Alot of things that I'd like to say, but as has been made obvious over the past few months - they are to none affect and would be a waste of my time...

Since I like to waste time, if you think that letter is good, great, and full of truth, I would suggest a serious self examination, and reevaluate your thought process. If after much prayer and consideration your the same, fine- but atleast offer God a chance to say "Hey, if I'm wrong, let me be willing to see it. If not, ground me and show me how to help others draw closer to you through this process." Please, please , PLEASE! I beg you.
Love you all.

I think the serpent on the pole analogy applies more to what God used in the past and the worship of "the good ole days". We can make an idol of Southern Gospel quartet music. We can make an idol out of the preachers of the past. We can worship our style of worship or preaching. We can worship standards.

Since TV has never been used by us to evangelize before, I think the brazen serpent metaphor fails to follow. I do believe a worship of what God did yesteryear is more applicable. We certainly have plenty of that in our churches and among our preachers.
