		<description><![CDATA[The article Betting on A Generous God, by Peter W. Marty in the latest issue of Christian Century has so many lines I love, I decided it was worth a blog post. He perfectly captures my hesitation to join churches. It&#8217;s also a review of the book Love Wins by Rob Bell, which looks like [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=bumpersticker.wordpress.com&amp;blog=607661&amp;post=360&amp;subd=bumpersticker&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Being a Christian who does not take the words of the Bible literally, I always struggle with both Christmas and Easter.

I need to know how [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=bumpersticker.wordpress.com&amp;blog=607661&amp;post=365&amp;subd=bumpersticker&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

The only way this is even slightly okay is if other religious texts are taught in the same class for their &#8220;literary and historic qualities&#8221;. Can&#8217;t help but wonder how well those students who disagree with the literature of the bible will do in [...]<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=bumpersticker.wordpress.com&amp;blog=607661&amp;post=357&amp;subd=bumpersticker&amp;ref=&amp;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
