Christian Costume Ideas and Butt Sin (aka hilarious links)
 
I just laughed till I cried. Twice.

A friend shared this article on facebook: Costume Ideas for the Halloween Festival And DH and I died laughing. That article links to another one by the same person called Butt Sin. I clicked, and we died again.

I had to share these with y'all, especially those of us who are more familiar with the more conservative side of the faith. Enjoy.

Does anyone know anything about Matthew Pierce? He doesn't have an "about me" on his blog. I can tell he was raised in a very conservative, probably legalistic, homeschooling family but beyond that . . . ?????

I didn't post it on FB because . . . I just wasn't sure who could laugh at it and who couldn't. I think it's good to laugh at ourselves once in awhile. I wasn't raised in a conservative Christian culture so I didn't want to come across as laughing AT people who are that way, kwim? But I did laugh really hard, it was super funny!

And it is funny how we each can get wrapped up in whatever it is we think we NEED to do, under whatever label it falls. I think an AP mommy one would be funny, about some of the ridiculous things we did with our first AP baby in order not to lose our AP card. Or something funny about the vegan police, the crunchy police, the unschooling police (oh my goodness, I had to leave all the unschooling FB groups because of all the bickering about what is and is not unschooling! :doh)

Yeah I can't tell if his message is how damaging fundies are thru humor or if he believes it but can laugh at it too. I just read his short book "homeschool sex machine. .."
He told a story of a purity conference where he was the only boy who wouldn't go forward to make a purity pledge josh Harris style -he hinted that dating wasn't the devil and that's actually how you meet and get married. But his book was a bunch of personal stories without coming out with it plainly. His bio says he home schools his older daughter (he has 2).
I did get the feeling after reading he probably doesn't subscribe to the fundy homeschooling circles -but still his true feelings are vague

Re: Christian Costume Ideas and Butt Sin (aka hilarious links)
 
It is kind of ambiguous. He does make fun of lots of famous non-fundy Christians - Joel Osteen, for example. He came across to me as more of a 'let's all laugh at ourselves, because we're all ridiculous sometimes' type.
Even the butt sin post seemed more like his point was 'why is this a thing' than 'fundies are dangerous.' I didn't read the book though.

I didn't post it on fb either. And I find posts making fun of ap or crunchy things usually funny too. We all go overboard or are hypocritical sometimes, so why not laugh about it? But not everyone feels that way.
