The unpayable debt that I owed you
- It's official. Some churches are actually more evil than the devil
- And speaking of our cloven-footed friend, the world's stupidest Bible translation is underway. (I assumed this was a parody, but apparently it's horribly real. Much discussion in the blogosphere.)
- The Glo Bible, on the other hand, looks like fun. Very Mac.
- And another new Bible, illustrated by R. Crumb. You can see some of the controversial sex scenes here and here.
- A five-part video interview with Miroslav Volf
- A discussion of Sarah Coakley's inaugural lecture at Cambridge, on evolution and sacrifice
- Charles Taylor on Habermas
- James B. Torrance audio lectures: prayer and the triune God of grace
- On Oliver O'Donovan and Christian mission – with a response by Halden
- God as audience
- More on theologians and their crazy talk
- Investigations of Benny Hinn continue
- Essential books for preachers
- (In)essential systematic theology texts
- Best theological toilet book?
- And I'm sure you've heard by now of the Vatican's astonishing new apostolic constitution, opening the way for disaffected Anglican groups to enter into full communion with Rome. Evan has some commentary. And here's a video of Rowan Williams, pretending not to be stunned in the headlights.
I'm disappointed that James 5 remains untranslated so far. Would be interesting to see how they dealt with "Go to now, ye rich men, weep and howl for your miseries that shall come upon you."
Though as Christopher Hill points out in The World Turned Upside Down, the Geneva Bible's marginal note helpfully pointed out to its prosperous, middle-class Puritan readers that James was only talking about "the wicked and profane rich"...
It looks to me as though this Bible is similar in approach to that other great open translation of the Bible, the lol kitteh bible

I loved this quote on a link from the site for the evil church.
"If the King James Bible was good enough for my Lord and Savior, it should be good enough for me!"
Father Crumb, preachin' the Word. A-men
"We will also be burning Satan's music such as... oldies but goldies, etc."
Perry Como! That's the devil's music, ya hear!
