To my fellow Christians

Posted on by

Hey, y’all. By trying to get the BBC transmission of Jerry Springer: The Opera stopped, you’ve done the following:

  1. Given the show far more publicity than it previously had, or arguably deserved. There are people who didn’t know about the show before the protests but who will now be watching, with some relish, I would have thought.
  2. Confirmed the opinion in many non-Christians’ minds that we’re just a bunch of whinging killjoys.
  3. Made us look, well, silly.

So stop it, OK? God’s big enough to take some criticism, so why can’t we be too? After all, why aren’t we so visibly offended that 6 million children under the age of 5 die every year as a result of hunger?

Blog Aid

Andy Budd has started Blog Aid – a way to help the survivors of the Asian Tsunami using your blog and any affiliate schemes you may have running. I didn’t have any affiliate scheme running, so (as you may have noticed) I’ve set up Google Adsense. I’ve no idea if it will make any money, but any I do make during January will be given to disaster relief efforts.
