Le Sabot Post-Moderne

Particularly creepy since they look like they're holding oversized (dramatically, for them) presidential campaign novelty condoms.

Those condoms were deliberately made that size. It's a covert psy ops program to make the Dems feel inadequate.

Somebody really should have popped these guys upside the head though. This is a drum I've been beating since the early 90's. The good news, to me though, is that Evangelicals really do seem to be doing a better job of not dragging the name of Christ through political mud.

I live a rather sheltered life, I know, but it blows my mind that anyone would actually do this other than as some sort of plant. Wait -- I'm NOT saying that I think that these guys are a plant and that pro-Bush evangelicals couldn't possibly be that theologically stupid, but it's just hard for me to get my mind around the idea that they actually are, given what the significance of the gospel really is and how Christians are presumed to *know that.* Much as I hear about how badly co-opted evangelicalism is by conservative politics, in the circles I run in people *don't* confuse the issues in that way, and would *never* represent political victory with the symbol of our salvation.

So while I do believe it, and I've heard enough from other sources not to be utterly surprised by it, it still blows my mind in a certain way that it actually happens (along with saddening me.)

It seems to me though that Evangelicals have come a long way in separating the two. The Evangelical involvement in politics has come of age, and I think the unrealistic expectations of what politics can do (and how it relates to church) have changed a lot. Don't you?

Wow. Where did that picture come from?
