Hysterical!
These revised versions of classic fairy tales, updated to "appeal" to the post-modern reader do an excellent job of *lambasting feminists, environmentalists, and other hyper-sensitive/easily-offended groups.
*Can I still use the word "lambasting" or do lambs find that offensive now?
Here's an excerpt from Little Red Riding Hood:
'The wolf said, "I am happy with who I am and what I am," and leaped out of bed. He grabbed Red Riding Hood in his claws, intent on devouring her. Red Riding Hood screamed, not out of alarm at the wolf's apparent tendency toward crossdressing, but because of his willful invasion of her personal space.
Her screams were heard by a passing woodchopperperson (or log-fuel technician, as he preferred to be called). When he burst into the cottage, he saw the melee and tried to intervene. But as he raised his ax, Red Riding Hood and the wolf both stopped.
"And just what do you think you're doing?" asked Red Riding Hood.
The woodchopper-person blinked and tried to answer, but no words came to him.
"Bursting in here like a Neanderthal, trusting your weapon to do your thinking for you!" she exclaimed. "Sexist! Speciesist! How dare you assume that womyn and wolves can't solve their own problems without a man's help!" '

"Good introductio to Buddhism and not a bad book to hand a Buddhist (or just about anybody in Portland since it seems as if they're all into some quasi-Buddha new-age nonsense.)

First off, this nation is far more secular than Christian. A much better title would be, "Letter to a Psuedo-Christian Nation." Secondly, this author does such a ridiculously bad job with scriptural context you'd think he was debating a cult leader. Well he can go ahead and denounce such bad theology as dispensational end-times theories and modern day practice of antiquated Levitical laws all he wants and he'll have nothing but support from us earnest Christians. If he wants to torch the godless churches that dominate America's landscape I'm more than a little tempted than to hand him some kerosene and a lighter.(less)
