Politics: Joe Carter provides seven reasons Rudy Giuliani is Unelectable. Here’s a good one: “Rudy is a philandering jerk — Giuliani began dating his third (and current) wife, Judith Nathan, while still married to his second wife, Donna Hanover. Ms. Hanover found out her marriage was ending when her soon to be ex-husband announced the separation during a press conference. This is enough to lose him the key demographic of bitter ex-wives.”

Prayer: Brian Thornton asks “How Now Shall I Pray?” when he reflects on the news of a friend’s cancer.

Emergent: Gary Shavey at the Resurgence blog provides highlights, lowlights and “what the’s?” from the recent “You Say You Want A Revolution Conference.”

Du Jour: Thabiti Anyabwile risks being called a scrooge when he discusses tipping.

re Emergent: Every time that Brian McLaren gave a message he was reading from the Bible.

I would’ve figured this to be a “what the?” rather than the very first highlight, given McLaren’s track record. Then I saw the first lowlight describing how he mangled the same Scripture, and it all became clear. :-(

One usually thinks of Pharisees when regarding making someone “two-fold more the child of hell”. Apparently, they don’t have the corner on that market.

I’m glad to hear someone else calling Giuliani out. I found it almost comical that just coming off an attempt to impeach Clinton which was tied so closely to his affair that there were no prominent Republicans speaking against Giuliani. Who says American politics aren’t partisan?

(And I apologize if there was one Repub who called him out, I may have missed it.)
