Brother Micah

I'm sure everyone has heard about Brother Micah, his rants, and the trouble that he was causing at various places around campus. I never actually saw him in person, but from what I hear he basically damned everyone around him to hell. He called all the girls whores and the guys were all doomed to burn for eternity because they were perpetual sinners outside the grace of God. This pissed a lot of people off. I heard countless conversations over the course of three or four days in which people were debating his message and his methods of delivering it. If I hadn't recently found that Brother Micah seemingly makes money by working up a crowd into a fever pitch of anger, and then suing the first person to lay a hand on him, I would think that Brother Micah might have been a rather effective evangelist. Obviously he takes a generally dim outlook on the youth of the world, but he got people talking about something that isn't generally discussed outside of certain situations: God and religion. People like Brother Micah are catalysts for change, whether they mean to or not. I would almost guarantee that God was mentioned more in the three days that he was on campus than the subject had been talked about all year. It got me talking, and I'm relatively hesitant to break into a theological discussion outside the walls of church. He's a con artist and, I assert, a raging lunatic, but he got me thinking. Maybe that's the purpose he serves on this earth.

Much Love,
