That God is contained to Sunday morning. That He is a segmented part of the American life, useful for funerals, crises and sundays. But not much more than that. as a recent tweet wrote, "Just got my God on, now to get my grub on." As if God and grub are coequal. Sigh. Brad’s last blog post..Cool Clouds

Jesus was a Jew… Not that it makes any difference.

God is so omnipotent, that He can’t be boxed in to one nationality/race/group/etc.

But God is so personal, that He IS a White man. He is also Black. And Asian. In fact, that is one of the coolest things about Christianity, that the News can apply to ALL cultures. I think it’s awesome that African Americans have a Black Jesus. God meets us where we are.

And with a video like that, instead of asking “What are some of the worst Western characteristics or ideals we attribute to God?” Let’s ask what are the best characteristics.

God loves everyone. Even White Republicans.

What a cool little film clip!

I’ve been guilty of trying to make god in my image, instead of the other way around.

Some of the worst Western characteristics we have shoved into our God boxes-
- that He is easily understood
- that He holds conservative political views
- that He holds liberal political views
- that He is predictable and obeys formula’s

I could not enjoy this video AT ALL.
I didn’t have any fruit punch to go with my animal crackers.

I do think it is a little blasphemous to show the hearts fly over the plate of vegetables and turn it into two little dancing pieces of candy. I refuse to show this to my children.

However,those are my personal opinions, I do agree God loves Coldplay & U2.

BTW, if that guy riding the groundhog at the end had orange hair, he'd be the felt board version of me. Curtis Honeycutt’s last blog post..Everyday Justice

Well, I think we can all agree on one thing: God loves Coldplay and U2. After all, isn’t that a requirement for graduating from Seminary these days?

Curtis-

Are you seriously trying to tell me that God is a Yankee fan?

It’s obvious that God is a football fan, and he prefers the Dallas Cowboys…
