Soulforce is Here
Alright Alli, you win the first post award on this one! Alli also has some pictures up of the bus, so be sure to check out that link.
UPDATE: According to the authorities, some of the protesters were arrested.
Supposedly they marched onto campus across "the Lawn" (not sure which one) with a big banner demanding the College sign a statement supporting / un-condemning gays, and they were arrested for criminal trespassing. Earlier, the College administration had lunch w/ the protesters. The folks arrested are spending the night in the Dade County jail.
So bizarre. I hope some students got some pictures of the goings on.
UPDATE X2:
The Times Free Press has a story w/ audio clips up about the Soulforce Equality Ride visit to Covenant.

Thanks for the update.
By the way got the book in the mail. Thanks for the CD's I'm enjoying 'em.

It pays to take a camera everywhere!

And a few of them have been arrested. Let us pause for a moment of shock and awe.

I think they were doing a short walkathon at the Riverwalk a couple of weeks ago.
Maybe that was a walkthrough to prepare for Covenant.

Channel 9 is covering the story.

Those news channels have really ugly websites.

-How was it for you?
-Pretty good. We arrested tresspassers attempting to preach heresy. How was it for you?
-Wonderful. We succeeded in our non-violent resistence to the homophobic clergy. Spent a night in jail to prove our dedication!
-And we proved willing to endure the persecution of the liberal media!
-Still feeling good about yourself?
-Oh, definitely. You?
-Multiple times over. You can't beat that self-pleasuring glow, you know?
-Oh, yes!

So, would that be "enemies with benefits?"
As Woody Allen said, "Don't mock masturbation. It's sex with someone I love."
