My head still hurts.
Ouchies. Can we dispense with incarnational Christology entirely, and go directly to the apocalypse, do not pass go, do not collect your get-out-of-hell-free card? Because my [disbelieved-in deity], these guys make this much more freakin' complicated than it needs to be.

Axe-murderingly bonkers.
