Mar-its a toss up for sure. Jon & Kate will only be a cliff hanger for this next season. PVR it if you need too!

Jeff:
Do you know if the video is posted online somewhere in order to watch it again and discussion? If not do you know if there is anyway to get a hold of the video

The programme, and these corpse of Falwell Megachurches remind me of the timeless McLuhan axiom: The Medium is the Message. I fear that the medium itself is distracting from the content. These ‘churches’ attempt to create a spectacle rather then be rich in content.
And not to mention that the whole movement is a tad bit anti intellectual.
This is what I wrote about it:

Sam-Thx for your comment. Pastors, churches and evageslists have been using the medium FOR the Message for hundreds of years. (some may say thousands depending on your earth dating theology). As one example: Back in the 1700-1800 churches in Europe and North America would take pub/bar songs, keep the tune and change the lyrics.
It is easy for us to sit back and criticize without knowing the heart of Carey Niuewhof http://connexuscommunity.typepad.com/carey_nieuwhof/2009/05/an-open-letter-.html
Obviously you can’t get to know Jerry Falwell’s heart but maybe Jonathan Falwell would do: http://www.jonathanfalwell.com/http%3A__www.jonathanfalwell.com/Blog/Blog.html
Before every decision, before every response to someone…remember “the love the Father has lavished on us.”
