And Evangelicals put other people between themselves and God when they ask other people to pray for them.

Yeppers, but they are careful to say "I ask you" instead of "I pray you." They'd be careful not to use that there "old English type" of words or God would slap 'em silly for being so high-falutin instead using real modern good English speakin'.



"Yo, God..."

That picture pretty much sums up the radical Evangelical approach to salvation. You do the work God. I’ll just sleep and be lazy.

“Yo, God...”

LOL

It is what they do, isn’t it?

Remember that song by Sheryl Crow?

What if God was one of us? Just a slob like one of us?

In my mind, to the protestant, Jesus is like the carnival guy in the box, if you get your coin in his mouth, you get a little “You are saved” card.
