Our Evangelical Columnist Press Release

March 11, 2005
For Immediate Release:

THE TOILET PAPER AND NEW LIFE CHURCH PASTOR TO JOIN FORCES

The Toilet Paper ? a new Colorado Springs-based monthly tabloid of dubious moral value ? is pleased to announce that Rob Brendle, Associate Pastor at New Life Church, has agreed to be the TP?s new evangelical columnist!

Beginning in April 2005, Pastor Rob Brendle will field questions about evangelical Christianity from a wide range of thinkers TBD about issues such as homosexuality, abortion/choice, church politics, the nature of the Bible, etc.

Founded by Noel Black ? former Arts & Entertainment Editor at the Colorado Springs Independent ? in October 2004, The Toilet Paper features regular columns and features such as Church Kicker, Grandma?s Good Old-Fashioned Sex Advice (featuring Editor Noel Black?s real-life grandmother), From the Mouth of Hell (by Richard Hell of the legendary punk band Richard Hell and the Voidoids), Eyewitness Flava (by Colorado cult-celebrity Brian Nemeth), and many more. The Toilet Paper has a circulation of 5000 papers at over 100 location throughout Colorado Springs, Denver and Pueblo (see distribution list below).

In December, 2004, Black put a call out for an evangelical columnist in the third issue of The Toilet Paper because he believes Colorado Springs ? home of Focus on the Family, New Life Church and many other evangelical organizations ? is at the epicenter of the new moral values culture. Black also felt that the local media was failing to address the ideological divide that separates the progressive community in Colorado Springs from the moral values conservatives.

Both Black and Pastor Brendle have both agreed that no punches will be pulled where disagreements over theology and politics are concerned, though both aim to keep the dialogue (which will take place via email) ?fair.?
