love does NOT win (not without a fight, anyway)

People ask me why I get so pissed off about Rob Bell. I’m not sure I have a good answer to that question . . .but I really like this particular post. Especially the guy he quotes towards the bottom (here’s the whole article if you’re feeling ambitious)

Seriously, the more people try to convince me that I ought to go with the crowd and embrace the Gospel according to Rob, the harder it is for me to accept it. I’ve been asked, “how can you hate a brother in Christ?” to which I struggle to respond . . . but I truly don’t hate the man himself. How can I? I don’t even know him. But, as my always-l0ok-on-the-bright-side friend Kim pointed out, it’s not so much that I hate Rob Bell, but that I love truth, and this causes me to hate anything that sets itself up against the knowledge of God (2 Corinthians 10:5, TNIV).

And because I’m so frustrated by the whole Stepford-esque nature of the “love wins” thing, here’s the bumper sticker i came up with. I’m still trying to figure out a better counter-slogan, but for now, this is all I have:
