Links

Here are the obligatory links that every site is apparently supposed to supply.

Do with them as you will.





Strangely Warmed Forum

Following the link below, you will find the Strangely Warmed Forums. Strangely Warmed is devoted to satrical Wesleyan news.

However, behind the satire is a desire to critically and seriously engage the Wesleyan history and its theology in order that a clearer vision for the future might emerge.

The Forum provides a context in which Wesleyans can share ideas, raise serious issues, share experiences and just talk, as Wesleyans, about their common history and beliefs. It only takes a second to register, so stop on by and bring some friends!

Submit Content

Although we are quite smitten with our own abilities to manufacture quality satire, we are ever on the lookout for new and good ideas. This is where you come in. If you have a great idea for a story, or have written your own, feel free to submit it. There are several benefits to participating:

1. You will not be paid;

2. Your idea will probably be blatantly plagarized; and

3. If we do use your name, a copy of your submission will be forwarded to your District Superintendent for review.

All submissions should attain to at least the following criterion:

1. At least 500 words. We don't care if it's a full blown essay, but wimpy 3-sentence submissions will not fly.

2. All content must relate explicitly to Wesleyan theology, polity, ecclesiology, etc. As much as we love making fun of United Methodists and Nazarenes, this is not the place.

3. We are aiming for real satire of The Wesleyan Church. Funny stories that your pastor tells on Sunday morning will probably not be applicable (unless, of course, he/she is satarizing The Wesleyan Church).

4. No real names of people or churches is allowed. Feel free to blast Districts, because that can make for pretty funny stuff.

Get to it!

Contact Us

Here at Strangely Warmed, we actively apply quantum physics and chaos theory in responding to queries. In a nutshell, this means, simply, that your questions and/or comments will be subjected to the radomness of quantum probability. If the wave probability happens to collapse in such a manner that your query efficaciously engages our systems' processes, you can be assured that a response will be forthcoming. However, if the superpositional actuality of your question/comment is resolved in an alternate dimension, Strangely Warmed can, of course, bear no responsibility for non-local actualization of your request.

If you wish to entrust a reply to infinitely chaotic probabilities contingent within an infinite number of universes, please forward all queries to:

depthdeception@hotmail.com

About the Site

Welcome to Strangely Warmed, the preeminent site for all news Wesleyan. Well, we should say "pseudo-news"...none of the stories on this site are real (but don't tell anyone!) All content is purely satirical and meant for entertainment purposes only.

If you are offended by any of the content on this site, one of two options are possible.

1.) You want to be offended.

2.) You are way too serious about life.

Neither is a good option, so stop being offended!

Now, about us...

We are two brothers who were born in The Wesleyan Church and have been preceeded by two generations of ministers within the denomination. Each of us has a Pastoral Ministries degree from a Wesleyan college and one of us is currently attending a Wesleyan "approved" seminary. With this experience, we have plenty of fodder. This site is the product of funny, scary and ridiculous experiences that we have had throughout out lives within The Wesleyan Church, translated into satire, dry wit and humorous fiction. We hope to update this site often and with quality content.
