Men on a Mission Calendars
The dude who created and produced these, Chad Hardy, got ex'd from the church. Said he thought it was a "little harsh" on the news tonight . . . .

I agree. Speaking your beliefs is an action.

Sounds like he made it easy for them. I'm inferring from six years of inactivity and his nonchalant attitude that he didn't care. Still, doesn't anyone else see this as an overreaction of the first order? He made a calendar with some guys with their shirts off for crying out loud. I do understand the need to proscribe the influence of apostates, but this? What am I missing here? This will encourage his repentance?

Don't worry Gidge, the chances that you and Surfah's Bishop or SP read this board is slim. :-)

I suspect that this situation was precipitated by the need for the 3rd.

Maybe they got back there and said what can we do to call the maximum amount of attention to this thing? How can we martyr this guy and reinforce some negative stereotypes about the church? Sometimes discretion is the better part of valor.
