Read some of the comments on ebaum – some were funny but mostly sad. I think the long hair is what was so offensive – only kidding.

Some people out there are carrying around some really heavy stuff inside. It must be wearing them out.

Dude either way your costume is awesome. I am reading the book unChristian right now and what you are wearing fits directly into the sheltered chapter. Keep up the good work.

Interesting too that a snarky costume, sarcastic even, in response to intolerance, led to more intolerance. I think it’s definitely funny in the right crowd, and there has to be room for humor, but would you feel righteous intolerance towards a person who spoofed you living out your call?

The protesters, your costume, and the ebaum reaction: Were all of these events motivated by a sort of intolerance? I think there’s a third side to this blog post that has yet to be written…

Now see, I was always taught that sex led to dancing.

Didn’t even recognize the two of you. I was about to email a link to one of my interns who regularly discusses legalism with me…

I remember the protestor(s) at Anaheim.
And I remember you handled it quite well. Don’t argue, go take him a coffee (I think you said) and I think I remember him having several coffees around him the next time I passed by.

If you did not know them though, you can make quite a case. To me, that is the intriguing thing about perception and the case studies tha can be done.

The comments and I read hundreds were very interesting.

Mark-O, way to cause a stir.

I don’t laugh outloud often reading blogs but the thought that people truly thought that the photo of you and Jeannie was actually real made me laugh quite robustly.

Marko — Wow. If they knew their stuff, they would’ve known that the fonts you used to make your signs and t-shirts were way too happy looking to be real :) Both shirts are funny, but Jeannie’s is seriously awesome. I think I might have our next retreat theme lined up now!
