Doug Wilson, on his blog site, has again shown his intolerance for people 
who do not worship in his manner or at his approval:

"Lawn Sprinklers for Jesus
Topic: Chrestomathy

"My wife and I were recently on vacation, and being strangers in a strange 
land, we sought out a place to worship while there. We picked a place that, 
judging by the name, seemed safe enough. But the service started out with a 
thumping worship band playing some up-beat pep rally songs. One of these 
songs had something to do with God's love being 'all around, all around.' 
You would think I could remember all the words to it because they sang them 
about as many times as the Beatles sang that nah-nah-nah part in Hey, Jude. 
But this was not enough. One of the song leaders taught everybody how to 
imitate a lawn sprinkler, spinning in place, one arm straight out and the 
other hand behind the head. So here we were, sitting in the back row of a 
strange church, watching a room full of adults spinning around as though 
they were lawn sprinklers. One of the song leaders, flushed with enthusiasm, 
cried out, 'Who says church isn't fun!' THESE DEAR MISGUIDED PEOPLE THOUGHT 
THEY WERE HONORING GOD THROUGH WHAT THEY WERE DOING EVEN THOUGH (sic) WHAT 
THEY WERE ACTUALLY DOING WAS TEETERING ON THE EDGE OF BLASPHEMY. What does a 
biblical Christian do when confronted with something like this? The 
scriptural answer is plain -- make fun of it" (A Serrated Edge, pp. 70-71).

Apparently, unless the services are conducted the way Doug feels they should 
be, the people are committing blasphemy and should be stopped.

Why is it he feels free to call others intolerant without proof, while at 
the same time he continues to show HIS intolerance?

P.S.  Some of the comments in response to his blog are just as showing of 
intolerance as his blog.
