OK, so recently (last month or so), John Piper spoke at a Passion07 conference and said (gasp!) that God “kicks our ass” (link). Soon afterwards, he apologized for it. Man, why did you have to do that, John? Is it really a “bad” word? If you meant “donkey” instead of “butt,” would you have apologized? It’s not about being “hip or cool,” John but about being real. If you really meant “ass,” then say it. God’s not going to kick you or anyone else out of heaven for saying “ass.” Stop trying to bend over backwards for the ultraconservative and take it like a man. Don’t take it up the ass just because some people (probably those not there) got offended. There’s nothing wrong with offending people, especially others who call themselves “Christian.” It keeps them humble.
