What Christianity Could Be

I'm not a Christian anymore. I spend much more time with the Gospel of Thomas than I do with the canonical gospels.

But I found this recent Radio Open Source program (streaming audio) with Garry Wills to be very interesting.

It reminded me of the challenging—and radical (radical from radix or root)—Christianity I found in the life of Rev. Jon Nelson and in the writings of John Yoder (The Politics of Jesus) in the '80s. We could do with much more of that Christianity and much less of the Nationalism wrapped in the Cross that passes for Jesus these days.

Some things to think about while washing the chocolate bunnies down with peeps.
