let me say, first of all, that it is entirely possible that the theology department has gone too far. (and by that i mean a handful of the theology majors - not the department itself.) our humble excuses, as far as i can surmise/invent, are these:point the first:
studying theology is diametrically opposed to having fun neither in theory nor in practice.
point the second:
most of us are looking forward to at least another five years of graduate work in theology (that's after at least four years at rocky) . . . so we need to have fun with it, lest we lose all interest.
point the third:
if you had three friends who discretely dressed up as roublev's trinity icon for the christmas banquet, and your last name were apostol, wouldn't you be tempted?!
point the fourth:
ross is talented and clearly has way too much time on his hands. imagine what he'd do with that if he weren't touching up photos to turn them into icons! we're really just taking one for the team.
point the fifth:
we want to be the "sexy" department - that was for you, kevin - so controversy is an absolute must.
point the sixth:
apparently, we were just getting started when we mocked bibles for the deaf.
bringing the mystery and scandal back,
for the sake of the Church
and to the glory of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit,
~the dead theologians society
