Which Fantastic 4 Character Are You? |
|
 |
You are part Mr. Fantastic. You’re the typical dork, but this time it pays to be smart. With a beautiful woman chasing you, life seems great. Now you just need to stop being so noble and obsessed with your work. |
 |
You are part The Silver Surfer. Chance has it that you’re the villain with unbounded power and treachery. Although at most times you are definitely a force to be reckoned with, deep down lies a confused soul. |

You are Bill Buchanan. You are a law abiding citizen and in your world, rules are the driving force behind anything and everything.

| You Are From Pluto |
 You are a dark, mysterious soul, full of magic and the secrets of the universe. You can get the scoop on anything, but you keep your own secrets locked in your heart. You love change and you use it to your advantage, whether by choice or chance. You don’t like to compromise, to the point of being self-destructive with your stubborness. Live life with love, and your deep powers will open the world to you. |
HT Eternal Echoes. But see this.
The worst theological invention
Ben Myers is stirring up some fun again – here.
I’m with Steve that the doctrine of penal substitution (tightly defined as post-first millenium) is one of the worst. But actually, what I believe is the worst is to do with the Eucharist – the shift in meaning of ‘The Body of Christ’ in the Western church in the first two hundred years of the second millenium. I think that is responsible for almost all the disasters that have happened to the faith since then – including penal substitution and biblical inerrancy (which is what I voted for). But I’ll say much more about that in week 3 of my learning church sequence (Cavanaugh talks about it, but our present understanding stems primarily from the work of de Lubac).
Cool
Great (and short) quiz – ‘which church father are you’ – here (via JP). I’m quite pleased with my result!
|
You’re St. Justin Martyr! You have a positive and hopeful attitude toward the world. You think that nature, history, and even the pagan philosophers were often guided by God in preparation for the Advent of the Christ. You find “seeds of the Word” in unexpected places. You’re patient and willing to explain the faith to unbelievers. Find out which Church Father you are at The Way of the Fathers! |
