Top Ten Church Errors of the Twentieth Century

10. Allowing radio evangelists on the air without conducting heresy inquisitions.
9. Allowing television evangelists on the air without regulating their hair stylists.
8. Allowing society to leap ahead of the church by requiring proficiency examinations for doctors and lawyers but not requiring competency testing for the salaried clergy.
7. Abolishing the requirement that women wear hats and gloves to church, because it led to today’s preferences for shorts, jeans and t-shirts among everyone at every event in our lives.
6. Attacking long hair on men while posting pictures of Jesus with hair longer than any rock stars’.
5. The church continues to use pews instead of Lazy Boy rocking recliners with built in cupholders.
4. The church has not figured out that coffee and sodas maintain mental alertness better than communion crackers and grape juice.
3. The church has become more like a resthome for believers instead of a hospital for sinners.
2. Funding evangelism as an equal priority with the lawn care budget.
1. Encouraging people to come as they are but allowing them to leave the same way.
