Turning Away from Jesus
By Garret Keizer
Page 43
“…How does a Christian population implicated in militarism, usury, sweatshop labor, and environmental rape find a way to sleep at night? Apparently, by making a very big deal out of not sleeping with Gene Robinson. Or, on the flip side, by making approval of Gene Robinson the litmus test of progressive integrity, a stance that I have good reason to believe would impress no one so little as Gene Robinson himself…”
The doctrinal difference with Keizer notwithstanding, this is an EXCELLENT article.
It facilitated a better understanding of the current turmoil in the Anglican Communion, and by extension ‘Christendom’ at large, clearer and in a larger context.
Highly recommended for thinking Church folk!
