I guess we are in agreement then, amazing what kinds of great ideas/interactions are lost in this medium.

Post Christianity?
Wow... that is quite a statement about something that is hard to define with any finality.
Deeming a church type as post Christian seems to be defining it with quite a bit of finality.
What makes the emergent church "Post Christian"

That they have moved beyond the atypical, historical view of Christianity and have become more of a "relevant" church that is more about the individual than about Christ. A convenient Chrsistianity, if you will.

That says a lot in a nutshell.
No where does Christ say our walk with him will necessarily be convenient, quite the opposite is the truth of the matter!

Re: Laodicea Had A Warning
Christianity and things convenient would seem to be, at the least, incompatible. Taking up one's cross and dying daily sure is not convenient.
