You say syncretic, I say sincretic, let's call the whole thing off
From a post dated October 14, 2005, but timely as ever as David Beckham and Victoria Beckham prepare to arrive in El-Lay:
I asserted that pop-Kabbalah is the new Scientology: a pseudo-religion scam designed to suck money out of people, especially famous ones. Gwen argued that pop-Kabbalah wasn’t as bad because it was at least rooted in a legitimate religious tradition. “Oh yeah?” I countered, “then what about Jews for Jesus? That’s rooted in two legitimate religious traditions!”
In other news, one of the evidences that the LDS church is the true church (see 3 Nephi 27:8, [3 Nephi tags] noting that the Mormons aren't the only ones who buttress claims with their own authority) has been added as a comment to my MySpace blog.
But if you REALLY want to see a religious war, look at what happened when Mitch Wagner claimed that the iPhone was NOT the most wonderful device in the universe.
Keep your Treo you wouldn't understand... an I phone is just too easy for you
You're not excited that all the different things (camera, phone, ipod) come in ONE small device now. I guess you're one of those who'll be more excited about news like Britney Spears walking aroudn (sic) without panties. Please quit writing such articles.
I didn't expect a Media 1.0 magazine like InformationWeek to understand the allure of the iPhone, and this article proved my point.
Sounds like you don't have Cingular and can't get out of your contract. Boo Hoo. Go home and watch your B&W 13 inch tv.
The people quoted above are now tearing out their Cisco routers and refusing to stay in Teledex-serviced hotels.
