When Christians shy away from speaking the Gospel we lose our prescence and lose our right to speak. So I will not make it a point to confront every insanity of Godlessness, but I will not shy away from it as well. From a internet blog point-of-view, to speak about topics that are relevant or current, brings more readers. I want people to read this. I don't want to waste my words. I also am experimenting with the type of material that this blog will best lend itself to and what is the best writing and thinking style. Thanks for the comments! Jonathan:

I am not sure why you felt compelled to respond to them. The reason I comment is because I care about your writing. I think your writing here is good, but your material (what you are responding to . . . is a bit irrelevent, which is always a subjective judgment). anyway, the world is full of irrelevence! How can you escape it? I'm happy to see you writing though.

It is worse for a 'Christian' to say thanks to Jesus and then get caught with their hand in the cookie jar. I would also agree that this selling of the site is pretty silly.
