I am writing this blog to you live from Starbucks (care of T-Mobile) where at this precise moment I am caught between a rock and a hard place.
The “rock” is sitting to my right — a young man faithfully studying the Acts of the Apostles in his Bible. The “hard place” is to my left — a professional ‘psychobabbleist’ who is (very loudly) leading a client to Hell by telling him that the answers to his problems in life is to “jettison his core belief system” so that he can finally relieve his conscience (which is just a “bubble machine” of chemical reactions), and free his body of the need to be addicted to drugs and booze, thus overcoming his addictive nature.
At this point I am on the verge of hurling myself in between the high priest of psychology and his head-shaking client. Perhaps a better plan would be to pray first and (very conspicuously) discuss the Scriptures with the rock to my right. Maybe I will do both.
