General Theology
Worth a Thousand Words
by Jimmy Hopper
Most of you have seen the “Motivational” posters that have “inspirational” pictures with an ironic meassage below them. For example, one I saw recently with a baton being passed in a race had the title BLAME, and the message, “Success is usually knowing who to blame.” The company that makes them is Despair.com and they are really quite funny.
I recently saw a poster of that type that is funny, but unlike some of the others, is as true as anything you may ever see, especially within the general context of Southern evangelical religion. In fact, I may print a copy of it to help myself stay straight.
