Ecological Footprint Quiz
I stumbled onto this quiz through another Blog that I have been enjoying: Emerging Pensees. Mike Clawson is a young pastor in Illinois who wrestles with how we are to live our lives as authentic, vibrant and dynamic Christians who love everyone we come into contact with, even non-Christians (gulp!). As I mentioned in an earlier post, I have recently learned that I am very sympathetic to the Emerging Church movement, and this is mostly because I see in its attitudes the love for one another that Christ commanded. Evidently, there are other movements in Christianity that consider the Emerging movement to be heretical (one writer went so far as to say that Kyle Lake--the Baptist Pastor who graduated from Lee just after me, who was Emergent and who was electrocuted while performing a baptism in front of his congregation--was killed by God for his Emergent message! I may be simple-minded here, but when offered two "versions" of Christianity, one which teaches love and tolerance and that focuses on Grace, and one which takes satisfaction when someone outside of its in-group dies, I findmyself attracted to the loving, graceful version.
Anyway, Mike Clawson is intelligent and thoughtful, and always respectful of all sides of the issues he addresses. I hope I am anything near like him.
