“Earth's crammed with heaven, And every common bush afire with God; But only he who sees, takes off his shoes - The rest sit round it and pluck blackberries.”

| Posted 6/3/2010 11:43 AM (GMT -6) | | OL: Yup. And (if you think about it) most LIBERATION theologians, right?
How about this: Most Christian "reconciliation" persons and activity separate the existence of various "people groups" from THEIR grounding. What you end up with is the facile attempts at "diversity", "tolerance" and "multiculturalism" that Evangelicals now have on the landscape. Ask Bethel.
Feel me?
Brandon: I hear ya on that. But again, this is kinda like the question, "Why do atheists act morally?" Ultimately, acting morally is grounded in God though they may not know it or better, deny it. However, though I see the importance of the grounding, I'm still quite satisfied that diversity, tolerance and multiculturalism exist period. Most people (non-Christian) are not concerned with the a priori philosophical reasons behind reconciliation.

| Posted 6/4/2010 7:01 AM (GMT -6) | | Read this this morning at the "Evangelical Universalist" discussion board:
"However, Chauncy was a firm Bible- believing Christian and whilst he sadly came to doubt and then reject the classical doctrine of the Trinity we must stress that he did so because he believed it to be unbiblical (it was not uncommon in this period for Bible-based Christians to reject the Trinity as unbiblical)."
Think about what the imlications are for theological enquiry.
