And it’s bad, bad Leroy Brown
The baddest man in the whole damned town
Badder than old King Kong
And meaner than a junkyard dog

It may be a mangey ol good for nothing mongrel…but…
it’s your mangey good for nothing mongrel right??
One that you treat so terribly bad.
You bad mouth it,
you belittle it,
you kick at it…
but after all, it is yours to beat and berate right?
And well, you just don’t feel right about others kicking it to the curb do you?
So that’s pretty much the sense I got from reading the following article.
It’s an article focusing on the avowed demigod of all things atheistic, Richard Dawkins,
sounding the alarm over the demise of Christianity in Europe.
Could it be the ultimate oxymoron …an atheist troubled over the demise of Christianity!?
But there’s a catch.
“Not so fast,” he says…”Don’t rejoice over the seemingly impending doom of Christianity in
Europe” he exclaims…the open-ended question he offers…
what is it that could fill the void that would be worse…???
Islam.
Dawkins is referring to Islam…
How ironic that one of the most vocal opponents of Christianity would surprisingly
raise concern for something he’s spent his entire professional career demeaning,
despising and belittling—
warning others not to rejoice over what appears to be the demise of his arch nemesis…because
of that which could follow….would be a far more wicked foe…
Interestingly ironic….
Do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind,
that by testing you may discern what is the will of God,
what is good and acceptable and perfect.
Romans 12:2
