Independence Day Diversions

2008 July 4

Pastor Benjamin Harju reports on a Lutheran church (albeit not LCMS, ELCA, or WELS) distributing consecrated Goldfish crackers during the communion.

Former parishioner and now fellow pastor David Juhl revises some advice on praying for pastors.

Pastor Juhl also reproduces an ultra-brief history of how Lutherans came to adopt a Roman Catholic lectionary from the 1960s.

National Review looks at how Obama is playing the race card. [Anybody remember that great Simpsons episode when Homer said to his attorney, "Play the race card! Play it!"?]

Google releases an iPhone-optimized Google Talk site.

Finally, the General wonders why Herman and Black Jack are racists.
