| The FV's Yoko Ono?
This in from the Federal Schism blog, commenting on the De Regno Christi FV discussion: Quote:
I note this because it tells me that, in addition to being downright nasty to some of the participants in this so-called “conversation,” James Jordan appears somewhat bent and quite a bit unstable, which leads me to observe that we should not apply “Godfather” status to him. Rather, I suggest that we think of him as Federal Vision’s Yoko Ono — you know, the twisted sister who threw a fly in the Beatles’ ointment and ultimately forced them to breakup. I suggest this because just as John Lennon attributed his (late) creativity to Yoko Ono despite her tin ear, shrill vocals, and hostile demeanor, so the Federal Visionists appear happy to own James Jordan as their creative genius despite his mean-spirited and utterly vacuous comments.
However, unlike the Beatles who chose to dissolve rather than let Yoko call the shots, I suspect that the Federal Visionists will refuse to throw Jordan overboard, which will result in their continued marginalization because the man appears resolved to discredit the “movement” he godfathered with his incredibly stupid comments. It’s just my hunch; I could be wrong. But if I’m not, then as Paul McCartney said, “Let It Be.”
