I don't think he's a positive figure, Dan. His art is all about gimmicks and dishonesty. It does show ability, IMO, but not used as the Lord would have wished, also IMO.
Yes, it's predictable that the LA Times would go after a "Christian" artist, but in this case the artist provides a sitting duck type of target.
There must be plenty of honest Christian artists out there, just not using their Christianity as a sales tool.
And you think that on the basis of an article in the L.A. Times.
I am not *much* exaggerating when I say that, if the LA Times printed an article making the the breathless claim that water was "powerful wet stuff," I'd feel the need to walk over to a tap, to see if something had changed.
