Postmodern Funnies


I found this picture here.

If you're "up" on the emerging, postmodern thing, then this should make you laugh or smile or at minimum smirk.

How do you get candle wax out of carpet??????? Interesting... I kind a wish they did have a mag like that. It would be totally postmodern to make fun of our own trappings! Liked your comments on The Burning Question blog... I would like to hear more when you have more time. Question: Yes, Jesus is the way, and the early church had a closer, physical connection with him (either with Jesus personally, or with His eyewitnesses) - the challenge, I guess, is how do we (generations removed from actual, physical expereince with Jesus) have a REAL relationship with Him? By REAL, I mean experience? Is it head knowledge (faith)? Is it emotion (feelings)? Is it through the natural world (creation)? Is it through people and communities (church)? Prayer (conversation-one way)? Scriptures (reading)? How do you REALLY experience an "invisible" God? All of these devices are mere shadows compared to the REAL Him, aren't they? Or maybe a better question is: Can we?

So I have been doing this HUGE study on the postmodern, emergent, vintage, I love Jesus but hate the church, movement... Trying to make sense of it all, since I actually fit into the catergory-in what "experts" describe it to be. I find that most children of the baby boom gernation... us are trying to exploit the freedom we have in Jesus-within boundries... Not like the hippy exploitation of freedom, but more like I know who I am in Christ and I want to be all I am able to be...
There is a definate movement in the spiritual. People in this day want what the disciples experienced and not what there parents did.
Anyway... I thought this magazine was- RANDOM... not that I will "judge the book by its cover" but none the less... RANDOM and Interesting.
