I have nothing to add to that title. I’m just curious about how this site’s detractors will argue with it.

Actually it’s wet all the time. But only from ‘a certain point of view’.
Thanks Obi Wan Kenobi…
You’re welcome Joe…
I believe this is yet another attempt at accepting the gay community.
Yeah, but are you really saying that the Mother God will get us all wet in the end anyhow?
or
Is Pres Elect Obama wet or dry?
actually, this plainly stated reality is just another attempt at the slippery slope of the ECoD (Ecumenical Church of Deceity-nasty-ness) that leads the emergent rebellion against the Bible which is the very Word of God because it is the cult of liberal anti-theology that will lead us all to good hygiene, a basic sense of being decently dressed, product in men’s hair and trendy eyewear that helps frame the blind eyes that want us all to SlowlyBecomeCatholic while allowing our 8 years olds to flounce off in bikinis as they become painted girls of sodom with no control exercised by their increasingly feminized androgynous “pastor” “fathers” who are all trying to prove their masculinity by talking about sex, saying naughty words, singing contemporary music and getting rid of pews or meeting in movie theatre “churches” while trying to get everyone to really be buddhist-hindu-rosicrucian masons who will take away our 1st amendment rights and make us kill our babies, eat small children, forcibly work in gay porn and eat things like quiche and poached eggs at….BRUNCH!!!!
well, technically, water is only wet if it is in its liquid form.
Since it can take on the form of steam (which could have wet-like qualities) and ice (which can be fairly dry, actually), this statement is incomplete and will require further systematic analysis to before it can be stated as such.
Preferably by someone who lived 450 years ago and is fairly young of age.
Using the word “wet” in such a broad and generic sense is misleading and descriptively ecumenical. Let us be more specific, do you mean:
awash, bathed, doused, drenched, dripping, saturated, soaked, soaking, sodden, soggy, soppy, soused, washed, watered, waterlogged, watery, deluged, drowned, flooded, inundated, overflowed; submerged, swamped; hydrated; dipped, dunked, splashed; aqueous; steeped; flushed, irrigated, laved, rinsed, sluiced; clammy, damp, dank, humid, or moist?
Please, Brendt, we do not use the word “wet” to describe water, we use the phrase “agent of salvidic immersion” to differentiate ourselves from the heathen. It would be good to remember that gay men shower in water that is “wet”.
As long as you immerse and not sprinkle, who cares?
Brendt, are you sure that when you say ‘water is wet’ you are not really saying that Chris L is really Chris P? (that Chris P.)
I know of people who drowned in water. To just claim that water is wet and not warn of the danger of drowning is irresponsible.
Thank you, Eugene. You are an aquatic prophet!
Brendt,
I disagree with you. I have no proof that water is not wet, but I am confident in my belief that it is not. I know it is in Scripture. Living Water, John 4 & 7. How can water be wet when it is living? How can it be living? Heretic.

PS–Still, on Yoda, dibs I have.
water is “often” wet
spoken like a true emergent
Good point, Eugene.
It is not enough to just give a cup of cold water. One must also warn the recipient that this may overwhelm you.
I am flabberblasted that I might have misread “water is wet” for “water is often wet”. My sincere apologies for misreading Brendt.
If he did write “water is often wet”, this makes ALOT more sense now, and I apologize for bringing in the danger of drowning when it was undeserved. This language actually smells more like an allusion to Waktcéxi / Waktcéxism or some such thing (http://hotcakencyclopedia.com/ho.Waterspirits.html).
This clarifies my concerns and raises them up a notch, as this view is much more pervasive and popular in Christianity than baptismal drowning of old, but in many ways just the same.
LOL
I do not subscribe to Brendt’s modern language. I prefer “water is oft wet”.
Eugene,
You clearly read only what you wanted to see to further your agenda.
So far, your comment #9 is by far the best in this string of comments, even if it did reveal your selective reading style.
water
wet
often
hhmmmmmmmmm….
Nice, Rick.
I often use oft in my poetry.
It’s half the syllables and sounds more poetic.
We at the front lines here at Firestation
Christian Research Net, Mudslinger believe that common sense dictates that we should be flabbergasted that the CHURCH NEEDS TO WAKE UP about water BEING WET. I tell you men and women in a missive that I will be writing later that water IS WET! IT IS!!!First, I intend to create a few webpages called Extreme Wet Water, Fighting for the wet water, Wet Water Central, and
SliceDrips of Water.This is the Viet Nam of Liquid. Hold the Line! Contend for the wetness!
Maybe we can use the water to put out some teams that play with pyro type stuff?
Yes, but if that water is lukewarm as today’s emergent, seeker-sensitive, neo-liberal, post-gay, ultra-suede church is, God will spit it out of His mouth!
Or if the water stays home while hydrogen goes out to work that water must be a coward who doesn’t really love his little two’s.
Man I really can’t wait from someone to come out with a “Water is often Wet” study guide. These complex statements really confuse me and I need someone else to explain their experience with water before I can really grasp the nuisance of water. Therefore allowing me to really enter into relationship with water. Albeit from their perspective, based on their experience, but nonetheless I can claim I’ve truly experienced water because they told me how I should do it. Then of course I can then blog all about how everyone else doesn’t really know about water. I will quote pages upon pages about how so and so was the real expert on water.
Let us not forget the five solas of water:
1. Sola wetness
2. Sola liquidity
3. Sola fluidity
4. Sola iceness
5. Sola gasousness

* Do not allow any comment in this class.
I don’t believe in water.
Moisture is the essence of wetness.
It is incumbent upon the one who believes water is wet to prove it is not.
I just re-read my statement and realized that, in an effort to be clever, I just made one of the stupidist comments of my life.
Oh well.
Not all of us can be as clever and humble as Rick.
“I just re-read my statement and realized that, in an effort to be clever, I just made one of the stupidist comments of my life.”
Quite a menu.
Water is overrated
Water dissolving…and water removing
There is water at the bottom of the ocean
Carry the water at the bottom of the ocean
Remove the water at the bottom of the ocean!
Name the source…
Talking Heads.
Thanks for playing, Rick.
We have a nice gift for you at the door.
“Once In A Lifetime” by Talking Heads.
(Same as it ever was)
Water is beyond gender, yet demands to be called “she”.
*screams and begins banging head off the table*
Just as water seeks the lowest place, so Jesus, the Living Water, seeks and finds me and saturates me in my low estate.
are you sure we’re talking about the same water?
To be sure there is water, and a water, and then there is water.
This must be discerned before we can even speak of wetness.
People,
did anyone else see that Jerry has renounced water in #26?
He is an a-Aqua-thist.
Same as it ever was.
#40 LOL !!
I can’t ruach I am laughing so hard
I think I might Barth
And again I say, do it in the John.
OK – new policy… you may only use the same joke in three distinct threads… after using the same joke in the third unique thread you must refrain from using it until another 17,493 unique threads have completed their threadless…
Are you going to Neil to Barth in the John.
First time…can’t wait to use the other 2.
just don’t do it near the jerry-can.
