Do Not Disavow

Do Not Disavow By: Rick Davis   When Charlemagne established law Salic in barb’rous land, The gospel flourished, and he saw Christ’s praise on every hand.   (“Do you approve his methods now?”) I do not disavow.   King Godfrey took Jerusalem From bloody paynim hands And brought a halt to Musselmen Invading Christian lands.   (“He did some mean things anyhow!”) I do not disavow.   King Richard with his scarlet shield And passant lions ‘bossed Rode forth again unto the field To regain what was lost.   (“His deeds at Acre you allow?”) I do not disavow.   Unto the Germans Luther brought The gospel full restored, And Calvin at Geneva taught The glory of the Lord.   (“The Jews? Servetus? Holy cow!”) I do not disavow.   Stonewall and Lee like knights of old Fought for their native soil, The true and lovely to uphold Against the tyrant’s spoil.   (“Those vile racists broke their vow!”) I do not disavow.   Men

Homework

I have promised many things on this blog, two of which are my thoughts on the next Harry Potter book, and some amateur ruminations on the Federal Vision controversy. Just to let everyone (i.e.- the 3 people that read this blog) know, I haven't forgotten. In the meantime, enjoy this video:

It's so true...

Oh Rick, always the non-extermist. Try using something other than Ad-Homenim.

Psh. We all know you really forgot. You just forgot that you forgot.
So has Mary Beth's car been "mommed" yet? ;-)

Oh yes. I really need to take a little trip to the car wash soon. :P

Rick,

Why don't you ask for clarification instead of making assumptions about what I mean?

Certainly I agree with you about the issues concerning the Resurrection.

As for what "the Dougs" said, I'm not going to touch that with a 39 1/2 foot pole because I don't know what the historical precident is on this issue.

In the second place if you are really going to take issue with about these things why write a satire about what I've said? Instead why don't you do what all good philosophers do and ask questions?

Just some thoughts.

Dale
