Bad Signs, part 2

Well, folks, this will no doubt become a regular feature here on the Street. Check out Thunder Jones with his usual insightful analysis of churchly nonsense. It seems to me that the idea of evangelism as sales is cut from the same cloth as worship as entertainment.

(It is possible that evangelism, worship, the church, etc. are all sui generis, like God? Or is it just that we've laid hold of some deeply flawed analogies?)

BTW, check out Thunder's so-called "Mundane Life" if you haven't already: it's a great mix of theology, social criticism, politics, Duke Basketball, and -- maybe best of all -- good food.
