Don't take the bait!

So, those Team Pyro guys are still at it...

And what's worse, it's devolved into berating us emerging church types for not responding in kind. Apparently, Grace's posters and mine below don't really do it for them, focused as the posters are more on what we are for rather than against, on what we're trying to be rather than mocking others for what we (mis)perceive them to be.

Frank, who stopped by here on another thread and even left some nice (mostly!) comments had this to say:

Also, the fact that they got nothin' in reply -- they can't even field a team -- makes me wonder where all the creative types they allegedly minister to are in all this.

Apparently they have better things to do, like ministry.

...

here's my guess -- they can't do it without vulgarity, pornography or blasphemy.

And for the record -- I'd love to eat my words here. I'd love it if someone really, really went through the archives and made some "PyroMedia" posters which went after our many foibles.

Of course this kind of thing isn't any fun when the other guy is saying, "oh gawsh -- that's HILARIOUS!" 

It's snarky, arrogant asininity like that above that really makes me want to forget the whole peacemaker thing and just throw down.
I know, I know... that's the worst possible response to the kind of slander and misrepresentation that daily foists itself off as "discernment" out there on the interwebs...

But if I were to respond to something as ridiculous as this

Chastep

(which I'm not!)...

It might look a little something... like this:

Certainty_3


or...

Pride

But that would just be silly and immature, wouldn't it?

 

I mean, I couldn't expect anyone to see those and CHANGE could I?
No... that would be ridiculous to think something like these could actually get through to the people I'm mocking.

That would probably take a different approach altogether...
