why “bad christian” vol. III - are you a bad christian?

In the switch over to wordpress, I’m taking the liberty of adding a few ‘about’ pages that explain the place. Thus, these are the posts that kind of started to really be instructive about the nature of the community here. So, if you’re looking about information on if you’re a bad Christian or not, or why the site is named what it is, well, then, read on.

I really must give credit where credit is due here. Just Pat and Headless in their comments got the ole’ wheels turning on this one. Many of you have asked, “Brandon, why are you a bad Christian?” or “Why do others think you’re a bad Christian?” Most though are really curious about one thing, “Am I a bad Christian?” Well, our friends down at Worldview Weekend have taken the guess work out of making that determination. Best of all, IT’S FREE!!!

So go ahead, take the bad Christian litmus test right here. But BEFORE YOU DO THAT PLEASE READ THIS POST!!! You’ll be given a number of questions, most of them ridiculous. At the end you’ll be given a read out of your scores. According to Worldview Weekend–AKA the white Christian Male powergroup brigade–you’ll be placed in groups from Strong Biblical Worldview all the way down to Commie bastard.

For all intents and purposes you should ignore these titles, save for one purpose: remember the name of what you’ve been classified as so you can find out if you’re a bad Christian or not.

Here’s what it takes to be a bad Christian:

1. You must be a Christian. I’m not going to tie all sorts of strings to that. You know if you are or aren’t, it’s not rocket science.

Then, find your ranking below.

1. Strong Biblical Worldview - Sorry, Charlie. No bad Christian badge for you.
2. Moderate Biblical Worldview - Nope not quite good…er…bad enough.

3. Secular Humanist Worldview - Congratulations! You’re a bad Christian!
4. Socialist Worldview - Angels rejoice in heaven! Another bad Christian has found their way home!
5. Communist / Marxist Worldview - The badder the better, welcome to the crowd! Another bad Christian.

See, it’s easy really. A simple test, crappily written though it may be, can tell you what you’ve long suspected.

Now, the fun part. To unite. If you’ve taken the test and would like to officially bear the badge “bad Christian” all you need to do is send a simple email to badchristian@badchristian.com. Include your first name (only), and your blog title (or website) (and URL) if you have one, mainly because I really like to meet some of those who have passed the bad Christian litmus test and happily bear the bad Christian badge!

Keep an eye out for the link on the right, it should be coming soon!

His badness,
Brandon

UPDATE - If you’ve read this post, or taken the test, please do me the favor of reading “Why badchristian.com is called badchristian.com.” Then, if you still feel the need to comment about how bad this site is, you may do so, but at least be educated about it.
