Posting to a blog requires discipline. Nuff said.
Here’s what I’ve missed while I was away.
But my favorite story of late has been about Pat Robertson.
Religious broadcaster Pat Robertson says he has leg-pressed 2,000 pounds.
As if this guy doesn’t already have credibility issues, he’s claiming to have lifted a ton with his legs. I feel a little bad about not believing that God may very well have worked a miracle with this. But I have to admit that this guy has credibility issues long before I got to him.
A recent AOL poll shows that 90% of the folks asked do not believe him. I was not shocked at those figures, and I doubt you are. If Pat Robertson told me that my hair was on fire, I would get a second opinion before I even considered extinguishing my scalp.
So what’s the point?
Christians, particularly Christian leaders, have a moral and ethical obligation to be credible. This story, though it damages the credibility of Christians everywhere, is a call for us all to seek truth in all that we do. And to focus on the things of importance.
Lesson learned.
