I, geekrevThe closest you want to get to looking inside the mind of Shawn Coons.

* in about 25 words each, answer the following five questions;
* tag five presbyterian bloggers and send them a note to let them know they were tagged;
* be sure to link or send a trackback to this post;

1. What is your earliest memory of being distinctly Presbyterian?

Being the only one to vote “no” in an annual congregational meeting just to be a difficult teenager.

2. On what issue/question should the PC(USA) spend LESS energy and time?

Homosexulaity.  It’s past time to admit God has no problem with two people who are in love no matter what sex they are, and move on.

3. On what issue/question should the PC(USA) spend MORE energy and time?

The sin of greed and over-consumption.  While millions have no home how many Presbyterians own two?

4. If you could have the PC(USA) focus on one passage of scripture for an entire year, what would it be?

Jeremiah 29:4-7.  God’s command to the Israelites in exile to give up some of their old ways and adapt to and embrace the world around them.

5. If the PC(USA) were an animal what would it be and why?

A deer that used to live in the country but has had the city grow around it and now is struggling to adapt and survive.

Here is who I tag, knowing that Presbyblogging is so incestuous that half of them have probably been tagged already: Discipline for Justice, A Church for Starving Artists, A Wee Blether, Mark Time, Quotidian Grace.
