Consider your audience. That's what every good advertiser is told to do when pitching a deodorant, beer or new type of gum. Christians also find it beneficial, when trying to spread the Gospel, to relate to their hearer's interests and background. This is what one priest in Cardiff, UK is trying to do by having a Dr. Who theme night to attract the youth of his congregation (story here). The church, which appeared in an episode of the show, will be the site of a special sermon likening "He Who Sits on the Right" to the famous time traveler. The message will also include props, and perhaps a monster or two.
Sure I see it. "He Who Sits on the Right" is a master of time and space, he regenerated after he died, and he had a lot of companions following him around getting into trouble. I wonder if His tomb was larger on the inside?
You know this really annoys me. We spend so much time influencing writers, directors, and various other entertainment people to create media to distract people from God, and here a guy goes drawing them back again. Paul did this alot, relating the message to unknown Greek gods, and plays. Someone should have sued him for copyright infringement at least.
Feh. I always liked Blake's Seven better anyway.

WWJSS - What would Jesus sonic screwdriver?
I have not posted in a while due to a tecnical difficulty. I know who is responsible and a charming pack of worldlings without love or faith in anything but machines is what they are. That means that I will personally have the chance to teach them all about what time means down here. I can hardly wait.
