Essentially, an online depiction of the confrontational ‘turn or burn’ approach to talking about faith. It usually only drives people away as was demonstrated by the likes of Pastor Terry Jones in Florida or Westboro Baptist Church. I’m personally more of a ‘sacrificial love’ and a ‘love your enemies’ guy. Not to mentioning developing real relationships as opposed to delivering stark ultimatums to strangers. However, when I was younger (and not a Christian at the time), my father-in-law (although not at the time) preached a classic ‘fire and brimstone/hell for sinners’ sermon which left me indignant with rage and disgust. But it got me thinking…

Not heard of planking? Check out this short and amusing little clip from an Aussie news report (I do love the laughter at the end): http://youtu.be/tRHnTFesv7c
Like all internet memes it’s entertaining, surreal and hard to explain why it works. As yet, this cartoon is unpublished. Check out Matthew 7:5.

Baptist Assembly Blackpool (and Royal Wedding) Cartoon
Posted in cartoons, Christianity, Church, Humour with tags assembly, Baptist, Blackpool, Paul, peter, rock on May 6, 2011 by cakeordeathcartoon
It’s a double-header (or double whammy, if your prefer) this week since last week was the annual Baptist Assembly which was held up in Blackpool in the north of England. It started on the same day as that Royal Wedding in Westminster with Wills and Kate (or William and Catherine). ‘Rock’ is a long piece of candy which Blackpool is famous for (as well as the donkeys which are on its beaches). I’m sure Peter must have laughed and laughed and laughed. First published in The Baptist Times on 29/04/11 and 06/05/11.
