Random Post: Jack Chick Redux

Just plain making stuff up, Hammond style

He’s getting cannier about knowing that people are going to fact check him. Notice that he makes a point of mentioning that this is “that this is only his opinion” and will be on YouTube. But then he goes on to mocks the ‘freshman theologians’ who are going to disagree with them and says they [...]

FWOTW: BibleBelievers.com

Since we’re in the season, this weeks’ FWOTW was selected for having one of the most over-the-top anti-Halloween pages that I could find. Not content to merely call this Satan’s holiday, this author makes the case that Halloween actually hails back to Baal Worship, cannibalism, incest, and (worst of all!) Roman Catholics. Be sure to [...]

John Wayne

Of all the ways to celebrate a fundamentalist church’s 70th anniversary, I just wouldn’t have foreseen an entry for “Get a John Wayne impersonator” as being anywhere on the list. One can only assume that Texas fundamentalists are a breed unto themselves.

Repentance?

Pastor RA Smith lays it on the line, Bless God.

Numerology

Skipping Sex Ed.

Maybe someone [...]

David Cloud Redux

If you think that wayoflife.org is a hoot to read, try listening to all 5 parts of David Cloud’s sermon “Dangers Facing Fundamental Baptists.” I double dog dare you.

FWOTW: 21tnt.com

The thing that is so impressive about 21tnt.com is not the site itself but rather the enormous number of fundy sites that are listed in a single place. It’s amazing how in one place you can have someone who lauds Jonathan Edwards, Jack Hyles, Charles Spurgeon, John Wesley, George Witfield, Charles Finney, John Bunyan, and [...]

The Monotone Yell, Gasp, and Clap Preaching Style

Even if you removed all the words and just left the tone of voice, you’d still know you were listening to a southern fundamentalist preacher.

By Request: Frank Garlock

“You tell me the kind of music you like to listen to…and I’ll tell you what kind of person you are.” — Frank Garlock I found this gem over at The Basement Rug (an awesome site for lovers of vinyl, btw). It’s from an LP record entitled The Big Beat ~ A Rock Blast in [...]
