"Why haven't we been told this before?"

Wow, apparently some studious Anglican bishop scriptorian has discovered some revolutionary ideas about paradise being a temporary state, the literal nature of the resurrection, and Christ's return to earth rather than everyone being caught up into heaven to meet him. Pretty wild stuff. What's next, the idea that families might still remain as families in this "new Earth" of his?!?

So if this is what the scriptures truly say about these things, why aren't there people trying to teach this stuff? Why, indeed, haven't we been told this before?

  1. You know, you're right? We should start teaching something like that. We should have two 19-year-old kids wear white shirts and ties and black name tags on their breast pockets go around and talk to people about this stuff. They should have short haircuts and shiny shoes. Man, that'll get the people to come through the turnstiles!

    Oh, wait...
