Jeremy, your writing is extremely reactionary. I don't believe you do much justice to the discussion by flat-out declaring Brian's wrongness of interpretation. You characterize his views as disregarding Christ's judgement and pitching it in the bin. You are entitled to your opinions and i understand you are angry, but come on. Brian doesn't at all 'delete' Christ's judgement. A sword coming out of his mouth is still a sword. Blood shed is still blood shed. Of course there is judgement in Brian's view of the revelation Christ, it just isn't your view, I guess. I wish you would be more honest about the imperfections of all our interpretations. There is no absolute Christian doctrine and I think you are very unfair to try to hold Brian up to such. We all have interpretations. The best reason for yours or mine or Brian's being true is how well it promotes things like love and grace and mercy and justice. I know my views are wrong on many levels while I don't know precisely where they are wrong; however, I hope than even when I am wrong I can still be fair and loving. That is a critique of myself, by the way, not you.

tldr;
I love your passion, but stop reading your own presuppositions into the perceived absences between Brian's words.

thanks for sharing this portion of your story raffi. my own development is so similar. i swear i used to even give off a smell of superior righteousness.. sort of smelled like overpowering, chemical-y fabric softener.. i think.

i find intensedebate to be quite a sweet system. i used something similar about a year ago, but got scared off it by the lack of critical mass.. but it seems we are there now.

clearly this graph does not measure coolness on the retro-ironic scale. otherwise you would see walk(men?) skyrocket beyond all competitors around about 2005
