Kynn: I’m praying for your dad, and I’m very sorry for your family’s loss. I wish things could be different.
As I recall, documentation of Sanger’s beliefs was posted as part of the argument. Whether or not it applies today is a different matter, but suggesting that Sanger was a Bad Person™ isn’t a conspiracy theory, it’s a fact. I think Bart did put on a tinfoil hat about something or another, but that’s just Bart. I wasn’t paying attention. (JN)
I doubt you’ll find too many believers in the Clinton Body Count around here, but I could be wrong. And you wouldn’t be dismissing my statements about a concerted campaign to discredit conservatives on issues of race if you’d heard the conversations I’ve heard. I said “I don’t know” to be charitable, but at least one of the emails I saw was clearly labeled as coming from a Dallas-area DNC person.
On Halloween: Thanks to Scott, I’ve got a copy of the 95 Theses in Latin, and I managed to get it down to one page once I saw a representation of the original and realized that it needed to be in two columns. I even used a fancy font and used Roman numerals to mark them, just because that seems old.
Then I printed up an English copy to match it, for when people ask me to read the Latin. ;-)
Kynn: That’s actually quite a good analysis of some of the problems with the liberal church today. I would suggest that some of the problems you describe are insurmountable without giving up some of what you consider the positives of “progressive” churches. For example, is there a way to develop a clear gospel message and still cling to the beliefs that Moslems and Jews will do alright so long as they’re sincere? Since such a belief appears to be quite antithetical to Scripture, and since Scripture seems to have quite a bit to say about the gospel, I don’t see how. That liberal Christianity doesn’t provide much of anything to the unsaved is the clearest and most honest indictment of that group that I’ve heard in a while. Since Christianity is about the gospel, which is good news, a group that doesn’t really have good news is really missing the entire point of Christianity, I think.
Thanks for the post.
