For some reason the H. L. Mencken line that pops out in my head the most often was from some review he wrote which said, in part, "Even an English professor could write a better sentance than this." This pretty well sums up my view of Robert K Johnson's Reel Spirituality. As far as I could tell, the only two purposes of the book's 200 pages were: one, to tell Christians that it's ok to see movies and talk about theological implications, and, two, to prove the old adage that in English, there is no noun that cannot be verbed. Don't ask me for illustrations of the latter. It's just too painful to recollect. I should stop shopping the discount aisles of the Christian book store.
