Lots of much ado about nothing, a lot of the time, and chatter incessantly about a lot of trivia. And a lot of "Lutheran-oneupmanship" going on constantly, with a very healthy dose of fundamentally bad thinking and analysis going on. Anyone who gets all googley-eyed about wearing pink/rose vestments or who gets red in the face at the thought of those who wear them: all of them need to get a life! I have a good friend who shall, for his own protection remain nameless, who will frequently exclaim when aware of such blogosphere tempests: "This makes me want to stop being a Christian." I am led to the profound question: "Who cares?!"" But seriously, how do we get from "rose" to "pink" and why is rose or pink a color of joy? These are the mysteries that keep me up at night. At least you guys aren't putting up tabernacles. Does Eckardt wear pink too? I'm getting confused. This is precisely why I stopped, several months ago, following most blogs.
