This should be good

Some guys I know are starting a blog, January 1. Flag this one. These guys will tackle provocative issues without fear and without equivocation, but in a way that's a lot more cultured, well-mannered, and respectable than the PyroManiac.

In their introductory post, they say,

We chose the name "faith and practice" because it encompasses all areas of theology, from the systematic to the practical; and also because it serves as a vivid reminder to all of us that true Christianity does not consist of mere theory, but of wholehearted obedience to the truth (cf. John 14:15).

Broken Messenger:: Adding it to my blogroll now before I forget. Thanks for the heads up, Phil.; 1:38 PM, November 22, 2005

art:: I wonder if their logo is a play on the foundationalist theory of knowledge...I wonder what the E would be?; 8:51 PM, November 22, 2005
DeathRowBodine:: Wow Phil,

Are you responsible for those graphics on the FP Blog? I know of 30 person ad agencies with 10 graphic designers that can't pull off the creativity you seem to churn out. What's up with that? Do you have help or is all this a product of one twisted mind?; 9:15 PM, November 22, 2005
Phil Johnson:: The F&P guys did their own graphics.

All the graphics at PyroManiac are indeed the products of one severely twisted mind, however.; 10:09 PM, November 22, 2005

Don't expect me to reply to your comments. If I feel strongly, I might reply in a blog entry. If I have time to waste, I could even post a comment of my own every now and then. (No promises on that.) But don't look for me to mud-wrestle with critics in my own blog-comments.
Say what you like about me; disagree as strongly as you like; beat me up or slap me around verbally with near-total impunity. But keep within the parameters of Christian civility. I'll automatically delete comments with profane or unwholesome words, including abbreviated or otherwise disguised ones.
On-topic comments only. If you have other stuff to say to me, send me an e-mail.
Don't feed the trolls.
Break my rules three times and I'll automatically delete any further comments I see from you.

Phil Johnsonâ€™s problem is that heâ€™s an unreconstructed male. An evolutionary throwback to the stone age of early manhood. Itâ€™s hard to think that far back in time, I know, but according to Richard Dawkins it dates to the Eisenhower era. . . .
"If you want proof positive of what a sexist male chauvinist pig Phil Johnson truly is, he actually thinks that women are capable of speaking for themselves. That women donâ€™t need an air-brushed, PC-sensitized male—if â€œmaleâ€� is the operative word here—to rush in with the smelling salts in case some fainting violet were to swoon at the sight of an old comic book cover. . . .
I assure you that the combined forces of government, the media, and the education establishment are taking coercive measures to weed these Troglodytes out of the general population. But they keep popping up between the cracks like so many dandelions."

What you have [here] is independent Baptist fundamentalism, right down the line, with only a few changes. . . . Go and check up on names like Jerry Falwell, Jerry Vines, John R. Rice and Jack Hyles. You'll understand a lot more about what you're hearing.
