As a Catholic I quite agree with you. Adam and Eve's fall in the Garden of Eden was because of disobedience and pride not because of boredom.
The #1 problem is sin and the only solution to that problem is Jesus.

Schuller is behind the Church Growth/Seeker Sensitive movement.

The poison of the Crystal Cathedral is spreading undetected throughout the Evangelical world.

Actually I think the Arminian super hero might just look like this

I whipped this up a year or so ago, for a friend to use as his "avatar" on another message board. You provided the Arminian version, now here's the Calvinist super-hero....

Hmmmm....I was curious and looked up boredom in scripture. Nobody seems to have been bored. Maybe Schuller longs for the days when a plague of locust was right around the corner or a Babylonian army was coming to carry you off to captivity. It certainly seem to have solved their boredom.

Someone said:

Or Doc Savage. Not quite as droll as Sproul-Yoda, but good. Got a larger version of that?
