The Answer is…
Posted on July 14th, 2005 by Reformed Pope into the Uncategorized categoryI know it didn’t make sense, that’s why they always put the answer in the back of the book. Let’s all turn to the pretend back of the book and see that the answer is… C – The Gays.
The story goes like this.
Catalyst is in hanging out in Central America with the CBC crowd and he’s talking with someone who works for one of CBC’s political sister companies (Oregon Family Council, I believe). This guy is telling him how he’s tired of having to react every time “the Gays” do anything. They put out an email, he puts one out. They hold a rally, he starts painting signs.
When Catalyst was telling me this story it occurred to me that we do the same to City Bible. They advertise a conference, we write a post. They start a campaign, we write a post. They preach a sermon, we write a post.
Yes, all we do is write posts, but we are working with a very small budget (the F.U. campaign hasn’t brought in as much cash as we had originally projected).
We talked briefly about a Defense of Grace Campaign (DOGC), but quit when we realized the commitment it would take.

Aha, so the analogy could be expanded:
The Morton Boys : CBC Leadership ::
Anyone else who disagrees with CBC Leadership : CBC Leadership
I get it now….although, notice in the new version that CBC is always on the same side of the colon. Apropos, perhaps in more ways than one?
(oops, sorry, was I just being childish?)
Potty jokes aside, what I mean is that CBC is a reactionary organization rather than a proactive organization, carrying on a passionate and torrid love affair with the “thou shalt nots”. It’s much more comfortable than the proactivity required for showing compassion and doing good in the world.
