Just out of curiosity, have you read any of Doug's writings or had the privilege to hear him speak in person? It's easy to take snippets of what someone has said out of context and then make them seem to be saying something they're not. In fact, some might say that there are many people who use just such a method to interpret the Bible ... @Chad – I’m familiar with these critiques, but don’t necessarily agree with them.

Would you like to put this on EmergentBrethren.org? If so, please shoot me an email and I'll set you up to post. I like the video of Doug's sharing why he doesn't like Christianity. Could the same line of thinking be applied to, "I don't like being Brethren. . ."? It was great to meet you at Annual Conference! Jeff Hey Matt,

It looks like Monday is the front-runner, though with only 51 votes submitted I suppose that could change. @amysgr – If you head to DougPagitt.com and look in the right column, below Doug’s Flickr updates you should see a section titled “Current Poll.” It looks like Monday is the front-runner, though with only 51 votes submitted I suppose that could change.
