It's funny the reactions I get from church folk when I mention pomo and emergent. I carpool to school w/a good Conservative Baptist guy and you should have seen him weird out and get all twitchy when I said, "I want to start a church for post-moderns." I thought that was a pretty harmless statement, but he about passed a large-print KJV hardback in my front seat. After awhile he calmed down and now we're friends again. There's alot of misinformation out there about 'the emerging church' from what I can tell, although I can't comment either way on your website. You recommended it to me recently but I haven't had a chance to look at it yet. I bookmarked it though.

I really agree with a lot of the post modern concepts, but my problem up until now (you may be shifting the tide here!) is that is most of the post moderns that I have come in contact with personally are soooo opinionated and arrogant that it totally turns me off.

I am a big believer in the idea that there is more than one way to do just about everything, so when I come across anyone that seems to think that their way is the only right way, well, I get "peeved"!
