Crazypills2's video:

"So 2 dislikes. Tekton's followers don't seem to be particularly interested in hearing counterarguments."

Now, how ironic is that?:)

Seems like there's a new Gnostic in town who doesn't believe that the "mythical bible God" can love:

Sounds like a new chew toy to go play with... this could be a great deal of fun.

I just listenined to an RZIM Just Thinking Series by Amy Orr-Ewing (parts 1,2,3,4) and in the 4th part she comments that she used to battle a bit with the concept of a Loving God also being a judge. Until she and her husband started pastoring a church in a very rough part of London. She tells a story that happened to a woman who goes to a friend's church where this woman, who used to a be a prostitute and since being saved has married a Christian man, was walking to church and was kidnapped by her former pimp and drugged and seriously abused for four days (she says she has similiar stories from her own church but told this one as it keeps it more anonymous for privacy). She says through seeing things like that she now understands that a Loving God has to be the Judge.

Something about that guy reminds me of a former poster on this site...I just can't remember who right now. I want to say there's something very UrbanMonk-esque about him (although this guy uses different vocabulary), but...perhaps I'm thinking of someone else.

I just cannot stand his handle.

I pointed it out to Cath and lpot, and a report was filed on his username.

I think I've got it. He reminds me of FarEastBird. It's that snobby, flippant arrogance that reminds me of him.

Bart Ehrman makes some blunders, and misrepresents Dan Wallace:

Lamest-He-Is has set an all-time record for Fastest Time in making it onto my ignore list.

The average cup of yogurt has more culture than an Adam Sandler movie.

I have to admit I enjoyed 50 First Dates And The Wedding Singer, but other than that I just don't see the point. I was kind of hoping he would start doing better movies. Kinda like Steve Martin did after the dumb early. Alas.

IMO, he hasn't been in anything remotely funny or entertaining since Happy Gilmore.
