Just as dangerous as the post-modern/emergent group is the tele-evangelist. Although the tele-evangelists have been around a little bit longer.
You might be a tele-evangelists if...
1) You have ever had face cramps from all that smiling.
2) You write books like: "Your Best Life Now" or "8 Steps to Create the Life You Want."
3) You 'slay' people at your services.
4) You spent more than $10,000 for a commode.
5) Your last name is Popoff, Van Impe, or Dollar.
6) You have predicted the exact date of Jesus return at least twice.
7) You have been involved in sexual misconduct, drug addictions, financial fraud/embezzelment, or blatant deception but still have "your ministry."
8) You own a private jet, more than one mansion, and at least five BMWs, Mercedes, or Rolls-Royces.
9) You employ 'catchers' for your worship services.
10) You wear more jewelry than Mr. T and all white suits. (For female evangelists: You wear more stuff on your face than is used to paint the local water tower and sound like a man if a viewer closes his/her eyes.)
...You know what is really scary? A lot of the above characteristics could also be in a list of cult leader characteristics!
But you can think on that.

Did you know about this:

If you spent like two or three days, you could probably write a pretty entertaining book about your theological worldview being critical of the non-Christian church.
I would buy it (and read it)!
You could even do little doodles of some of your lists!
Caleb:
Yeah, I knew about that. Those people continue to make my job more difficult!
Brett:
Don't look for a book anytime soon. I'll have to write something "light & fluffy" before any mainline Christian publisher will publish it. (And I'd have to write something heretical for some liberal/secular publisher to publish it.)
