Christian Carnival 282 is up at Tiffany’s Fathom Deep. My post on theological words that get overused (and you can even find comments over at Theologica as people come up with more oft-(ab)used words. Posts that caught my eye are as follows:
- Annoying Christian Cliches is in the same vein as my own post.
- Christians are domestic terrorists.
- Obama on Muslim and Christian Nations.
- The Top Ten most influential authors
- And this wasn’t in the Carnival but it annoyed me enough that it should’ve been so that I could link to it: Don’t Take Your iPod to Church where he decries electronic Bibles and admits that he may be overshooting his point. I’d say. The man has apparently never been in a situation where his study Bible is one version (NASB) the congreation is using another version (KJV) and it is in Spanish (Reina Valera). You’ll be reaching for your electronic Bible real quick then!
Past Christian Carnivals can be found right here on the Bible Archive.

Hey, how did the Christian Carnival thing start? Did you initiate it?
Nope! The first carnival was introduced in January 2004 when Godblogger Nick Queen wanted to collect posts from Christian bloggers across the internet to generate interaction and blogspotting. The vision was to have a different Christian blogger host it per week and post up the articles on each Wednesday. The First Time I hosted it was in January 2005 with the Jedi Edition.
Nick Queen though, has long allowed the Carnival to be directed by others, so today Jeremy Pierce does a lot of the scheduling nowadays and you can see some of that info at the google groups or his hosting schedule.
Ah. Thanks.
