“In order for things to become clear, you need to be on LSD before listening to online sermons and interviews”

That might help… yet there are gems in there is this quote is any indication…

So much of what Rollins said lost me in its circular manner…

Why didn’t anyone point to the disclaimer at the bottom of his website?

Borrowed Breath,

So much of what Rollins said lost me in its circular manner… though I don;t think he does it to be foggy, I think it’s just how he thinks…

That said, I do like that quip.

Neil are you surprised?

These folk love “the truth”, but have an allergy to honesty.

ironic.

OK – so maybe I came down a little ahrd on Pastorboy… but it’s a pet peeve of mine to refuse to interact with someone based on their stance on another issue – and to add “nuff said” – blech!

Greg Boyd -

I am attracted to aspects of open theism
I am completely anationalistic
Purgatory – Goofy.

2/3 approval rating!

Greg Boyd is an open-theist. Nuff said. – Pastorboy

The N. T. Wright essay linked to in the other thread made me think of this swipe. Wright laments the simplicity of having people raise their hands if they like so-an-so so they can be written off… he also chides the shallowness and postmodern lack of actual thinking that so much GBA employs.

Comments like this betray a shallowness, a laziness, an unwillingness to engage people’s thoughts and to think for yourself.

If you dislike what Boyd says, say what it is – but stop wasting out bandwidth on such shallow and meaningless declarations as this!

The last time I saw it, it was the pastor’s son…

How fitting. PK’s are notorious (just kidding).

Who was the chap that pulled the short straw and had to wear the devil’s outfit?
