15 ways to know you are a Theology Nerd



I'm a theology nerd, I can't help it. I once took Recovering Biblical Manhood and Womanhood as my light, fun reading for a week at the beach. Theology nerds are a unique brand of people, and being one myself and knowing others like me, I have come across some indicators as to how to know if you or someone you know fits this description:

1. Your first association with the word "election" isn't political.

2. CS, JI, RC, AW, AW, JP, FF, JC, NT, and BB are all trigger associations with last names in your head. (Yes, AW is listed twice on purpose, for those of you who aren't theology nerds)

3. You know the difference between James Boice and James Boyce.

4. In your mind, Pink isn't first and foremost a reference to a color or clothing line.

5. Your type "in" into your phone and "Infralapsarian" is suggested by your quick type function. (Could include any number of things "ann" cues "annihilationism", "he" suggests "heretic", etc.)

6. You've been involved in a debate about Baptism on the Internet.

7. You keep buying books about theology despite not having shelf space for the ones you already own.

8. SermonAudio is an app on your phone or tablet.

9. You dream of having a premium Logos package.

10.  You use any of the following acronyms: WCF, BFM, LBCF, WSC, TGC, SBC, PCA, OPC, RCA, UMC, or LCMS on a regular basis.

11. You complain to your spouse about the bad theology of funny TV commercials.

12. You've taken the time to look up why Gordon Clark and Cornelius Van Til didn't like one another.

13. You care who wins the Logos theologian bracket each March.

14. You have an opinion about tulip(s) and daisy(s) that has nothing to do with flowers.

15. You know more about John Quncy Adams the Baptist than you do John Quincy Adams the president.


How did you do?
