The best smiley ever - Thank you Martin Foulner

Every now and again, I realize from the brilliant posts of participants here that I'm just missing it. I've been doing this PB thing for a while and think: "Yeah, I've got Reformed Theology down." Then Martin comes along and gets into a theonomy discussion with Tim and Rev. Winzer and points out something completely brilliant and I think: "How could I have been so foolish!"


Martin,

Well...


The match is hard to see at this scale but I give you the Flaming Scot smilie.

I really don't know how I could have missed this need heretofore. Please forgive my sloth in waiting until the obvious need for such a smilie was pointed out.

"The Reformation was a time when men went blind, staggering drunk because they had discovered, in the dusty basement of late medievalism, a whole cellar of 1500-year-old, 200 proof grace—a bottle after bottle of pure distillate of Scripture, one sip of which would convince anyone that God saves us single-handedly. The word of the gospel—after all these centuries of trying to lift yourself into heaven by worrying about the perfection of your own bootstraps—suddenly turned out to be a flat announcement that the saved were home-free before they started. Grace was to be drunk neat: no water, no ice, and certainly no ginger ale." – Robert Farrar Capon

'Tis a strange sight indeed, a Scot burning himself at the stake! But there's no stake! I appreciate his thrift in using petrol rather than the Glenlivet.

Haggis/ A Scottish dish consisting of a mixture of the minced heart, lungs, and liver of a sheep or calf mixed with suet, onions, oatmeal, and seasonings and boiled in the stomach of the slaughtered animal.(I'd not heard of this before)

OK, Rich. In your spare time, could you come up with a sackcloth and ashes smiley? We need balance.
