"i think stan needs to do a battle of violent/nonviolent theologies with pat robertson"

alright- who'd gonna win in the great battle of faith? Will it be Stanley The Cussin Texan Hauerwas, or Pat "Killem' With Kindness.... Or Anything Else But Just Killem" Robertson?

You decide....

Watch Hauerwas here.
Watch Robertson here.

Awww, man, I thought it was gonna be like rock'em sock'em robots! I think they both lose, since Pat will assassinate Stan, but then Pat deals with the Judgment Seat of Heaven. (For the record, Pat's hawkish attitude flies in the face of just war conceptions of theology. Pat is more akin to some of the extreme theocratic Calvinists and Catholic Inquisitors who saw the sword as a tool of both the state AND the Church).

Thank you Jonathan for that Hauerwas link....I had not seen that video yet. I particularly like the last 15 minutes when he answers the questions about the cracks. Great stuff.

i hate to say this, but "don't mess with texas"

gavin, haven't they stopped littering in Texas yet, I mean geez, that campaign is like centuries old.

I have always thought that its hysterical that the texans are SO PROUD of their "dont mess with texas" slogan and it comes from a "do not litter" campaign.
