Poll lol
Turns out the Time Magazine poll was “pwned” by the 4Chan.org people. That’s as funny as Colbert getting his name on a Nasa spaceship…
K-Ruddy rating
K-Rudd has scored 114th place in an online Time Magazine “World’s Most Influential Person” survey. The guy who won was “Moot” – the founder of 4chan.org (the creators of LolCats).
It’s Time
Time Magazine has just published a list of the 10 ideas changing the world right now. Number 3. New Calvinism.
There’ll be a bunch of links to some reactions in my link post today. But here’s the actual article.
And here’s a quote:
“Calvinism, cousin to the Reformation’s other pillar, Lutheranism, is a bit less dour than its critics claim: it offers a rock-steady deity who orchestrates absolutely everything, including illness (or home foreclosure!), by a logic we may not understand but don’t have to second-guess. Our satisfaction — and our purpose — is fulfilled simply by “glorifying” him.”
The article names John Piper, Mark Driscoll and Albert Mohler as leaders of this pack.
It’s something unpredictable
But in the end it’s right… I can not believe I just referenced a Greenday song.
Readers may be shocked to learn that this blog was not listed in Time Magazine’s 25 best blogs of 2009. Maybe next year. Here’s the list of the 25 best and the 5 most overrated. Some are probably worth subscribing to.
