This new political ad makes me laugh



This funny advertisement has hit the air in Canada during this year's pretty lame, Stanley Cup Playoffs

Job's friends and critics

I would not claim to be a specific scholar in regard to the book of Job, but I did reference this text in my scholarly British (MPhil-PhD theses) research on theodicy, the problem of evil the nature of God and humanity, free will/determinism.

This satire has merit as the biblical critics of Job showed similar theological and philosophical naivety as would many (but not all) first-year bible school and/or seminary students.

A key is to have a reasonable, correct, biblical understanding of God's nature and human nature, and the Reformed tradition is useful here...

On a personal note, for me, it is usually the acquaintances and/or casual friends that provide the worst advice as they know me less well than good friends.
The landfill also features lesser valued recycling...Facebook
