Becoming Ok With Obama's Rick Warren Choice
Knight of Faith says ::
Priscilla: I, too, celebrate a heterogenous household of faith that includes traditionalists and progressives. The crisis of the Anglican Communion, however, illustrates that neither group is willing to tolerate, let alone love, the other. Episcopali . . .READ MORE >

Priscilla says ::
Dear Andrew, Thank you for blogging at TOJ. I don\'t know what TOJ readers think on average about homosexuality, but I am writing primarily to say, here, at least, is one reader who is happy to have gay and lesbian sisters and brothers in faith . . .READ MORE >

Mr. Pygmalion: I will not be held responsible for your disillusionment with institutional Christianity. That is your personal business. I prefer interlocutors who engage the substance of my views rather than ones who attack the man. Ad hominems do no . . .READ MORE >

Benson: I mean no personal offense by this, but you are the reason that I have become disillusioned with the Church to the point of atheism. You seem to be a zealous supporter of the Church\'s policy of maintaining power through subduing conflicting . . .READ MORE >
Becoming Ok With Obama's Rick Warren Choice

Mr. Forrest: I understand why you regard Rick Warren as an opponent because he opposes same-sex marriage, but that is only one area of discord where there is probably areas of more significant accord, such as the articles of faith affirmed in the Nic . . .READ MORE >

Old fashioned, Another attempt at levity:) Call me casual. You are right in saying that in terms of offering civil rights to all men and women, regardless of sexual orientation, Rick Warren and Barack Obama are my opponents. You are also right . . .READ MORE >

Kazimir (is this a first or last name?): I hesitate to respond to your last comment because you did not care to engage the substance of what I wrote you. I would like to hear why you identify Rick Warren as the institutional church when the church is . . .READ MORE >
Becoming Ok With Obama's Rick Warren Choice
Kazimir says ::
Mr. Benson, it is difficult for me to tell who is more eager to \"maintain the unity of the Spirit in the bond of peace\" here. You are quite exercised over the thought that Mr. Forrest is creating \"family\" discord with inappropriate \"nomenclatur . . .READ MORE >
Becoming Ok With Obama's Rick Warren Choice
Knight of Faith says ::
Mr. Forrest: As long as you are willing to concede that you and Rick Warren belong to the same \"we\"--the household of faith--then you can adopt a more fitting nomenclature, regarding him as a brother in Christ rather than an an opponent. The discor . . .READ MORE >

Kazimir: You ask me: \"What\'s wrong with individual Christians taking sides against the church?\" In context, you are identifying Rick Warren as the institutional church. That is a peculiar identification when the church is an aggregate of individua . . .READ MORE >
Clement, Badiou, and Prometheus: On Christianity as Mediated Revolution
Void says ::
It must be really frustrating to fervently believe all the correct answers are in the past, quite tough to remember that original thought is never equal to those of the patristics in the great law of theological diminishing returns. It took a great d . . .READ MORE >

With all due respect, I think you missed my point completely. In terms of which community I hold my allegiance to, it is the human race. You wrote: \"The coincidence was not lost on me when two gay men with the same first name, who both profes . . .READ MORE >
