Here’s some great words on celebrity culture and how it’s slowly become a part of the Christian culture.

  4. As I recall, former co-workers Brandon and Wendy Wason were out in California for a visit and had stopped by the office. Brandon had acquired for me a signed book by Chuck Palahniuk as a birthday/get-well gift. The inscription read:

    To Seth:
    Chuck Palahniuk
    Sorry About
    Your Gall
    Bladder!!

    We were thoroughly amused by the inscription and somehow got on the subject of people who get their Bible’s signed and the huge audacity of it. So, I believe the next step, naturally led to me signing one of Brandon’s Bibles with something terrible like “Stop sinning!! ♥Seth.” I can’t remember if Brandon knew I was doing it or just hoped against hope that I was instead signing co-worker Nathan’s Bible instead.

    In any case, to be fair, I decided to sign mine as well. But I wouldn’t sign one to myself. That’s how people get caught in quantum loop paradoxes and I have never been one to mess with theoretical sciences. So, I acted as proxy for Garfield the Cat and I am now the proud owner of a Holman Christian Standard Bible signed by a fictional and not-very-funny cartoon cat.

    The inscription may be read here.
