From Scotteriology, via Chris Tilling:
A shocking new spiritual gift has been discovered at St Mellitus College and St Paul’s Theological Centre. This gift is the power of the spoken word to put members of a classroom or audience into a powerful and peaceful sleep. Apparently, the gift which is being termed hupnos was unknown before the arrival of their new NT tutor; then during the last semester many began noticing powerful movements of the spirit as they would “come to” after a lecture feeling like they had been in a state somewhere between narcolepsy and a coma.

Chris Tilling is a brave man in more ways than one. Besides this link to a good laugh at his own expense, he courageously lists my humble blog on his theology blogroll. To give you an idea of how out of my depth I am at his blog, he and his fellow commenters joke around in Greek.
While you're there, you may want to have a look at his PopeTarts™ and Popesicles™ post.
I wonder if the Pentecostals have discovered this yet? Did someone tell Pat Robertson?
ReplyDeleteAlso, can we nominate the PopeTarts and Popesicles for the Ship of Fools "12 Days of Kitchmas?"
RB, I expect we'd have to get permission from Chris. As you see, the names are trademarked.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the kind words!!
ReplyDeleteAs regards the Ship of Fools "12 Days of Kitchmas?" .... I am sure I can work out some kind of bulk order deal! :-)
Chris, I owe you.
ReplyDeleteOh that is Rich. Now another blog for me to read!!!
