Be himself.... as he was. If anyone has a problem with that I suppose their job is to blog/write articles about it (using lots of oughts and shoulds!) and pretend they could have done better. I'm sure the author of this article wouldn't have "missed a chance here to put in a good word for the Christian faith" if he answered callers live time...
What's wrong with that Boyd! ;)
Gee...
that's my 2c,

Greg is hard on Pat Robertson sometimes, so I'll give the complainers that much... Post Edited (selah) : 8/14/2006 8:11:02 AM (GMT-5) | | Back to Top | | |

Uh...I don't get what this guy's problemo is. I mean there are certain things that Greg agrees with the Left about and disagrees with the Right. So what? Now these guys are complaining that he didn't use this as an opportunity to evangelize. Good grief...

(I mean, look at how many people out there misunderstand the Open Theist position... a lot of times, people add on to it what's not there)
I'm sure Greg's already anticipated this... and still considered it worth it to step out and state his main position in hopes that at least a few will reconsider mixing the Cross and the Sword. We see how divided people can get over this issue, and it seems many are using a sentence here and there to support their own views. (I'm pretty sure I'm guilty too...) [As Bill and Ted approach Socrates]:
Bill: "Yo Ted, say something profound, dude."
Ted: "Oh, yeah. Right. All we are...is dust in the wind dude."
Bill: ..."Dust".... "Wind" ... "Duuuude".
Socrates: (gasping in awe) "Like sands through the hour glass, so are the days of our lives." | | Back to Top | | |

As such he as put himself in a position to be a target for criticism. Goes with the territory. So I really have no sympathy for him. One should go into such wars with their eyes wide open. I can only say I hope Doctor Boyd returns to theology rather than politics, which is his much stronger suit. His past couple of books were pretty weak... | | Back to Top | | |
