It is week 5 already. Nancy Aument was our speaker. Nancy has a way of really getting the class involved in deep discussion on controversial topics that spawn heated discussion.
HERE ARE A FEW OF THE TOPICS WE DISCUSSED
"Jesus is wimpy" "God in a Box" "Heavenly Bosom" "Pale Galilean" "The Cop Within"
" God in a Hurry" "God is an Old Man"
IListed these in my official school journal as "Things that make you say WHAT?
Proably most of you are thinking the same things I was thinking at first glance. These topics are offensive and border on being sacrilegious. The topics were talking points in Nancy's presentation. She did an excellent job of explaining these offensive points in a way that spawned vigorus and sometimes heated discussion to break out in class. Some supported the topics some did not and argued vociferously against them. Some expressed another idea entirely. The end result of the whole 4 days was to get everyone to think about issues that are vital if we are to be followers of Jesus and defend the faith. The points made were of common but destructive misrepresentations of things in Christianity and the church.
NANCY YOU REALLY MADE US THINK.
It would serve no purpose to pose a discussion of thes topics in this venue. So just think about what you would say to someone who hit you with one of these topics.
Thank you Nancy
Bob
