Welcome! You have accidentally reached the blog of a heteroclite follower of Jesus: dave wainscott. I'm
"pushing toward the unobvious" as I post thinkings/linkings
re: Scripture, church and culture. Hot topics include: temple tantrums, time travel, sexuality/spirituality, U2kklesia, role of the pastor, God-haunted music/art..and subversive videos like these.
Colbert here seems like so many others of his ilk: Pushy about the Bible, picking out extreme examples to highlight, and then demanding that if you claim to believe in God then you therefore MUST believe in every last detail in the Bible. And, of course, he gets some details wrong, but because it's him, that doesn't seem to matter.
hum is all I have to say to this. I am not sure what I think.

ReplyDeleteAnonymous: Colbert's whole show is done in character: a satire of the pushy demanding conservative host. That's why it's on Comedy Channel.
