Agnate Manifest

I've decided that attending "The Gospel of John" would be a violation of the Second Commandment. I was persuaded of this fact by John Calvin's commentary on the subject. This is probably going to get some odd looks from Christians I know, but I am firmly persuaded that I would rather know Christ and the power of His resurrection than go and watch a movie about it, no matter how "word for word" it is.

We are too easily swayed by visual images to think that we can watch such a film unscathed. Our bias towards a certain represenation of Christ (that is inaccurate at best) can only influence us in the wrong direction.

I'm developing a rather long explanation of this that I will post here later.

This is a permalink test for Theognome. It appears to be working.
