2 guaranteed steps to growing an active Christian blog.

1. Instead of “posts” and “comments,” have “declarations” and “signatures.”

2. Always post corresponding “counter-declarations” for those who can’t “justify” “signing” your original “declarations.”

    Or post something heretical. A watch-blog would link to you and BAM mega-hits, mega-comments. Can’t fail.

      Or post something anti-heretical teaching and make sure the group you are talking about see’s it and their fan boys will definitly roam your site a bit :P

    That’s what I’ve been missing. Thanks for the advice.

    You could also begin every post with “Boycott”. That tends to work well, too.

    “Wow.” That’s a “lot” of “quotation” marks.

    I love the liberal use of quotation marks. :) If you’re not “careful” we’re going to start “counting” them as “words.” ;)

    Agreed. The use of quotation marks is breathtaking.

    Other ways to build traffic:

    1. Take potshots at high-profile pastors
    2. Act like kind of a D.B. and throw other Christians under the bus
    3. Cuss
    4. Repeat

    I personally think we need AT LEAST 17 or 25 more articles about the Manhattan Declaration. There is just not nearly enough being said about that.

    also: http://unnecessaryquotations.com , but this post is not a case thereof.

    Heresy, boycott, potshots, cuss? I guess I’ll just stay unknown…

    LOLOLOL. Dude. YES!

    And don’t forget #3: Be insufferably pompous.

    #4 allow for filibusters by allowing only one person to type a comment at a time.

    Abraham seems to relish employing the oblique post. I wouldn’t pop a bolt persuing understanding.

    I saw a blog the other day with “remonstrance.” Nice.
