I am serious here: Ask God. He knows and He may be trying to tell you something-really!!!

Yeah, I can come up with all sorts of catchy post titles that would attract readers. Sadly, like you, I don’t have the posts to go with said titles.

You’re probably right: it’s probably just jumping around in my head from TV, or from the fact that it is indeed a powerful statement, Christian or not. Glad you liked the post, by the way.

I do, however, believe you’re (mostly) flying solo in thinking that Snazzle Frazzle Ziff Raff competes with “Forgive me father, for I have sinned”. While I find it catchy, and you may as well, I think it would scare most people away.

Hm, I can’t say I’ve encountered this before. I do sometimes think of great titles that I think would look great and attract tons of readers. Things like: Why You Shouldn’t Have Fun in Bed, or: My Mac is Speaking in Tongues. You, know catchy phrases that people just have to click, he he. The only problem with those is, of course, that I have no such post to go with them.

As for your phantom headline, I’d say it does come from its ubiquitous TV presence or, more generally, from the deep-rooted power with which a sentence like this resonates with us. It’s a super headline, I want to hear it and you want to tell it.

Only, of course, there’s nothing to tell. Except for this, be it strange but great post.

Btw, Snazzle Frazzle Ziff Raff, would have been a good contender.
