I never listened to all the political leaders political speaches. I can't believe the reaction to them, how folk were bowled over, how they were convinced. I don't know about you but I just here rhetoric that is all very good, because it states all the things we want, but I see no evidence at all that they will ever do anything about it for real. They believe their own propaganda.
that's a phrase a lecturer used quite a bit about Hitler and I see it in lots of things. Even in the church we begin believing our own propaganda: freindly, welcoming, modern, good singers etc.
And all those gimmicks the leaders use: no auto cues, no jokes. Can they not see that we can see they are all groomed, and the idea of being convinced by a leader who can remember great chuncks of a speech. It's all good fun watching them. I just hope we all just let them beleive we take them at face value and hope they never realise we can see exactly what is going on and what they are trying to do.
Shallow, shallow, shallow.
Now let's turn to the church. And we cna probably say much of the same stuff.
Where are we different?
