    What the @$&*?  Ed Young Swears to Prove a Point:  Don’t Swear

    Bookmark and Share

    1.  I would ask Ed… Is it necessary to curse in an admonition to other pastors not to curse?  Did he not do that to grab our attention?  Is that not EXACTLY the SAME THING that he accuses pastors who curse of doing? I mean… what the hell?  (There I did it… please don’t do that… it’s not necessary).

    2.  I find it somewhat ironic that Ed Young would get on pastors for doing something because it was ‘cool’.  I think Ed is the epitome of ‘cool’.  That’s kind of his reputation.  No, it IS his reputation.  Over the top cool.  Something’s not right with that cool. 

    Don’t get me wrong, I think Ed’s ok.  I just find it funny that one area he feels ‘very strongly about’ is that of language.

    Anyone else find it ironic?


    This should be fun. Watch this by Ed Young, Jr.



    A couple of ironies here for me... really...

      I was thinking of looking up some of them newspaper websites, but am glad I came here instead. Although glad is not quite the right word… let me just say I needed this after the incessant chatter in the media, and am grateful to you for articulating something many of us are feeling - even from distant shores.  Please come visit my site Yellow Pages Connecticut when you got time.

      I think his creative team dropped the %)(@#$ ball on this video.

      I think we can get sidetracked in this argument if we focus on “which words are bad words” rather than the real issue: reflecting the character and heart of our Savior. JMO.
