Online Sid had some fun with my Pacific Viewpoint TV screen-shot. Apparently my question to MP Paul Hutchison on Pacific Viewpoint was so powerful you could see the hadouken punch I hurled at him (or chi blast as my kids tell me the correct term is) when you freeze-framed the video.
Classic!

A common objection to belief in the God of the Bible is that a good, kind, and loving deity would never command the wholesale slaughter of nations. In the tradition of his popular Is God a Moral Monster?, Paul Copan teams up with Matthew Flannagan to tackle some of the most confusing and uncomfortable passages of Scripture. Together they help the Christian and nonbeliever alike understand the biblical, theological, philosophical, and ethical implications of Old Testament warfare passages.
Today's New Atheists proclaim themselves our culture's party of reason. It is a claim they cannot sustain. Reason is the New Atheists' weakness, not their strength and in fact, the Christian faith is a far better place to look for True Reason. Making their case accessible to the first-time inquirer as well as the serious student, this top-flight team of writers presents a sound defense and a strong introduction to the true reason uniquely found in Christianity.
The book begins by examining foundational philosophical approaches to the Bible as well as the methodological challenges those philosophies create for interpreting the Bible. It then addresses textual and historical challenges and how to deal with them. Finally it looks at ethical, scientific, and theological challenges demonstrating the Bible's moral integrity in relationship to contemporary moral emphases.
Many philosophers have considered the strengths and weaknesses of a virtue-centered approach to moral theory. Much less attention has been given to how such an approach bears on issues in applied ethics. The essays in this volume apply a virtue-centered perspective to a variety of contemporary moral issues.
The challenge of a seemingly genocidal God who commands ruthless warfare has bewildered Bible readers for generations. A range of expert contributors engage in a multidisciplinary approach that considers this issue from a variety of perspectives: biblical, ethical, philosophical and theological.
The nineteen essays here raise classical philosophical questions in fresh ways, address contemporary challenges for the church, and will deepen the thinking of the next generation of apologists. Packed with dynamic topical discussions and informed by the latest scholarship.
While New Atheists like Richard Dawkins, Sam Harris, and others proclaim loudly their rationality, clear thinking, and incontrovertible scientific arguments, others are beginning to wonder how genuinely rational they are. Have they proved anything? Have they argued convincingly? Have they pinpointed any real challenges to the credibility of Christian faith?
LOL … thanks for the link back! 😀
I knew I talked with my hands but I had no idea how much I did or the weird hand shapes and positions I made until I took the screen-shots off the video footage.

LOL! Street Fighter FTW!
A charismatic Madeline, No?!
HERE IT IS! “A Renewed Call to Truth, Prudence, and Protection of the Poor” ~ An Evangelical Examination of the Theology, Science, and Economics of Global Warming!
I always thought executing a Hadoken needed two hands. That looks more like Dan’s version.
“I always thought executing a Hadoken needed two hands.”
Yes but Madeline can punch with one arm tied behind her back.
Hadoken punch? More like a slap on the wrist. I do not fear you.
Madeleine Off Camera…
Madeleine fancies herself a news reporter with a mean hand okay punch (or whatever), but here’s what she’s really like off camera. Had to have a hair color change and a move after this one….
Nice edit, if it’s one handed it also could be a Dragon Ball version. LOL!
What could be the other gestures that we could see, pause and edit to make more action pack photo!
