The other day I saw some people that had a shit-poo. Yes, that’s actually the name of a cross breed of dog (shitzu and poodle) -so I’m not cursing. This got me thinking that most of us are denominational mutts when it comes to churches. Most people church shop with no real clue what each denomination means they just go because one serves them better than the other. It’s like choosing between McDonalds or KFC.   

So my question is what kind of church mutt are you?

I’m a method-matic-southern-non-square-ptist.

I was sprinkled into the Methodist church, then my mom went spiritual and dragged me to a charismatic church. Then for most of my life I was raised southern baptist. I worked for a non-denominational church, then a non practicing foursquare. Now I work for a para-church and attend a conservative baptist northwest church.

So what are you? 

I read some shocking news on a prominent evangelical blog that was insinuating that to unite the Christian right many churches were coming together in unity to elect their own Pope! This action is in hopes to make one large evangelical “mother church” that can rule as one. So far the United Methodist, Southern Baptist, and Seventh Day Adventists have come together in agreement.  There’s even word of a pact with Jehovah’s Witnesses and Purpose Driven Churches.

So far they’re calling themselves Churches Reuniting Amongst People. And someone close to sources in the organization has commented about a new Christian Pope ”I think someone like Jerry Falwell in a big hat [and robe], driving around would inspire people.” Even Dobson chimed in on his daily broadcast, “I think this could be what we need to mobilize the right.”

Jerry Falwell the new Pope!?! Now, I’m all for unity, but this sounds crazy or some sort of sign of the end times.

Any thoughts?
