The Death of Outrage

I haven't read the book, but the title sure is fitting. I don't have to go looking for images like the one below, they are put in front of me routinely (this one is an ad off the Dayton street map). Does it outrage you? Probably not. We're all so used to seeing stuff like this, our sense of outrage is burned out. For some folks, nothing can fire them up anymore. For others, the unconstitutional actions of our government get their goat, and it should. Even though this Dayton seminary doesn't run off our tax dollars (at least to my knowledge), it does bring discredit to the name of Christ and undermines the gospel. No matter how prevalent this situation is, it seems like we should still get at least a little "imprecatory".
