Looks like the fundamentalists are gunning for this guy. But fuck 'em. I like the cut of his jib. I like his spirit. His name is Rob Bell and he has written a book called LOVE WINS. He is accused of the most horrendous heresy of all: univeralism. Universalism is the idea that somehow, everyone is saved by God and none are damned. (Shit! I mean, what's the point of going to heaven if EVERYBODY gets there, right? Doesn't God have any standards?) Now there is some controversy as to whether he really is a universalist, and I cannot enter into it, having not read the book (but I'm going to). Check out this inspiring video of his on Youtube.
I mean, this is the sort of thing we Christians should be saying. Christ overcomes the power of death. Christ is defeated by the empire, and in turn overcomes it!
