"You Max Lucado reading moron!"

I met a someone in Starbucks who strongly recommended looking up Kenneth Copeland Ministries and happily shared that he is part of a virtual church.  There are two things wrong with that and it ain't being in a Starbucks, oh and they can make me implode with sinful thoughts and feelings.  And back into the cage I go...  The following is a quote from Kevin De Young's blog that I just came across:
A second mark of crusty Christians is approachability, as in, not having any. There is a sizing up-ness that makes some theological types unnecessarily prickly. They are bright and opinionated and quickly analytical. As a result, knowingly or unknowingly, they emit a vibe which communicates something between “You Max Lucado reading moron!” and “I wish R.C. Sproul were here to teach you a thing or two!” Crusty Christians are hard to be around. They are intimidating instead of engaging and growling instead of gracious. They are too willing to share their opinions on everything and unable to put any doctrine in any category not marked “absolutely essential.”
oops.
