Ale-Aided Blogging

Christianity Today wonders if blogs are A Window to Our Souls. Buried in the article was this little nugget:
Can you imagine Martin Luther hiding in Wartburg Castle, distracted from translating the Bible because "Chuck5" didn't like his post on the virtues of ale-aided exegesis? On second thought, Luther was exactly the kind of personality who might have thrived on the Internet. He wasn't afraid to wield his wit against theological opponents in popular writing.
If Luther had blogged, I would of read him! Can you imagine what the comments section would have been like? Probably more entertaining (and more combative) than wrestling or NASCAR!

  1. I believe he would have thrived on it. He was brilliant, yet humble. He was willing to take on the world yet insecure. He didn't wish for death, but welcomed it. Oh, he would bring it on.
